"I wanted to get this done quickly so we can spar outside!" He told me. "I kind of wish we were still at the mansion though. I liked it over there." "Your father thinks it's better if we worked here because of the paparazzi. Until he takes care of it, it's better if you didn't go over there," I told him. I just hoped that they would be cleared by the tit was tforto go home. The last thing I wanted was the stay here... not with Irene under the sroof. I knew she didn't like or trustright now and I didn't want things to continue being awkward between us. I think spending the night with her father would make things even more awkward.
He nodded thoughtfully and then he grinned again.
"So, are you going to be my mom?" I nearly choked on my spit as I sat down beside him.
"I'm sorry, what? "I asked him, snapping my eyes in his direction.

"I saw the news reports. I don't live under a rock," he told me, eyeingsuspiciously and making my cheeks burn even more. "I'm not upset if you are going to be my mom. I would really like it if you were." "Oh, Matt..." I said, my heart squeezed in my chest. The last thing I wanted was to disappoint and hurt him, but I certainly didn't think I was going to marry Gavin. "Maybe we should talk about this later?" His face fell a little, but he nodded. He wasn't stupid, he knew I was avoiding the subject. But he was polite enough to not say anything. We continued with his homework and then we spent tsparring in the backyard. Now that the film crew was done, it was nice having the space to ourselves again.
I hadn't noticed someone else had joined us in the training grounds until Matt's eyes wandered and then grew large.
"Oh, hello Miss Sinclaire," Matt said.
I turned and my jaw nearly dropped when I saw Skyla approaching us. She gave Matt a small nod and then her eyes shifted into my direction. My cheeks bumed under her scrutiny.
"H...hello," I said to her, hating that I stuttered.
"Can we talk for a minute?" She asked me.
My eyes grew large; what could she possibly want to speak toabout? I glanced down at Matt, and he seemed to get the hint because he nodded and quickly went to finish practicing with the bow and arrow. I turned to Skyla, forcing a smile in her direction.
"What's this about?" I asked her.
"I think you know what this is about," she told me, raising her perfectly trimmed brows. "It's about you and Gavin's relationship." Chapter 0222 +25 BONUS My cheeks burned even more. I wanted to tell her that we didn't exactly have a relationship; at least not like that. But the words wouldn't leave my lips. My wolf wouldn't allowto say those words to her because she didn't want them to be true. I wasn't sure what that meant exactly, but I found myself clamping my lips shut and listening to more of what she had to say.
"If I had known he was already committed to someone, I would have never pursued him,” Skyla continued to tell me. "I just wanted you to know that I'm not a homewrecker and I can't have the paparazzi thinking that I am." I was surprised by her words.
"I don't think anyone is calling you a homewrecker,” assured her.

They are so focused on his new relationship that they haven't put any of the pieces together yet. I know Gavin is working on getting the stories pulled, but I worry about my reputation." "Well, if it comes down to it, I will tell them that our relationship is new and that he was single when he met you." The words left my lips before I could stop them, and I immediately regretted them. Was I really planning on telling the paparazzi that I was in a relationship with Gavin Landry? As if things weren't hard enough as they are.
Skyla also looked surprised; she thought about it for a moment before she nodded.
"Just don't make it seem like he leftfor you," she told me, winking as I if she were telling a funny joke. But I knew she was serious. Look, I'm really sorry for any misunderstandings I may have caused. I was under the impression that his fling with you wasn t serious.
I wouldn't have pursued him if I knew." "It's okay," I reassured her. "It's not your fault. We were keeping things secret. That's not on you.
