The Luna’s Choice by Kat Silver

Chapter 30: Ayla

Sunday had been amazing and exactly what both Theo and I needed. We spent most of the day talking. It was like our first days together. Before everyone knew about us, and we were just Theo and Ayla getting to know each other better.

But Monday came around, and it was time to return to real life.

Maggie was with me in my classes today, which was even more pleasant than I had expected. It wasn’t just because we got along so well. I no longer felt like I was drawing so much attention. Maggie wasn’t supposed to appear as a bodyguard, and she didn’t. She blended right in as a fellow student. I had missed a couple of classes the week before, which I felt guilty enough about since it was the first week of the semester. But not feeling like eyes were on me allowed me to catch up in my first class quickly. I expected the same for Professor Armand‘ s class as we entered.

We weren’t the first to arrive by far, but we were still a few minutes early. Like I had with Jimmy, I let Maggie pick our seats to choose the most advantageous position. She picked the same general area that Jimmy had, and I smiled to myself. We took out our textbooks and laptops and were discussing an upcoming assignment when a familiar voice made my skin crawl.

“I guess I shouldn’t be surprised to see you here,” Amy said from behind my shoulder. “You really are so jealous of Kylee that you just stole her entire life.”

Maggie hadn’t even realized she was talking to me until I glanced over my shoulder.

“Hello, Amy,” I said casually. “I didn’t realize you were in this class.”

“Stealing her mate wasn’t enough. You had to steal her education, too?” she hissed.

Maggie started to turn around.
