Chapter Nineteen
Evie
Dinner with my parents went well, though I hadnât been nervous at all. I already knew how much Mom and Dad loved Cory and they were happy he was my mate.
Dad wasnât happy learning the truth of why it took me so long for me to do a full moon with Cory. I think he was more hurt to know I never confided in him about the bullying and wanted names. Everette and Cory even joined him in trying to get me to spill, but thankfully, Mom backed me up.
The following evening, we met Coryâs parents for dinner. Celeste and Markus wouldnât let me call them by their proper titles anymore. Dinner was going well until Lucien asked why it took us so long to figure out we were mates, and we had a repeat performance of the previous night were I had to explain what happened, and everyone wanted names. I even noticed Kara taking over a few times, subtly trying to touch me to see if she could get a vision of who bullied me. Celeste apologized, saying Kara was being an protective mama wolf.
I didnât see a point in dragging up the past. It was a decade ago. People grew up and changed. It wouldnât be fair to bring up an incident that happened when we were all young and immature and hold it against them now.
I repeated the same story the following night during movie night with Jo. Everyone was mad on my behalf, but honestly, it was all on me. I kept it quiet. I let it affect me. I was the one that listened.
Outside of meals, Cory and I were spending most of our time on the alpha floor. Jo, Melinda, and James tried to give us space, but they were being ridiculous about it, not even wanting to show up for breakfast to give us our privacy.
Yes, we were having a lot of sex right now, but what newly mated couple wouldnât? They werenât going to walk in to see us fucking on the kitchen table. Not that I was opposed... but knowing when they were expected to show up was enough to make both of us behave.
The morning gatherings around the breakfast table became longer than usual once Zi joined us with Molly because they became unofficial work meetings. She was a little nervous at first. She still felt like she didnât quite belong there because she hadnât accepted James. What she didnât realize was that there was a difference between waiting to complete a bond and rejecting a bond. Zi was not rejecting the bond, or James. You could see the way they looked and interacted with each other. They would get there. She just needed time to come to terms with her situation and her place in the pack and our group.
Every morning, our friends took time to fill us in on things going on at the office and the pack. We were heading out on Saturday morning to Vegas, and if everything went right, We would be back by Monday morning and back to work on Tuesday.
