DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 108
Chapter 0108
(Lily POV)
“Did you sleep with him, Lily?” Brady asked me coldly.
“What?!?!?”
“Did. You. Sleep. With. Him. It is a simple question. Yes or no?”
My heart dropped, and I put my hands over my face. I felt naive for not putting two and two together earlier. “That is what this is about?”
Brady continued to glare at me. “You are avoiding the question, Lily. I already know that you kissed him. I also know that he carried you over his shoulder to his room, that you spent the night with him, and that you came out this morning wearing nothing but his t-shirt. Were you so overcome by hormones that you forgot that my men were there watching and reporting everything back to me?”
Brady’s voice was filled with rage, but I could also hear an overwhelming sense of hurt. My heart began to ache for him and for the pain this situation was causing everyone.
“Brady….”
“I know he wanted to sleep with you. Hell, half my men want to sleep with you. Or at least the unmated ones do. What I want to know now is how you reacted. Did you go ahead and f&&k him? Or was it just as
easy for you to turn James down as it was to turn me down?”
“Brady, look. Please relax. 1
“Answer the d&&n question, Lily. Don’t you think I have a right to know?”
I did not know whether to feel embarrassed, guilty, or angry at the way that he was talking to me. Or all of the above. I wished that he would calm down so that we could talk about this. T
“I am waiting Lily. Tell me the truth. You are a horrible liar, so I will know.”
I sighed in exacerbation.
“No, Brady, I did not sleep with him.”
He studied my face. “No, wait, I should have asked the question differently. You are not getting out of this question on a technicality. I do not care if you slept. Did. You. f&&k. him?”
I sighed again. “No, Brady. I did not have sex with him.”
“But you kissed him right?
“Brady, please stop this. This is crazy. This is not you.”
base, even?” he asked bitterly.
Brady did not say anything right away, but I could tell hurt was slowly taking over for the anger. He sat
down, leaned over, and put his face in his hands.
I moved forward and put hand gently on his arm. “Brady, please understand
“Understand what, Lily? Understand that you gave yourself to the very male you promised you would
never go back to? The very male that you rejected after he treated you like sh&t for years?”
“Brady, it is not that simple. It–”
“What Lily? Do you think you can just explain it away and I will understand? I told you that I have fallen in
love with you. I have done everything I can to prove to you that I can be a good mate for you! And I know
you have felt something for me too. But then James comes waltzing in and it is like you forget about
everything and everyone else. How is that supposed to make me feel?”
I felt a tear run down my cheek. “Brady, I am really sorry. But you were right. He is my mate, and it is
hard to let him go, even with our past. That is exactly why you wanted me to come here and see him.
You knew that if I did not go to him, he would try to find me. And you were absolutely right.
But you should also know that nothing really happened between James and I last night. There were two
beds in his room. We kissed, yes, but that is all that we did. He brought me to his hotel room only
because he smelled you in my room and on my bed, and it was driving him and his wolf crazy.”
Brady sat silently for a few minutes. When he looked back up at me, I saw that his eyes were bloodshot
and he had a few tears in his eyes. So much for male alphas not crying: both James and Brady had
seemed as emotional as me the last couple of days.
“Look, Lily. I am really sorry for yelling at you, okay? You did not deserve that. I just… I know how hard it
is to be around someone that you have been mated to, even after a rejection. I am so scared of losing
I
you like I lost Evelyn. Just the thought of losing you, especially to someone like James, kills me.” z
I grabbed Brady’s hand and squeezed. It occurred to me that I was missing critical information. “Why
don’t you finally tell me about Evelyn so that I can understand,” I whispered softly.
Brady squeezed my hand in return. “Okay.”
I took the seat next to Brady and waited for him to begin his story.
(Joey POV)
Me:
“Babe, James just called me.”
Jessica:
“And?”
Me:
“He told me to spend as much time as I want in Hawaii, and to tell Sheila the next time she
asks that he left Hawaii and she can go to hell.”
Jessica:
“What? Really? That is great!”
Me:
“I don’t know. Maybe.”
Jessica:
“What’s wrong?”
Me:
“Aiden is working overtime to keep her distracted, but she is getting restless. She saw this
trip as an opportunity to secure her place as luna. Aiden said she even makes him call her “Luna” as he is
f&&king her. She is going to be livid when she finds out that James isn’t here anymore. She is going to be
desperate and angry when we get back to the pack.”
Jessica:
Me:
“Oh, f&&k. You are right. I should alert the others.”
“Yeah, I think that is a good idea. Who knows what she will do now.”
Jessica:
“Did he give you any clues about how it went with Lily?”
Me:
“It was a little hard to find that out without asking him how it went with Lily.”
Jessica:
“True.”
Jessica:
“Wait. Oh, Joey, you didn’t do that did you?”
Me:
with him.
[ashamed emoji] Not exactly that question, but I did ask him if he was bringing Lily back.
Jessica:
“What did he say?”
Me:
“He asked me how I knew that he was meeting with Lily.”
Jessica:
“Cr ap. What did
you tell him?”
Me:
“That I had to go, because Sheila was throwing a fit at the restaurant.”
Jessica:
“Was she really?”
Me:
“Not right then, but she has thrown fits everywhere we have gone. She is convinced that she has the right to be treated like a princess by everyone.”
Jessica:
[eye roll emoji] “I love you.”
Me:
“Love you too.”
Jessica:
“I will make sure the others know to be prepared.”
With that, I headed to the pool to talk to Aiden and Sheila.
Hopefully my mate can ensure that everyone is ready for when Sheila returns to the pack. I will try to
keep her here as long I can, but I do not know how long she will cooperate. My guess is that she will be on the next flight out of here.
