I’ll get to spend hours alone with him when we go and considering I’m not sure of my feelings for the rest of his pack right now, getting a bit of distance from them wouldn’t be a bad thing.
“Tonight would be good,” I tell Gus. “I miss my own clothes.”
And I really don’t want to continue looking like my sister while it feels like three of my mates were immediately attracted to Scarlett when they met. It’s not going to be possible to find a way to get over that while I’m still walking around wearing her clothes, if it’s even possible at all.
“Well, dinner’s almost ready,” Bishop says. “So why don’t you pick a seat?”
I do what he asks, Gus following and sitting down right next to me in what I thought was Bishop’s chair. Rueben quickly slides into the seat across from me, as if someone else might be about to steal his spot or something.
“So, you’re not a fan of Chaos Burning then?” he asks, sounding hopeful.
I laugh. “How did you guess? Did I give it away when I didn’t recognize the song you started to sing the other day?”
He smiles. “Yeah. Kind of. It seemed a little strange.”
“Especially since the title was on the shirt I was wearing,” I add. “Which I didn’t realize until later.”
“So, what do you like?” He rests his head on one hand, while he gazes at me.
“In general, or are we just talking music?” I ask, raising an eyebrow at him.
He laughs. “Well, I do want to know everything, but we can start with … Actually, wait. Do you like basketball?”
“I’m a Crocs fan,” I admit. “I was raised in Crystal Lake, so …”
I trail off with a shrug.
“Awesome!” his smile turns into a grin.
“Awesome?” I ask, as Bishop begins to put plates on the table. “I don’t support your team.”
“You will,” he says, sounding sure about that.
Gus shakes his head. “We only support the Tempests because we live here.”
“They’re an awesome team,” Rueben protests.
“As are the Crocs,” Gus counters.
I feel my face flush.
Having Gus rush to my defence feels good, I have to admit.
I’m not used to having a guy stick up for me.
Ben wasn’t like that.
It might just be an Alpha thing, or a mate thing.
Either way, I just met this guy this morning, and I already know he’s nothing like my ex.
Chapter sixty-six
Gus
It feels pretty good to be the only one our mate is interested in right now. It’s the perfect validation for what I knew all along. Scarlett Faris is not, and never has been, our true mate.
I had no idea her sister would be, but I can already see there are huge differences in Sapphire’s nature that add up to an attraction I never could have felt for her twin.
