Tyler.

Having kinda messed up my father’s plan for me was actually comical. Sure, I was mated to Topaz, just like he’d wanted, but not in the way he’d hoped.

I was now sitting with Jackson, discovering he quite enjoyed sports and cars like me, while Darcy was upstairs having a mild panic about it all.

He seemed to be okay with everything that had occurred, but the actual way of dealing with it was stressing him out.

Topaz still wanted to travel, and I didn’t want to get in the way of that.

But I also doubted I could be away from her for long, because even right now, I was craving being near her, despite how she was trawling through her phone while sprawled out on the couch only a few feet away.

“You think he’s freaking out?” Jackson asked once our conversation had slowed, nodding at the ceiling.

“Probably,” Topaz answered from across the room, not looking up from her phone.

I knew she was on edge too. Not about being mated with us, but the consequences of it.

So, naturally, she was distracting herself with videos on Facebook.

“He’s always been the logical thinker,” I noted. Darcy had always excelled at school, it was something I’d been slightly jealous of. Sure, I got all the girls, but he had his own job as a Veterinarian and was doing well for himself.

“I don’t think my parents will be too fussed about it, they’re easy going,” Jackson stated as he eyed Topaz.

I chewed my lip for a moment before jumping up and heading upstairs to check on him.

This situation involved all of us, and it wasn’t up to him to take on all the stress himself.

I took the stairs two at a time, finding Darcy standing in the bathroom, frowning at his reflection.

“You doing okay?” I asked as I leaned against the door frame.

“Still wrapping my head around it all,” Darcy sighed, giving me a weak smile. “We’re all mated now. Our lives won’t be the same.”

“Does it bother you? You’ve known her the longest,” I asked.

“No, I always loved T, but I just told myself it was a friendship love, that that was all it was. But I was kidding myself. None of my past relationships worked out because I always wanted her to be a part of my life. Now she will be. But having to share her? That’s just… weird. And you’re next in line to be Chief, what does that mean for us?” Darcy asked.

I pursed my lips and crossed my arms.

“Only asking my father will answer that. He’s Chief, surely he can tell us what will be expected. I dunno how he’ll react to finding out we’re all mated to her,” I shrugged.

“I could find out how it happened, go back to Jewels Cafe and see if they know anything,” Darcy suggested.

“Then what? It can’t be reversed. Once mated, that’s that. It’s for life, true mates. We should all be over the moon and enjoying it, cherishing that we’ve found our mate,” I said.
