Chapter Fifty-Two
Ryley
I’m not sure what Blake has told his mother about the nature of our relationship but the questions she is asking has me on edge.
How can I explain that I have no interest in being a Luna without hurting Blake’s feelings?
“To be fair, Ryley, we are a Luna wolf. We are supposed to be leading a pack. And Blake is se*y as hell. If anything the pack is
just the cherry on top,” Lily purred.
Aspen fake sneezing the word b*tch pulled me from my thoughts. That’ s when I noticed Elizabeth was talking with Gwen. My
hands were trembling in my lap. This was all I needed right now.
“Aspen,” I turned and scolded him. As funny as that was, it was uncalled for. Even though I wish I could have been the one to
say it. He looked at me and shrugged.
“Ryley, it’s a business meeting. You got this. Put on your game face and don’t let that b*tch win. You have already won the love
of his son. She will never have Aspen’s approval.” Lily said. I took a deep breath and squared my shoulders. I can do this.
When Gwen sat beside the former Luna, I knew this was going to be terrible. She was trying to set me up with her son just to
have another woman sit with us. Someone who has no interest in being a mother to Aspen. Now would be the moment I needed
that drink.
I noticed the boys quickly finished their dinner, not wanting to stick around which I don’t blame them. I no longer wanted to be
here either.

“And have you found your mate, yet?” Elizabeth asked Gwen.

“Not yet, but I’m hoping to get someone’s attention,” She answered, looking at Blake. My nails dug into my palms as I tried to
calm myself down. Both the boys gagged.
“Mom, can we be excused?” Channing turned and asked me.
“Of course, you both can. There’s the list on the fridge if you two would like to go grocery shopping for me.” I told them. Both of
them stood to leave before Gwen interrupted.
“Excuse me, you have no right to give the alpha’s son permission to leave the table, he isn’t your son.”
“I would rather be her son than yours,” Aspen retorted. And even though she had put me on the spot I couldn’t help but smile at

his comment. To me, Aspen will also be a part of my family.
“Dad, I’ll be at Channing’s,” he told his father before coming over to me. Aspen kissed my cheek first before my son did the same
on the other one.
“Be safe you two. I’ll be home soon.” I told them before they walked toward the exit of the dining room. When I turned back to the
table, I wanted to run away with them.
“I didn’t realize you and my son had such a serious relationship.” Blake’s mother questioned.
“Mom, Ryley and I are friends and I trust her with Aspen. She would lay down her life for his. And Aspen is allowed to feel how
he feels. If he feels that way, that is his choice.” Blake defended before I could
answer.
“It’s good to hear that you and she are just friends, Alpha Blake. You

need someone who can be loyal to a pack to lead beside you.” Gwen commented.
Thankfully, a server came by to bring her a plate and to refill our drinks. This time I ordered what Blake was drinking, which was
whiskey. If I had any chance of getting through this evening, I was going to have to drink.
“Are you okay?” Blake mouthed to me after I took a long sip of my double whiskey. I gave him a nod and a tight smile. This is not
how I thought this evening was going to go. I wish a plane would fall out of the sky and crush me.

“We should all have dinner with my parents. I know they would love to catch up and I would get to spend some time with Alpha
Blake,” Gwen announced and Blake downed his drink.
“I told you he didn’t like her,” Lily huffed.
“Then why did he show up smelling like her?” I retorted and she
chuckled.
“You sound like a jealous girlfriend.
“Will you all excuse me?” I said as I stood up from the table. I needed a moment to myself to think about what the hell was
happening and how I was feeling.
I left the dining room with plans to head to the washroom but instead, I went up to my office. I was glad I brought my keys with
me as I unlocked the door and stepped inside.
“Can you just finally admit your feelings to Blake so he can officially be off the market? Because I don’t know how much longer I
can wait for you to make up your mind.” Lily said as I sat down in my chair behind my desk.

“And what are you going to do?” I questioned.
“I will take over and mark him myself if you don’t tell him how you feel. We both know you like him, love him. And having that
bi*ch around bothers you. A mark may not stop her but you will have the power to end her if she doesn’t back off.” She
answered.
“Lily, you wouldn’t?” I gasped. Lily has never taken over before. We have always been a team..
“I will if it means you get what you think you don’t deserve. You deserve the life you were meant to have. We are a Luna and we
deserve to have a good alpha by our side and a pack to take care of. Why can’t you see that?”
“And what if he doesn’t want me? What If he just wants sex and I care
about someone who doesn’t care for me? Again. Blake can have anyone, why the hell would he want a pack-less single
mother?” I exclaimed. The tears I had been holding in were now running down my cheeks. The last person I cared about killed
my entire family and took over my pack. All I have left is Channing, and I needed to protect him. Even if that meant giving up my
happiness. And I don’t even know if I could be happy with Blake.
“You’ll never know unless you try.”
