“The girls,” said Calix.
I nodded.
“The girls,” I agreed.
Felix sighed. “Tonya already had suspicions regarding how much I would bring up Chasity. I think Sandra did too,” said Felix.
“Avery didn’t,” said Calix.
“Avery is not too good at putting two and two together,” said Felix bluntly.
Calix frowned and narrowed his eyes but he didn’t say anything. I knew whatever feelings he had for Avery would already be on the decline. The mate-bone was inevitable.
“Are we really gonna break up with them over the phone like Felix suggested?” Asked Calix.
“We shouldn’t,” I said. “They’ll still be members of our pack. We don’t them resenting us. We can’t go about it in a tactless manner. They need to still feel comfortable with us being their Alphas and know that there are no hard feelings,” I explained.
I appreciated the time I had spent with Sandra. She had been a little difficult at times but she was still a decent person in my eyes. Like all my ex-girlfriends, she was beautiful. No one held a candle to Chasity though. Chasity was the sun. Everything and everyone else merely revolved around her.
“We should ask them to meet us here at the mall,” I said.
Felix took a deep breath.
Calix nodded.
We called the girls and asked that they meet us at one of the mall restaurants. We chose a bistro that doubled as a coffee house. The girls showed up with our birthday gifts in hand. My stomach lurched. I felt like such a jerk but honesty and a clean break was the best way to do this. Sandra wr*pped her arms around me and leant in for a k**s. I cupped her face in my hands and leant backwards so that our l*ps wouldn’t meet.
“What?” She asked.
“Please sit down,” I said gently.
Tonya looked alarmed. She eyed Felix curiously. He gave her a chaste hug and encouraged her to sit too. Calix k**sed Avery on the cheek and led her to her seat. It was a large booth so all three of us sat facing the girls. I was directly opposite Sandra who sat in the middle. Avery was in the corner of her side of the booth facing Calix, and Felix and Tonya were on the ends. I joined my hands and rested them on the table, making sure to choose my words carefully.
“Girls, you are all beautiful and special and one day some lucky guys will realise that you three are their mates and they’re gonna be over the moon,” I began.
“Yeah,” said Felix eagerly. “When you meet your mates, you will all be so happy! My ex met hers while we were together and it hurt but I understood. I couldn’t deny her true love like that. She’s so happy with her fated mate now and I waited my turn and now that turn is here,” said Felix.
I looked pointedly at Felix, ensuring he would not be too blunt.
Tonya’s eyes widened. Sandra’s eyes narrowed. Avery looked at us intently, her smile unchanged.
“So we love you. You’re our friends and pack members and you can always come to us if you need anything but we have found our fated mate,” said Calix gently.
Avery’s smile faltered. “So,” she said.
“So…” said Calix, pausing, “…we wanna be with her as we are well, fated.”
“Who is she?” Asked Sandra blatantly.
“That’s not important right now,” I said gently. I didn’t want this to be more dramatic than it had to be. I didn’t need Chasity having to deal with cattiness on top of everything else.
“How long have you known?” Said Tonya, her tone tense.
“We found out this morning,” said Felix.
“And there’s just one of her?” Asked Sandra.
“Yes,” I said simply.
“Lucky her,” said Sandra snidely, glaring at me.
“You have every right to be upset. All I ask is for you to understand that this isn’t being done with any malice in mind and Ch…” I stopped myself, my pulse quickening.
I heard a sharp intake of breath from Calix. Felix looked at me with wide eyes. I had almost said Chasity’s name. That was a close one.
“Our mate is totally innocent in all of this and we haven’t even had a proper chat with her yet. We wanted to speak to you first and clear the air,” I said.
“Will she be at the party tonight?” Asked Sandra angrily.
“Yes,” I said stiffly.
Sandra laughed humourlessly.
“Who are all those gifts for?” Demanded Tonya.
“Us,” said Felix quickly.
“You wr*pped gifts that were meant for yourselves?” Asked Tonya incredulously.
“Well, they’re from each one of us to the other two. We had to shop for each other,” said Felix. Quick thinking. It was a lie but it would help spare them some pain. They didn’t need to know we were excited to shower and lavish Chasity with gifts right away. It was her birthday though and she had had so many shitty birthdays which were totally undeserved. She was a sweet girl who hadn’t asked for such a complicated life.
“So we’re not gonna be your dates for the party?” Asked Sandra incredulously.
“No, sorry,” I mumbled.
*****************************
Felix’s POV
Obviously we wanted to take our fated mate and future Luna as our date to our birthday party and Alpha ceremony. It would be the only sensible thing to do.
“Why can’t we have one last hurrah together?” Said Sandra, sighing.
Alex held her hand. “Because there’s no point in delaying the inevitable. I have no plans to be unfaithful to you so I’m telling you the truth and I also don’t plan on playing around with you behind my mate’s back. I have respect for both of you and I wanna show you that,” said Alex.
Alex always had the political answer ready for them. I would let him handle the PR when we became Alphas officially. I would throw in a joke here and there to keep the crowd warmed up whenever we gave speeches in future. Calix would do his usual sweet-talking.
“I wanna talk to you alone, Alex,” hissed Sandra, clearly annoyed.
Those two went for a walk and so did Calix and Avery. I sat there with Tonya.
“I know how it is. Trust me. Roxie left me for her mate,” I said.
“And you were just fine with it?” Asked Tonya incredulously.
“Well, yeah,” I said, shrugging. “Because I knew one day I would be the one who to find my mate. The same will happen for you one day and you’ll have to tell some guy the truth and I hope he’s patient and understands and wishes you all the best.
If he gets loud with you, just call me,” I said, grinning. I was still protective over Tonya. I did care about her but Chasity was everything to me.
She could make or break me with one word. She gave me nose-bleed highs and swimming-with-the-fishes lows with one look. I hoped she would accept me.
“You said you hadn’t talked to her yet?” Clarified Tonya.
I nodded.
“What if she rejects you?” Asked Tonya.
My stomach did backfl*ps. f**k. Just the thought of that alone was excruciating.
