Chapter 115

***Chastity***

The next two months went by quickly. I did end up going home during the mate ball. I spent my first night in Rowen’s apartment that weekend. Jax wasn’t exactly happy about that, but Rowen, and I were. He had come here to visit twice as well. I was becoming more comfortable with our sexual activity too. I was less embarrassed, and nervous every time. I didn’t know what was next, but I was curious.

Classes were going well, and I was really enjoying them. They’re challenging, but so interesting. I still kept ahead as much as possible. Lexi, and I were still looking for another person to ask about coming back to our pack with us, but we were hopeful we would find someone.

After the issue with Julie on Valentine’s Day, she stayed away from all of us, Lexi, and me especially. After the mate ball she disappeared. We found out that she had found her mate at the ball, and instead of him staying with her here until she finished school, she dropped out, and left with him. I was disappointed for her as she had worked so hard to get here, but in the end it wasn’t up to me, or my choice.

I did make a new friend though. His name is Zeke, and he’s the teacher’s aid for our pediatric care class. He’s not sure if he wants to go on to be a doctor, or become a professor. He said time would tell. He seems pretty nice, and we get along well. When Lexi isn’t available he’s become my study partner. I’m not sure if he’s supposed to be doing that since he’s an aid, but he’s been helpful. He’s about 5’7″ with dark. brown hair, and brown eyes. He’s a little on the skinner side, but in his own way he’s kind of cute. He’s not an Omega like me, but that’s fine too.

He’s from a smaller pack so he asks me a lot of questions about what it’s like being from a bigger pack. He also makes me laugh, a lot because he’s really funny. He can make a joke out of anything. He’s also very smart.

Colby isn’t a big fan of Zeke, but he’s my friend so it doesn’t bother me. I did agree to keep him from going to my room. Colby warned me that Rowen wouldn’t like the idea of an unmated, and non family member male being in my bedroom. That made sense to me so I agreed. I also don’t go to his room. Most of the time, when we hang out it’s either in the cafeteria or the library together. He sometimes complains about that, but he’ll just have to deal with it.

Today I was in the library with Zeke, studying. He has an exam in one of his classes, and I’m working on a paper. I was completely lost in my reading when I felt something tap my foot. I looked up, and saw Zeke smiling at me. I gave him a half smile back then went back to my book. He tapped my foot again, and I looked back up with a questioning look.

“What are you doing this weekend?” Zeke whispered.

“Going home to spend sometime with my family. This weekend is my birthday so they want to celebrate with me.” I responded quietly.

“Oh.” Zeke pouted.

“Why?” I asked, confused.

“I wanted to take you out this weekend.”

“Oh. Sorry.”

“It’s alright. Maybe when you get back I can take you to dinner, and a movie?”

“Um. Maybe.”

“When do you leave?”

“Tomorrow, after class.”

“Oh. When is your birthday?”

“Saturday.”

“And how old will you be?”

7’ll be 19.”

“Oh. I see.”

“Something wrong?”

“No. When do you come back?”

“Sunday some time.”

“Can I take you out next weekend?”

“Um. Maybe.”

“Do you already have plans for next weekend?”

“Kind of.”

“Oh, Do you know what has been planned for your birthday to celebrate?”

“Rowen won’t tell me. He says it’s a surprise.”

“Rowen? Who’s Rowen?”

I looked at Zeke, confused. I talked about Rowen all of the time. I knew full well I had told him about

Rowen being my mate

“I’ve told you about Rowen. I talk about him all the time.” I stated.

“You have? I don’t remember. He’s your cousin or something right?” Zeke asked.

“No. Rowen is my mate.”

“That can’t be right?”

“Why can’t it?”

“It doesn’t matter. Why don’t we make plans for next weekend now?”

“I have to see what is going on next weekend first. Alpha Jeremy’s birthday is next weekend. I need to find out if they’re doing something to celebrate, and if Rowen is coming here for it.”

“Why? You’re not a member of Dark Moon.”

“I’m not, but Rowen is family to Jeremy. If they do something to celebrate, Rowen will come, and I’ll be going with him.”

When we finished in the library for the day, Zeke offered to walk me to the gym with me, which I agreed. to. Due to dropping self defense, Marcus, and Colby took to training Lexi, Norm, and myself in the gym 3 times a week.

furrowed my brow as I watched Zeke walk away. His shoulders were slumped. I think there was a chance he liked me, but I wasn’t sure. I hoped I was wrong. I didn’t want to have to hurt his feelings. With a shrug, I made my way to the cafeteria. After getting my food,
