My Secret, My Bully, My Mates by Miss L

2-111 Finally on day three we got a reprieve from her coma.

"Wha...Where am I? What happened? I feel like I am moving through sand." We all jump up. Xander and Oscar have made her a sandwich every night. I have been sleeping on a recliner and not loving it, but the alternative was worse. I found I got sick if I was away from her, trying to sleep in my own room. So here I am.

"My head hurts. Sky what did we do at the Alpha meeting? We didn't take shots did we?" Search The FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

She still thinks it was days ago.

"No, we didn't do shots." I smile at her, at least her humor is still intact. Doa favor, take a deep breath and tellwhat you notice." She looks atfunny but does what I ask. "Oh, my what is that?" She sniffs again and then looks around, just noticing Xander and Oscar sitting next to her. "Oh, sh*t!" I giggle and she looks back at me. "You found your mates and it seems you weren't ready for that surprise." "No way! There is no way I'm their mate. That is not possible, I cannot be the next Luna Queen. No one would wantas their queen.” She's still talking tolike the guys aren't even there. "You're our Queen." Oscar purrs behind her.

"Oh, no! I'm out, ya'll need to talk...or whatever." I got up and tried not to run out of the room.

I did not see Mina, Oscar or Xander for a couple weeks after that. I have been spending more twith Sierra though, which has been a bonus.

We were hanging out in the castle, she's been helpingreview the grimoires that Elena left fornow that neither of us are subjected to regular school hours. I'm actually getting the hang of sbasic element manipulation. I was able spark a fire yesterday and blow Sierra's hair around. But it wo takes lot of energy out of me. Elena thinks that might be because I don't actually have witch blood, just access to the use of the magic. Something I will have to work on, because it won't make sense forto use the power at the cost of weakening my whole body to the point of not being able to protect myself. Elena thinks that I might be able to build up my use with time, like a muscle.

"I can't wait!" She beams and slams a book closed. "The guys should be here within the week. I haven't seen Sam since my birthday, they have been so busy. I mean I guess we have been busy too." She givesa look. It's the sone she always giveswhen we get close to the subject of my capture.

"Sierra, I'm not going to break or run off crying about what happened. Stop doing that. I have always been able to count on you to treatthe sno matter what has happened to me. Please don't change now." I walk over from my seat to give her a hug.

"It's easier said than done. I have seen so many of your injuries, but it was always after the fact. This tI got to see you right after, barely alive and it was really scary, and super impressive at the stime. I don't want to treat you differently, it's just different here. You are a leader here and so many people want your attention or your advice. You're kind of a big deal." I laugh and nudge her. "You have always just seenfor me, even before people who have knownmy whole life, don't let that change." I take a deep breath and look over at her. "And speaking of the guys, do they know? About any of it?" "I actually don't know what they know. Obviously Alpha Lucas and Luna Ava have skind of idea, but I don't think even they were told the whole story. Alpha Lucas would have had you back hjust as fast as the guys." She smiles atwith her little joke.

"You'll have to give them hugs for me. Technically speaking, I am still in training and can't have contact with the outside world. And we are gearing up for our next rescue mission." "How long are you going to hide behind that excuse? You will have to see them eventually."

"It's not an excuse, and I know, but I don't even know what I would say to them now. It's been a year, but it feels like forever and the only contact we had was a letter and the necklace they sent for my birthday, that still brings up rough memories. I was attacked, poisoned and beaten within an inch of my life all because of something as minor as wantingto go to a dance. That's the last actual memory we all have of each other. It's so stupid, but I still just struggle with that. With being beaten by her, again, with them not noticing what is really happening right under their noses. With the imbalance of discipline and justice from them and even Luna Ave and Alpha Lucas. Ugh!" I rub my hands over my face. "So it is Kaley. It took you two years to tellthat." She huffs.

"That's the part that you caught in the whole conversation? Damn. I must be tired or you are getting better at your interrogation techniques, Yes, Kaley is my problemy. She wants to be Luna and has always had a target oneven before you calong and forced the guy's notice my way." I gave her a half smile. "We are the sage so there is still tbefore she finds out if she is mated to any of them. But I don't think she will care, she will try everything to be Luna. She's worse than Olympia and Charlene."

"I gathered that. She threw quite the tantrum when the boys left the mating ball. Broke a few things. very Luna-like, I might add. She laughs at a-like I might her own sarcasm. “You didn't tellthat! Actually I don't think I heard anything about that night. Everyone was focused on what happened to me, we never talked about everyone else."
