Betrayed By Fate

Chapter 46 | Meeting

...Arian?

His room was reeking of female scent.

He never failed to meet me with that scent mixed with his when I was in that cell.

He apologized for sleeping around before...

He lied...why?

Why would he lie?

Are you asking me? I have no idea girl.

You could ask him.

"Was great talking to you...I really need to get back to work" she waved and left me by the entrance.

I left the pack hospital deep in thoughts. Jake...why?

"Arian!" I felt someone shake my body out of my daze. Luke worried eyes met my silver ones.

"Are you fine? I called you too many times for me to count, you were completely away.." he retrieved his hands from my shoulders.

"I am fine"

You are not fine.

Shouldn't I be happy that Jake didn't sleep around after he met me?

Aren't you?

I..don't know...when he apologized, he sounded so sincere. Why would he do that if he is lying? It doesn't make any sense!

You rather have him tell the truth about something he did even if it was to hurt you, than him lying to you about what he did, meaning he is guiltless?

You are crazy.

I am.

"Come on, we need to hurry!" Luke urged.

"What is wrong? You are acting weird" I walked behind him.

"You need to come..." never have I heard Luke speak so seriously except when he talked about his passed away mate. She is the only one who can get that psycho to drop his mask, even if she isn't here anymore.

I followed him to the pack house, are Jenn and Zaire here?

He straight went to the library.

"Calm down Luke...first let me ask you...couldn't you have shaved your legs? Like seriously! You wore more dresses in your life than I did. Can't you at least do that?" It is probably true.

"Hey, I am still a man who is proud of his body hair- not the point. I brought Arlen and Eric you might need them" he rumbled, brushing past me.

"Arlen? Wait--..When you say brought them...you mean in this?" I pointed at his bright pink short dress.

He nodded absent-mindedly, searching between the books of the library.

"Did you make a video?" I chuckled.

"What? No. This is serious Arian!....okay maybe I did but that isn't important" he rolled his eyes.

The videos, he has a collection of them..he stores them in the secret library. Not really professional, I know. But he doesn't give a f*ck.

He took a book, it was old leather cover with an old language adorning the edges.

"Come" he pulled my hand after him.

In the back of the library were Eric and Arlen talking in hushed voices books and papers scattered on the ground around them

"I brought her" Luke muttered, his eyes raking the papers of the book between his hands.
