N: Hey

T: Who’s this?

N: lol…..guess

T: Or you could just tell me….

N: I could, but that wouldn’t be as much fun….

T: This may be fun to you, but not to me…..

T: Who is this?

N: Ok….ok….you twisted my arm……it’s Neal

T: How did you get my number?

N: I have my ways

Okay, this is weird. Why is Neal texting me? How did he get my number? I won’t lie; Neal texting me makes me feel some type of way. It’s almost as if I’m being unfaithful or something. I know how ridiculous that sounds since it’s just texts. I don’t feel that way about Neal at all, but it feels as if there is supposed to be something more there.

N: Hello??

T: Yes, I’m here.

N: Are you not happy to hear from me?

T: I mean…..a text wasn’t really necessary….who really uses their phones around here

N: True…lol….I just wanted to do something different

T: Well, it IS different….

N: Let’s hang out…..

T: Uh….now?

Oh, Goddess! Is it me….did I cause this? I will admit that Neal and I had a few great conversations, but I don’t think I did or said anything to get him to think there was more between up. I’m mated to the Alpha twins and have no eyes for anyone who isn’t them. I have to let him know there is nothing there. But…..what if I’m seeing something that isn’t there? What if he doesn’t see me like anything more than a friend? I mean, what would he see in me anyway?

N: Not now….lol….but soon

T: I have a lot going on….getting ready for the ceremony and all

“I just didn’t have my watch on. Your scent and those sparks….I couldn’t handle it.”

“Where was your watch?”

“I left it on my desk while I was training.”

“Why should your watch matter? I had my necklace on so that should have been enough.”

“UGH! I’ve told you before…..you having your necklace or me having my watch is not enough. In order for us not to feel the impact of the bond and our mates to not feel any pangs of betrayal, we both need our talisman on. That’s the only way we have full protection.” I hurry away once the voices sound like they are on the move.

What the hell was that? My dad and the Luna have a…a bond? They have a mate bond? How could that be? My dad is mated to my mom and the Luna to the Alpha. I don’t understand what I heard exactly, but I’m not too distracted by that mystery. There is another aspect of their conversation that is much more intriguing.

A talisman that keeps the mate bond from being felt, and mates won’t feel betrayal. That’s very interesting. Maybe it’s not as interesting as the fact that it seems like there is a bond between my dad and Luna, but that doesn’t really concern me at the moment. If I could get my hand on those talismans……. “I KNOW THAT! I just said I needed those. I just have to figure out how to get them undetected.” I take a few quick steps. “You really piss me off sometimes.” Goddess, I have so much to do, but my time is limited.
