“Gabriel told me you are a man whore,” she said, looking angrily at Nick.

“Annie!” I said, shocked. “What the fuck?!”

Nick clenched his fists and growled at me. But before he could yell at me, Aria interrupted us.

“It is okay, Nick,” she said calmly. “You have a past. And I am not angry about it. And I wouldn’t be angry if you wanted to be with someone else right now. I am making you wait, and it is not the nicest thing. So, of course, you can be with other people.”

We all looked at her with shocked expressions on our faces. I admired her. She was so full of understanding. It was amazing.

Nick stood up and walked over to her. He kneeled in front of her and took her hands in his. He smiled brightly at her, and I could see how much he loved her already.

“First of all, thank you,” he said smiling. “Thank you for your understanding. I am one lucky man to have you by my side. Second, there is no way in hell I would look at another woman, let alone be with her when you exist.”

“It is okay, Nick,” she smiled back. “We all have a past, and it wouldn’t be fair of me to judge you for yours.”

Nick’s shoulders tensed and I knew exactly what he was thinking. What kind of past does she have? But Nick said nothing. He just gave her a hug and sat back on the sofa.

“So, movie?” I asked, breaking the small tension in the room.

“Yeah, but before that, I need to say something,” Annie interrupted and turned to Nick. “If you hurt Aria, I will make you suffer. And I am one hundred percent sure Gabriel would help me and do something even worse than me. So be careful.”

I covered my mouth with my hand so Nick wouldn’t see me smile. Annie is one fierce wolf. But it was kind of funny when she threatened people. She was not wrong, though. I would kill him if he hurt one hair on her head. But I knew him well enough to know he won’t, despite being a man whore up until a few days ago. And he knew me well enough to know what I would do to him if, by any chance, he did hurt her.

To my surprise, Nick laughed. “I believe you, Annie. And I am glad my mate has you to protect her. That way I know she will never be alone. Thank you, Annie.”

She looked at him with a shocked expression. I think she expected him to get angry. She was ready to fight.

Aria just looked between them with a confused expression. But she didn’t say anything. She turned to me and pointed at the TV.

“Movie, please,” she said. “Before they start to fight over me.”

Annie and Nick both laughed, and I played the movie.

Aria’s POV

I had so many questions that needed answers.

Nick is my mate?

I have a mate?

Why was I so afraid of being with Nick?

Annie and Gabriel knew?

Why didn’t Annie say something to me?

Why did I need to be protected?

Why would Gabriel care if Nick hurt me?

Why did Gabriel care so much about me?

Why did I have a feeling they were hiding stuff from me?

And if they did, why were they hiding them from me?

My head was spinning, and I couldn’t focus on this movie. I didn’t even know what it was about. I could hear Annie and the guys laughing so it must be a comedy.
