CHAPTER 140

After feeding Asher, I know that there can't be anymore stalling. As much as I'm dying to feel our mate bond snap into place, I'm still a bit nervous about the change. When I drudgingly make the descent down the stairs, Declan is waiting for me with his devastatingly, handsome smile. He, along with others, think this is a good thing happening, but it's not them that it's happening to.

Cici, bless her heart, argued with me for twenty minutes before I went up to feed my son, wanting to be at the training field when the change takes place. Her exact words were, "I am your best friend, through thick and thin, good times and bad times, always and forever. I'm going to be there whether you want me to or not!" Even me threatening to use my Luna command on her didn't deter her, so I reluctantly agreed. Of course, because we don't know if it will be dangerous, Spencer insists on being there as well, you know, to protect his mate.

Only seeing Declan at the bottom of the steps, gets my hopes up in that maybe my best friend changed her mind, "Are you ready?” Declan asks as he holds out his hand for me to take.

"Does it really matter if I'm not?" I chuckle dryly.

"Hey, this may be a good thing. Yeah, there is going to be drama that comes with it, but we will handle it together." He takes hold of my chin and lifts it, so he can brush his lips against mine.

"Hey, are we chopped liver? She has us as well!" Cici's loudmouth comes from down the hallway.

When I turn to look at her, she's carrying a huge bag of popcorn and a six-pack of beer, "What in the world are you doing with all Dividing into pages now! that?"

"What? You don't think I'm just going to sit and watch you go through this change without having my favorite snack!" she responds with a wink.

"This isn't a fucking movie, Cici, this is my life!" I snicker.

"Well, it should be. It'd make for a great streaming movie!" She grins and both males laugh.

"Life must be very interesting for you with this firecracker as your mate, Spence!" Declan claps my Beta on the shoulder.

"Oh, you have no idea!" Spencer laughs.

"Okay, okay, enough of making fun of Cici," my friend says dryly, "It' s time to go watch Luna turn into Super Luna.....”

"Really? Super Luna?" I cock a brow at her.

"Hey, I find it kinda hot!" Declan grins as he pulls me towards the door.

"Yeah, until she whoops up on your ass, Alpha!" Cici gives Declan a cheesy ass grin.

"Nothing wrong with that, as long as we can have make up sex afterwards and she allows me to dominate her again." He brings my hand up to his lips and kisses it.
