My Secret, My Bully, My Mates. novel Chapter 257

Chapter 0257

I let out a little whine, it sounds petulant even to my ears.

She just complimented me in the best possible way and all I can think of is when I am done training here, I just want to go home and be with my pack. By the time I get back though all the guys would be of age and probably found their mates and will have no use for me.

That thought also makes me sad. I have these big dreams and I am following them without regret, but I also don't want to have this divide between me and Mateo and the rest of the guys because I followed my dreams. The thoughts are overwhelming and I feel tired all over again.

" Sleep, Little One, you have one more day with us before you go back to reality.” She walks over looking almost angelic in the dim light from the lamp next to the bed. She tucks me in and kisses me on the forehead and I can’t stop the single tear that slips out. Even Mary wasn't allowed to tuck me in when I was little. Luna Anne pretends not to notice. "Sleep tight, sweet girl.”

With that she turns and walks out of the room. I reach over and turn off the light. I think I was asleep before my head even hit the pillow.

I get up the next morning and before I can even step out of my room to head to find Xander there is a knock at my door.

" No worries there. All of their windows face the front of the castle. Why do you think we cam out this way?” He laughs and Oscar and I joinin. I As we jog the first mile we are a bit more leisurely about it, just warming up really. I get to know Oscar more. He's the son of the Royal Delta, which is perfect for him.

He will be able to best protect the Royal pack and his motivations will be higher since his mates are the future Alpha and Luna. He has always thought he was just gay, but now that he knows they have a female mate waiting for them he’s interested to find out if they are both just mated to Xander or if the three of them are mates. I never thought about that before. I have heard of people having more than one mate, it’s not rare, but it’s not super common either.

I never stopped to consider how there might be different dynamics in those multi person relationships. That would be something fascinating to study, if I had free time.
