Shifted Fate Novel

Chapter 187 I was frozen in my spot when he pulled away .

My eyes snapped open and I could see his self assured smile as het turned away with his meal .

If I could die right this second , I would .

Well , well , well .

Nixs voice was amused .

I thought you said you werent interested in him ? Amy , are you okay ? Megans soft question caught me off guard .

Why wouldnt she be ? Nix was just as confused as I was .

Megan came closer and started to rub her side against the wall in my mind .

Because … She started .

She didnt want to like Rowan because of us .

We are waiting for your mate , Nix .

You , yourself , are interested in Erubus .

Falling for a man , specifically our king , would be hard .

Knowing he will be selecting a queen , or finding his mate , is even worse .

Megan paused .

No matter what happens , Rowan isnt for her and she knows it .

Nix was quiet .

I didnt think of that .

I felt her following Megan , pressing herself against the wall .

If Rowan is who you want , I would give his wolf a shot .

He is the king , so he will be strong .

I havent set myself on Erubus , yes I like him , but I wont force you to be with a man you dont want to be .

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes .

I wont do that to you again .

Brandon had taught me that if we were going to end up with any man , I want all of us to agree with him .

Plus , Rowan , like Megan said , was destined for someone else .

I could feel the burn of tears behind my eyes , but I was being stupid .

He is just a man , a man who obviously doesnt like me .

1 You dont know if he likes you or not .

Nix offered .

If he liked me , he would have kissed me .

I shook my head and grabbed the meals .

I took a deep breath before walking out .

Choose a meal .

I laid the choices on the table and everyone grabbed their choice .

I brought the rest back to the kitchen and picked one I wanted .

Does anyone need their heated up ? I put mine to the side and went back into the living room to heat everyones dinner up .

After everything was done , I passed out utensils and turned the tv on for background noise .

When I sat down with my meal , I slid off the loveseat and onto the floor .

Rowan looked at me weirdly , but I put my food on the table and ignored his look as I ate .

I felt him shift closer , and I wanted to pull away .

I dont know what he was playing at .

If he just liked the attention or what , but I didnt enjoy being toyed with .

But I wasnt going to give him the satisfaction of knowing he was bothering me .

Sooner or later , he would have his mate , and I would fade from his mind .

It might not be what you are thinking , Amy .

Megan tried to comfort me .

Not everyone is like Vince and Brandon .

All I could do what nod .

In my head , I knew that .

But with everything that happened in my first like .

I wasnt going to trust any man .

They would have to prove their intentions with action .

And Rowan proved that he wasnt really interested in me .

Again , the thought made me want to cry .

I couldnt understand why I was so emotional today .

My phone rang when I had that thought , and I checked the caller ID .

It was my mom .

I answered .

Mom ? Her sobs hit ine in my chest and I closed my eyes .

Mom , whats wrong ? 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 187 You father is gone , baby .

What ? I just talked to him .

What did she mean he was gone ? There was an attack today , and the pack was wiped out .

The words hit me in my chest .

She didnt know the truth and I couldnt tell her over the phone , either .

Fuck .

Come home .

I need you to come home .

I cant leave mom.

I whispered the words .

I could feel everyones eyes on me .

No one is allowed to leave school .

without an armed guard now .

Then Im coming to you .

I moved out of my dorm .

I explained that some of us were being moved to the apartment building .

ing .

Come here , mom .

Ill tell Sterling to send you up to my apartment .

People would know soon enough that I moved in here .

But I didnt want them to know I was in the penthouse .

No one but the ones in here would know .

Okay baby .

Im on my way .

Her sobs ripped my chest open as she hung up .

I looked down at my phone for a moment , a little lost .

The silence that followed was deafening .
