Chapter27
Striding into the lunch hall I was pleasantly surprised to find her already sitting at my table with the girls, my grin widening when I took note that she was in fact eating. In my eyes she was still far too skinny for my liking, I had nothing against a girl who had a little meat on her bones but I wasn’t stupid enough to make my views known to her.
“Hey baby, you have a good morning?” I asked as I kissed her cheek before sitting down next to her, planning on getting something to eat a little later.
“Yep, though I heard you had a very interesting talk with one of my teachers” she hummed as she looked at me with a raised brow, the rest of my close pack mates walking in behind me as they immediately went to their mates to greet them.
With her comment I was sure I went white as a sheet, making me pleased as hell that the fact I was naturally tanned meant it would be slightly easier to hide my reaction. Shit, is she mad at me? Crap, crap I knew I shouldn’t have interfered but I couldn’t help myself, and I was sure I looked comical with my eyes wide and my mouth open as my pack mates laughed at my expense.
“Don’t worry Hunter, I actually thought it was sweet” Zoe smiled, immediately making me relax as I breathed a dramatic sigh of relief causing laughs and chuckles to break out across the table.
“Well that’s a relief, I’ll be right back I need to get food. You need anything babe?” I asked her as I made a move to get up, I was starving. Werewolves had an extremely high metabolism meaning we needed to eat a LOT to keep up with how much we shifted and such.
“Could you get me a drink, a milkshake will do?” she asked, making a move to get her purse from her bag causing me to scoff. Oh hell no! She may want to take things slow but I had more than enough money then I knew what to do with so there was no way I was letting her pay for anything I could get for her. Not to mention it made both me and my wolf want to purr, the feeling I got from looking after my mate was one which I found deliciously addicting.
“Milkshake it is” I stated before walking away after kissing her cheek, leaving her sitting there open mouthed as she held the money in her hand.
I could hear my pack laughing at her expense, and while I normally wouldn’t have liked it I had to admit it was amusing to hear her huff under her breath and mumble something along the lines of not being a kept woman.
That right there was another thing I loved about her, unlike Stacy she didn’t seem to value money what–so–ever. She had lived without a lot of it for most of her life after all, and while the thought pained me I couldn’t help but find the trait endearing that she definitely wouldn’t be with me for my money alone, not that I thought she would be or anything.

SUGO: Voice Chat Party
“Hold up mate” Collin called as the rest of the males quickly headed to get food, the shifter lessons ending slightly later than the normal ones so it was basically all the males who were now lining up
in the food isle.
“Hunter, Hunter!”
“Oh for the love of god…” I muttered as Collin shot me a sympathetic look, Stacy running into the hall with a panicked look on her face as she scanned the room for me. Spotting me in the food line she quickly made her way over, and if it wasn’t for the fact she looked panicked I would have ignored her.
“What is it Stacy?” I asked annoyed causing her to frown.
“It’s my parents, there…there” she stuttered out causing my brows to crease, what was wrong with the bloody twats?
“What about them Stacy?” I asked flatly, gaining odd looks from my pack mates. I knew why, it was obvious since I should have been on more of an alert. But would you care if your soul–mate,
the girl who is your life, your everything was kicked out when she was a child by those people! They made me sick, disgusted even and if they hadn’t of been away I would have ripped their throats out before I could have calmed down. I knew that, Jack knew that and it was only a matter of time before
everyone
did if my mate was ok with her past being made aware like that.
“Why aren’t you more worried!” she screeched, obviously upset with my lack of reaction.
“Ok, ok Stacy I’m sorry. Tell me slowly what happened” I asked soothingly, having gained a crowd due to her heated entrance and high pitched shouting.
“Their house burnt down, I don’t know how but apparently someone set a fire” she gasped out causing my eyes to widen. Almost instinctively I looked towards my mate only to find an extremely innocent expression on her face.
“Fucking hell…” I found myself breathing in shocked awe, her eyes locking with mine as the emotions present told me all I needed to know. I didn’t know whether to be impressed, amused or
scared of what my mate was capable of.
“Fucking hell indeed” I heard Jack as he mumbled next to me, obviously putting two and two together. Ok, I had to admit to myself, my mate was a badass alpha female…even if it scared me to my bones how far she would go for revenge. Yep, I will definitely not be getting on her wrong side if
I can help it.
