Chapter 160

160 Better days ahead .

Lyla I let out the breath I held as soon as I put enough distance between me and Ramscy .

Leaning against the wall outside the pack house , I took deep , restorative breaths to calm my racing heart .

Nymeris stirred within me , growling with approval .

Well done , Lyla .

I thought you were going to crack under that steely gaze .

The exact words I need , I hissed , pushing down to the base of the wall , letting the tension drain from my body .

My heart was still pounding , and my palms felt clammy .

All of this happened because of you .

If you hadnt gone to Ramsey , acting like … I trailed off , unable to finish the words .

A bitch ? A slut ? Nymeris finished , Is that the new name you want to call yourself ? I groaned , pushing myself to my feet .

That was close , Nymeris .

Its okay if Im freaking out .

I muttered under my breath .

Just tell him it was you , Lyla .

Whats the worst that can happen that hasnt happened before ? You heard what he said to the High priestess .

Hes looking for you ; he didnt sound like he will harm you when he sees you .

Hes our mate , Lyla … how many times do I have to say this .

I scoffed .

You dont know Ramsey like I do , Nymeris .

You just met him .

And youve known him since forever ? she retorted .

Lyla … you have this bad habit of picking through someones words and hearing whatever suits your mood , and then you self sabotage and act like the victim .

Ramsey is a nice person , better than your Nathan .

I opened my mouth several times , too shocked to make a sentence .

Ramsey is nicer than Nathan ? Yes ! she replied .

Nathan bears grudges and looks like the kind of person that would remind you every day of your life , while Ramsey is only cold on the exterior .

Hes a sweet man .

Oh , please ! I hissed .

You dont have to say nice words about him to get in bed with him .

Mate or not , Im not ready to trust him , Nymeris .

Im speaking from experience and another reminder : Nathan is the person in our life now .

Hes my boyfriend .

So , please dont confuse it and forget yourself .
