I looked over at him, and found Nico fighting a smirk. Finn was grinning, too.
“What are you fuckers so happy about?” I grunted, turning back to the sandbag.
“Have you ever met a werewolf who didn’t know the mating process like the back of his hand?” Finn asked me.
I…
Hadn’t considered that.
My fist slammed the bag harder than it had in a while, and blood splattered all over the fabric
Despite what the town seemed to think, my pack and I didn’t have any damn vows against taking mates. Kai and Finn already had women in the past—Kai’s mate had died, and Finn’s rejected him. Nico, Enzo, and I were the only single men left. But the three of us knew that most females wouldn’t be willing to live the same lifestyle we’d chosen, so we tried to protect them from that.
And honestly, having women around triggered Kai, after everything Elle had put him through. So altogether, finding mates had seemed like a shitty idea for us.
Which had now been proven accurate.
“Your wolf probably realized she was keeping something from you,” Nico said calmly. “And if she’s keeping secrets from you, then you and Morgan aren’t on the same page, which would make the wolf try to take control. If you don’t want to live with her, you’re going to have to make sure you and the beast both see that decision in the same exact way, because the wolf will side with her in a fight. Not you.”
He was right.
I knew that; I’d had the same damn conversation with other men dozens of times.
I was the bastard who helped them understand that they weren’t on the same page as their mates, and that it was causing issues.
And yet here I was.
Having issues that I hadn’t fucking addressed.
“So you should go talk to her, asshole,” Ryder growled.
“If he shows up there this soon after walking away, he’ll look desperate,” Finn pointed out. “There was nothing Jo hated as much as desperation in a man.”
“Jo rejected you,” Ryder said frankly. “And most women don’t care about that shit. She’ll want to know that you want to see her.”
“She doesn’t want him to have feelings for her, though,” Finn pointed out.
They were both right.
My head fucking hurt.
“None of us know the girl. Just ask Char what she thinks,” Nico finally said.
Our damn alpha was always the voice of reason.
Asshole.
“I’ll do it,” Ryder grumbled. “Even though I already know she’s going to agree with me.”
She was his mate; he knew her better than the rest of us by a long way… and because of her, he probably knew women in general better than the rest of us.
The phone didn’t even finish ringing once.
Char’s cheerful voice came through the speaker immediately. “Hey, Ry. What’s up?”
Shit, what would it be like to have a woman who answered so enthusiastically when you called?
“Hey, Kelley, you’re on speaker. The guys have a question.” The way that harsh bastard softened when he talked to her…
