Chapter 51: Ayla

Surprised didn’t begin to cover what I was feeling. How did she know about Theo? Had he told Kylee? Goddess, please don’t let him have told Kylee. I worked to push my anxiety down. I just needed to give her a chance to explain.

“How?” I managed to choke out.

She squeezed my hand. “Ayla, I met my mate when I went to the Greytooth pack to see Kylee. She wanted my help with the mating ceremony. My mate is Briggs, Theo’s Beta.”

Tsmiled. “I’m happy for you, Mina. I only meet him once, but

Beta Briggs seems like a good man.”

“He is,” she said with a bright smile, but it faded quickly. “What about Alpha Kingston? Is he good to you?”

“He is,” I replied. “He has really been there for me since… since I left the pack.”

“You have no idea how relieved I am to hear that, Ayla,” Mina stated. “I’ve been worried sick ever since I found out what Theo did to you. And everything Kylee did.”

Anger rolled off of her at the mention of my sister.

“Mina, Kylee doesn’t know about me and Theo, does she?”

“No,” she confirmed, shaking her head. “Briggs insisted you didn’t want her to know. So, none of us have told her.”

“Thank you. I just don’t want to put that on her.”

“Ayla,” Mina scolded. “She a liar. You have no reason to keep protecting her.”

“Mina, it doesn’t matter what she’s done to me,” I insisted. “I just want both of us to move on from all of this. As long as she doesn’t know, she and Theo will be happy. Then I can move on with Kingston.”
