Chapter 47

***Chastity***

When I reached the self defense classroom Lexi, and Norm were already there, but sitting away from each other. I didn’t like the idea of not being able to hang out with both of my new friends at the same time. I had to find away to bring them together so I didn’t feel divided between them. I had a feeling Norm would be the easier one to bring to Lexi. I also thought I might know why there were issues between the two.

Their entire pack knew about what happened between her, and her ex-boyfriend. She probably felt humiliated in front of her own pack, and she probably thought they judged her for it. I doubt she ever actually talked to any one in her pack about what had happened. I doubted Norm judged her for what happened.

At the same time, this may not work, but I had to try I walked toward Norm, as he waved and smiled at me. I saw Lexi from the corner of my eye. She looked to me sad, and dejectedly. Hopefully I could change that. We had about 10 minutes to change things so I had to work fast.

“Hey there bad ass. What’s shaking?” Norm asked as I reached him.

“Hey Norm. How are you?” I responded.

7 am wonderful as always. I got to see my sister for a bit this morning. She’s here seeing the folks for a

bit.”

“That’s pretty awesome So I was thinking about what we talked about yesterday concerning Lexi. I think maybe she could use a friend or two. She seems kinda lost right now.”

“I don’t know girl. She’s got that attitude, and all. She may not be interested.”

“Maybe that attitude is so she can protect herself from being hurt again.”

“You think so?”

“Only one way to find out.”

“Yeah. I guess.”

“Come on.”

Norm followed behind me as I walked to the other side of the classroom where Lexi stood by herself. Her blank facial expression didn’t change, but I saw her eyes light up slightly when she saw me. They dimmed when they saw Norm behind me though.

“Hey there Lexi.” I said with a smile when I reached her.

“Hi small fry.” She said quietly

“How are you doing today?”

“Alright.”

“What did you do?”

“Nothing really. Just hung out in my room.”

“OH. Well….um….do you mind if Norm and I work out with you today?”

“…um….I mean if you want to, but if Norm starts in on me about what happened with Anthony I won’t be responsible for what I say.”

“Why the hell would I do that? He’s a shit anyway. Hell he’s not even that good looking. Now Darren. Man

if he was gay, I’d love to take a turn on that ride.” Norm said.

“You know that’s my brother right?” Lexi said with a snort.

“Well yeah of course I do, but he is one damn fine man.”

“Wow! Um….I’ll take your word for it.”

“Yeah.”

“Wait. You said you think Anthony is a shit?”

“Fuck yeah. That jerk didn’t even warn you that he found his mate while he was gone, did he?”

“No.”

“Right. He just showed up, and dropped the bomb on you by kissing her in front of you. Who does that shit? A shithead. That’s who. Good thing he isn’t gonna be our Alpha any more. He’s too selfish for that.”

“Yeah. He did that. He would call me a couple of times a week, strung me along, but never told me he found his mate.”

“See. Shithead. Girl you’re too good for that one any way.”

“Thanks.”

“No problem. Most of the pack thinks the same thing any way. Yeah we’re happy for him that he found his mate. You should be with your fated mate, but the way he handled that shit was all wrong. You don’t do that to another. It’s not right.”

“Yeah. I agree.”

“Good. You’ll find yours girl. Just give it time.”

“Yeah. You’re right.”

“Wait. I don’t understand something you said Norm. He went to Alpha school, and was supposed to be the next Alpha, now you say he’s not. How did that happen?” I asked, confused.

“Well he’s a twin. When they reached eighteen it wasn’t clear which was the stronger one, and which would be the better Alpha so he, and his brother Robert were both sent to school. The choice would be made based on how they did in school, how they handled working with other Alpha’s in school, the relationship they had with the Beta, and how the pack visits went. The final deciding factor was a challenge they had to fight when they returned. Whoever submitted first would not be made Alpha.” Norm explained.

“When they went Robert excelled at everything he did. He made new alliances for us. During his pack visits he strengthened a few alliances, and helped open up some trade agreements. Robert, and our future Beta bonded very well together, even though our Beta started out as best friends with Anthony. When they got back, Anthony submitted to Robert in minutes of the challenge. I don’t think Anthony ever really wanted to be Alpha to begin with. He’d rather party, and have fun.” Lexi continued where Norm left off.

“Oh. Wow. How did Anthony take it?” I asked.

“He laughed. He didn’t really care. Said it was too much responsibility any way” Lexi answered.

“His mate isn’t much better than he is. I heard.” Norm said.

“Yeah. She’s something else. Good thing she’ll never be Luna. She doesn’t have what it takes. She also refuses to spend time learning from Luna Clair. She says her fashion is more important.” Lexi stated.

“What are they doing now?” I questioned.

“She designs clothes, when she isn’t strutting around town. She’s not an Omega, but a warrior. That’s the other way most knew he wasn’t meant to be Alpha. Most Alpha’s mate with Omegas. She isn’t one. He, I’m not really sure to be honest. I know that they’re supposed to be leaving to go back to her pack soon.” Lexi answered.

“Why?”

“Because it’s better for everyone, and she doesn’t like being in a bigger pack. She’s not a star like she is in her pack which is much smaller than our pack, or even Moonlight pack.”

“OH. That’s kind of sad.”

“Nah. It’s for the best. He’s kind of annoying.” Norm interjected it.
