Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTrixie's outburst caught both mine and Sansa's attention. She jumped to her feet, huffing and puffing, and I could have sworn her eyes turned brighter than usual. It was as if a flip switched in her, and she was slowly spiraling from it. The guilt that filledover her looking upset, tore at my heart. I had never meant to hurt her, and biting my bottom lip, the confidence I usually felt slowly dissipated.
"Trixie, I'm so sorry. Please don't be upset." "Upset?!" She scoffed with laughter. "I'm not upset because I'm his mate." "What? Then what's wrong?" Confused beyond belief, I tried to understand what was going on. Why was she acting like this if she wasn't upset by the news? Shaking her head, she paced around the little seating area we were in with her hands on her hips. "I never wanted a mate, Cassie. As surprising as that may seem, in my world, when you take your mate, it means you start popping out babies, and just because my older sister wants to do that doesn't mean I want to." Trixie's confession was slightly unexpected. She was usually so sweet and bubbly, and right now, she was acting completely different. "Trix-" "No, Cassie," she sighed, snapping her gaze at me. "Letfinish." I gestured with my hand for her to continue. After all, who was I to honestly stop her? It was obvious the girl was on a mission, and as she ranted about how people always treated her like she was stupid and how her mother wanted her to settle down, I couldn't help but think of how similar we actually were.
"If your brother thinks for one minute he can disregard me, regardless ofnot wanting to mate anything, well, he has another thing coming." "Whoa-what?" I gasped, coming back to reality at her words.
What the hell was she talking about? "You heard me, Cassie," she replied with a triumphant smirk on her face. "I'm going to take a chapter out of your book." Sansa kicked my shin, causingto gasp as I sent a daggered glare in her direction. "What the hell was that for?!" "Look what you did!" she groaned, gesturing to Trixie, who pulled out her phone and seemed to look at herself in her reflection. "She has lost it!" Mouth parted and eyes wide, I shrugged as if to ask her what she wantedto do. It wasn't like I asked for all of this shit. "Trixie, what are you planning?" When I spoke, my eyes spotted a figure walking past the store I had wanted to see all day. Lucas walked casually down the sidewalk in the sdark jeans and t-shirt I had seen him in the other day, which confusedmore than anything.

"Guys, I have to go." Standing to my feet, Sansa called afteras I bolted from the cafe and out the door, looking in both directions for which way he had gone. The thought of finding him was the only thing pushingforward as I turned left and headed up the street in the direction I saw his figure disappear.
My eyes searched the area for any sign of him, and when I thought I'd never find him, a firm arm reached out from within the shadows of an alley and pulledin, the seductive, sultry scent I had grown used to wrapping around my body. Pushed against the wall, I stared up into Lucas' dark steely eyes. My heart was racing at the feeling of his body pressed against mine as his breath fanned across my cheek.
"Why are you following me?" he snarled through a narrowed gaze.
"What-what do you mean why am I following you? I have been looking for you all day."
