Thankfully, just down the road is a little strip with places to eat, get coffee and buy the basic necessities. It’s also where the pharmacy I got that test from is.

We decided to walk since it’s relatively close, and while it might be a bit far for Emily’s human legs, she didn’t object.

I watch on in amusement as Kyle and Dwayne squeeze in on either side of Emily, and start asking her random questions about her family. Meanwhile, Colby slowly falls back, allowing Sebastian to move ahead of him. The three of them effectively distract Emily so she doesn’t notice Colby hanging back to talk to me. We slow our stride until we’re far enough back that Emily won’t overhear us.

I smile at the sound of Sebastian’s voice up ahead. “Is it true human women only bathe once a week?” I roll my eyes when he throws a wink back at me.

Emily makes an indignant sound, making me think Bas knew just what to say to get her to start ranting. She does exactly that, waving her arms around as she tells them that most women shower once, sometime twice a day. Kyle’s response is priceless, asking if human women smell bad, and if that’s why they need to shower twice.

I chuckle quietly at that. Those three are a pretty awesome team, I must admit.

I move closer to Colby, brushing my hand against his, but not actually reaching out to grab it. I don’t want to make things worse on the off-chance Emily were to turn back and see me holding his hand, even if it was only platonic.

"So I take it things aren't going very well between you two?" I casually ask as we walk side by side, our hands brushing against each other softly, as if we’re unable to keep from touching. It’s a very wolf thing to crave comfort and I’ve found myself seeking out that comfort more in the past week. Having three wolf guards today has helped with that a lot. And even though the situation with Sebastian is new and exciting, it still feels comforting to have Colby to talk to. He’s my best friend after all.

We continue walking in silence for a minute before Colby surprises me by twining our fingers together. He sighs sadly and gives my hand a small squeeze before letting go, but I can tell it pains him to do so. It sucks that he is being denied this small comfort, but I won’t push him about it. It’s up to him to decide what he wants from his relationship, not me.

Colby keeps his gaze on the ground as we walk, kicking a rock in front of him. “I don’t know what I’m supposed to do or say. No matter what, Emily seems to find some reason to be angry with me, despite the fact that I’ve told her my true mate doesn’t know what she is to me. She doesn’t believe me, though. She demanded that I tell her who it is, but I have a feeling if I do, things will only get worse.
