Tattooed Luna by Mrs Smith

Chapter 0038
“Why did you stop me?” I was disappointed.
Colt just gave me a look. “Ice, c’mon,”
Pulling out her journal, I started skimming it. “Yeah, yeah. See you boys.” Walking off to the cafeteria, it
was already filling up. Putting the journal away, I waited in line. Colt walked in and sat down beside Kara.
She looked happy but was at the same time. As soon as I got my lunch, I felt someone tap my shoulder.
“Hey girl! Come sit with us!” Emmy had a huge smile on her face. Looking at their table, Alec just sat
down. Looking at my table, Ace was staring at me.
“Maybe tomorrow. I’m actually not hungry.” Throwing away my food, I bee-lined right out of there and
went outside.
The wind caused my hair to whip my face as I kept going. I expected Emmy to follow me, or even Ace but it was Colt that caught up to me. Gabbing my shoulders, he forced me to turn and look at him. 1
“What’s wrong? You never let that girl stuff bother you before.”

“It’s not them. Well, not directly. It’s everything. You realize we will be 18 in four days. For you, nothing changes. For me, everything changes.” I wanted to confess my feelings to him but something stopped me.
“Come sit,” Colt took me to a near by tree and we sat down. He put his arm over my shoulders to comfort.
me. “Tell me what’s really bothering you.”
“Why do yo-“I started
“Don’t. The truth.”
“S hit. Everything. What if Ace is my mate? I’ll be stuck here. This whole time we said no feelings and if one of us developed feelings, it would stop. He never told me and now if we aren’t mates, he will be hurt.”
“What about Alec?” Colt asked.
“What about him?” Colt hear my heart s kip a beat.
“Do you think he is your mate?”
The million dollar question. “It just feels different. Ace is like a protector, has been my whole life, but Alec feels like an equal. He doesn’t know me like you guys do so he just lets me do my thing.”
“That’s not what I asked.”
“Alec offers a new place to live away from A nn.”
“Kristen, stop thinking with your head and start feeling from your heart. Your head isn’t going to tell you who your mate is. You have no control over that. Only your heart has these answers.”
“Yeah…” I said lamely.
“I see the way Alec looks at you. You can’t feel guilty for letting go of a childhood friend for your mate.”
“So you think Alec is my mate?” I smirked looking up at him.
“I just think you can’t feel guilty if it isn’t Ace.” Colt have me a half smile.
“Will you feel guilty if it isn’t Kara?” I asked.
“In a way. She isn’t Luna material but I do have feelings for her. I don’t think I’ll have as hard as a time
letting her go.” He didn’t need to add the last part for me to understand his direction.
