Chapter 110: I'm Sure Plenty of Guys Would Want to Date You Evelyn's POV * 77% "Drop it already!" I flung my pillow at Aria, who dodged it with frustrating ease. You re making everything weird. They re just friends practically brothers. None of them see me as anything but a little sister. Besides, I was basically invisible to them until last year." Aria's face lit up with that troublemaker smile I'd come to know too well. "That's exactly why you should show off what you ve got. Let them see what they've been missing.

You're always hiding in those baggy clothes." I turned back to my laptop with an eye roll. "Some of us care about our grades. It literally a condition for me staying here." I tapped the keyboard pointedly. "No matter how hard you try distracting me, I'm staying ahead." During our mission, I'd been emailing assignments and joining video sessions when possible. Aria studied alongside me - not from academic passion, but because her father would yank her from the mission if she started skipping. We'd earned that lesson the hard way when he called once, yelling loud enough to blow our eardrums.

Since then, as far as Kendra knew, her attendance record was spotless. Aria had been busy connecting with local senior girls, hoping for party invitations when we returned in January. Several had already invited us to gatherings, which we'd declined due to our mission constraints. *Speaking of social stuff," I said, deliberately changing the subject, "the local girls are actually pretty friendly. I'm getting better at the whole group interaction thing." Aria tossed her notebook aside. "That's because you're not that scared little mouse anymore.

The training center knocked that out of you." I couldn't help noticing how boys - both human and werewolf - noticed Aria wherever we went. Hard to blame them. With her silky brown waves that somehow stayed perfect even during training and her naturally graceful proportions, she drew attention without trying. Meanwhile, I looked like something dragged through mud after fights. "Evelyn! Check this out!" Aria suddenly jumped up, waving her phone. "Ember says her brother's friend's cousin on the basketball team is throwing a party the first weekend after winter break!" I blinked.

"All I caught was winter break.' Your social web is way too complicated "Bottom line," she laughed, "basketball team party after winter break. Ember gave us the heads-up so we could plan. Her expression turned serious. "Wear something decent and do something with your hair. I wish Luna Selena was here she knows how to make you look good while still being yourself." The mention of Luna Selena made me smile. She always advised me on royal events, with Sebastian essentially becoming her fashion enforcer.

After several futile protests including that time Sebastian brought Alistair and Rowan to literally hold me down while he dressed me I'd learned to just accept his suggestions, only insisting on shorts under dresses and comfortable shoes. "When are we actually heading back to the training center?" I asked, though Aria had been asking the same question daily. "Our lease expires in two weeks, she sighed, flopping back on the bed. We shou start packing the non essentials. Weather's turning cold, and I don't want to be stuck here.

I want those stuffy elders to hurry up with their ceremonies and give us our marks already." She stared at the ceiling. "They probably love the ceremonial crap being the ceer of attention, each getting their special moment in the spotlight "Good point, I nodded. "Think we'll get to hang with Alistair and Rowan when we back? Feels like forever since we've seen them," "After last time? Doubt they II let the four of us loose again, Aria burst out laughing 'That was completely Rowan's fault!" I couldn't help joining in. Who brings canes to movie night?

We didn't turn the outdoor theater into a fire hazard. ||| O r 1/2 09:46 Mon, Jan 12 GB Chapter 110: I'm Sure Plenty of Guys Would Want to Date You ས ༢77%L "He was trying to be romantic for their anniversary, Aria defended. "Though I dont get why they celebrate everything weekly, monthly, even location- based anniversaries. When they hit actual milestones, those tiny celebrations will seem pointless. She shrugged. 'Not that I'd know. Never dated anyone long enough for anniversaries." "Really?" I looked at her, surprised. "You seem like the type who'd have guys lining up.

You literally look like a magazine cover. Im sure plenty of guys would want to date you." "Oh, I've had my share,' she admitted. 'But my dad's super serious about mates. He hasn't forbidden dating, but he always says it's not fair to monopolize someone who might not be mine. So I keep things casual and honest. I think we have instincts about true mates anyway - I can't stay interested in any guy for long. Her eyes sparkled mischievously. "Though I've learned some interesting things along the way." "Like what?" I joked.

"That you like being in control?" "Obviously!" she answered without hesitation. "It feels amazing, and they don't have to do much, so it's harder to mess up!" My jaw nearly hit the floor. She'd never been this direct before. I could only stare at her, face burning, with no clue how to respond.

While I'd learned plenty by watching her interactions, there was no non-awkward way to admit "I haven't even held a boy's hand officially." "Since we're sharing," she tilted her head playfully, "what's your favorite position "Um..." I fidgeted with my fingers, not wanting to lie but definitely not comfortable sharing such details. "Don't stress," she said more gently. "You don't seem like the casual hookup type it's totally fine if you're taking things slow." "Actually... I don't have a favorite position," I mumbled, avoiding her gaze and hoping she'd catch my hint.

Few things made me blush, but this topic definitely topped the list. "So no experience?" her tone softened, the teasing gone. "That's completely fine. didn't either until last year. I just figured I should learn a few things before finding my mate. You know, in case he's also clueless, at least one of us will know what we're doing." She had a point.

From what I knew if the sounds from Elliot's room and rumors about his friends meant anything - the guys had plenty of practice." Elliot once tried explaining that their wolf nature, especially for higher-ranking wolves almost required that kind of release as they neared eighteen. 'It's not just a lack of experience, I finally admitted. "It's zero experience. Like aid, those guys only really noticed me last year. Before that, I didn't even have girlfriends to talk about this stuff with." Comments 2 Write Comments
