50 Brighton’s festival

~Tamia~ 1

Avery and I insisted on sharing the same

room. Alpha Jake offered to have his pack

doctor examine me, but I refused. I

planned on managing the condition until I got back to the north.

“That went well; too well, I must say,”

Avery linked me, trying to be cautious,

and I smiled at her.

“He believed Leo when he told him but

still felt insulted until I showed up,” I linked her back, explaining my deduction.

“Alpha Jake Brighton is an old-fashioned man. He expected word to have gone to

Sylvester’s ears of the atrocity in Brighton, and he expected Sylvester to apologise personally even though he had no hand in it. It is an ego thing for the old

man, nothing more.” I linked Avery, and she laughed. 1

“What do you think about Councilwoman Pamela? The woman reeks of treachery,”

Avery said aloud, and I laughed. It would

be unwise for us to remain silent all

through the room.

Being former Lunas of top packs, we understood the politics. Alpha Brighton

wanted to keep an eye on us and our

activities in his territory, so he offered we

stay in his house; I was sure people were listening to our conversation.

We had dinner with Alpha Jake, Mikail, his nephew, Iris, his daughter and Donald, his son. His son and nephew

were about my age, and I figured Donald would succeed his father soon. His

daughter, Iris, kept staring at us during dinner, and I was a bit uncomfortable,

but I let it be.

We ate in silence and returned to our

room.

“Donald did not seem to like us. I do not know what his deal is. Jake’s nephew, Mikail, was worse. He kept staring at us.

Honestly, I can’t wait to be out of this

place,” Avery said, lying next to me, and I

smiled. The feeling was mutual.

“I am missing Marcel,” She said and

sighed.

“He didn’t want me to come, but I

insisted. Right now, I just want to head

back to the north and never leave his side.

It has just been a few hours, and I am

missing him so badly,” She said, and I smiled because I felt the same way.

I wondered what Sylvester was doing. As much as I wanted to place a call, it was

best I didn’t.

I was about to fall asleep when my phone.

rang. I did not need to guess who it was. I

answered in a heartbeat.

“Miss me already, Green eyes?” he said,

and I giggled on the phone.

“More than you can imagine. Would have returned in the morning, but Alpha Jake

invited us to a festival tomorrow evening,

so we will return after the festival,” I

said, and he grumbled on the phone.

We talked about his day, and I handed the phone to Avery to speak with Marcel. Apparently, she did not come with her

phone.

We said good night and fell asleep.
