Chapter 105: Ayla I talked to Mina about how to approach Kylee about me and Theo. I knew it wouldn’t be easy, and itwould take time for us to work toward repairing our relationship. But I needed to do it. “I know it’s not what you want to hear, honey,” Mina said, “but that conversation won’t end well. Kyleestill thinks she can get Theo back. It’s pretty annoying. That’s why I have limited contact. I’m justchecking in to make sure they aren’t starving. But when she replaces out about you and Theo, she’s goingto blame you. One hundred percent.’ ” My shoulders fell. I knew that was likely what would happen, but I had hoped she had at least beentrying to move on from Theo. “Don’t get me wrong, Ayla,” Mina said sympathetically. “She’s wrong. Completely wrong. And she hasno right to be upset about this because of what she did to get with him in the first place. But I want youto go into this with realistic expectations. And know that I support you. Personally, I don’t think you oweher anything. But I understand why this is important to you.” “Thank you,” I said. I tried to call Kylee that evening, but she didn’t answer. I didn’t know if she knew it was me calling ornot, so I called Ma. She did answer. It was an awkward conversation as she tried to avoid discussinganything that had happened, including accusing me of stealing from her. We didn’t talk long after shesaid Kylee wasn’t there. I sent Kylee a text saying we needed to talk and that she could call me whenever. But she never did. Ikept trying for two days before finally resigning myself to drive down and see her in person. 0.00% 12:21 Chapter 105 Ayla 288 iVouchers Theo and I had been avoiding being seen together since the packhouse incident. And when we did run

into each other, we kept our interactions formal. But it was anything but a piece of cake. The sexualtension between us whenever we were in the same room was torture. We tried to steal a few minutesin a secluded area the second day but came too close to getting caught. And getting any decent sleepwas proving to be impossible. So, despite the rough visit returning home would be, not going wasn’t anoption anymore. ‘Hey,’ I reached out through the mind-link, ‘are you going to be home later?’ ‘Baby wherever you need me to be, I’ll be there,’ he replied enthusiastically. ‘I’ll clear the packhouse ifyou want me to.’ suppressed a smile. ‘I don’t think that will be necessary. But I do want to see you.’ ‘Is something wrong?’ he asked with concern.

‘Still no luck getting a hold of Kylee, I told him. ‘I think it’s time I drove down there.” I could sense Theo’s sigh through the connection. He didn’t like the idea, but he wouldn’t stop me,either. ‘Okay,’ he said. ‘When can I see you?’ ‘I’m having lunch with Annabelle,” I said. ‘Give me an hour?’ ‘Your apartment?’ ‘Yeah,’ I confirmed. ‘I’ll be there,’ Theo agreed. 24.86% 12:221 Chapter 105: Ayla As soon as we broke the connection, Annabelle came out of the kitchen. “Come on,” she said, giving me a hug. “I’ve got a table with some privacy. I let her guide me toward the windows. There was a divider that separated a few tables from the rest ofthe dining room. It was a nice little private corner that kept us out of sight from any other pack members

that came in. Annabelle said they reserved this area for kitchen staff during the day unless the Alpha orother ranking members need it for meetings. While we were out of sight, the divider wasn’t a solid wall. I soon learned we could hear other dinersquite easily if they weren’t practicing discretion. “You saw who showed up with Alpha Theo the day of the attack, right?” a female voice drifted over. “Girl, don’t even get me started with that,” another female said bitterly. “I knew she sabotaged Kyleeand his relationship out of jealousy, but I didn’t think she’d have the nerve to actually f**k Alpha Theo.” I froze. Meeting Annabelle’s gaze, I knew she had heard it too. “If she hadn’t been such a sl*t when she was a teenager, she might have been able to replace a mate thatwanted her,” the first voice stated. “Then maybe she wouldn’t feel the need to ruin her sister’s love life.But what can you expect from someone so selfish?”I grabbed Annabelle’s hand as it clenched into a fist, rage flashing through her eyes. “Did she really break them up?” a third voice asked. “I heard Kylee got caught lying about them beingfated mates.” 43.95% 12:21 Chapter 105 Ayla 288 (Vouchers “Yeah, okay, I wonder who started that rumor?” the first voice stated. “Ayla was so jealous of Kylee thather younger sister was going to be Luna that she went rogue. When she still couldn’t replace a wolf that wanted her, she took it out on Kylee. I just can’t believe the audacity of her showing up here. Does shereally think anyone will accept her back in the pack?” “I’m sure Alph Theo is just using her anyway,” the second voice chimed in. “He’ll be crawling back to Kylee in no time. Besides, Alpha Torin would never let him matewith a wh**e like her.”

I begged Annabelle with my eyes not to do anything. Since we had reconnected, we had quickly gottenclose again. After saving her, Mina convinced me to tell her about Theo and I and what had happenedwith Kylee. “If he even knows what’s going on,” the first said. “Kylee may be too nice to call her sister out, but I’mnot. Oh, goddess, did that mean Kylee knew? “Does she even know?” the third voice inquired. “Have you told her?” “I’m not doing that to her, another said. “,” poor, sweet girl has been through enough. Hopefully, Theo will come to his senses, and she can be spared the pain of hersister’s appalling behavior.” I breathed a sigh of relief. “You know that’s just wishful thinking, Amy,” the second voice said. “She’ll replace out eventually.” ” Amy. I knew that name. That was one of Kylee’s roommates. She stayed with us once. I didn’t like herthen, and this certainly didn’t change that opinion. I sat up straighter on my chair. 67.24% 12:22 Chapter 105. Ayla “Thank you so much for lunch, Annabelle,” I said clearly, giving her a wink. “I hate to eat and run, butI’m meeting with Alpha Torin. I guess I have some extra things to discuss with him about my behavior.” Annabelle grinned as I pushed my chair back and stood. I made sure the she-wolves sitting on theother side of the divider saw me leave. Even making eye contact with Amy as I passed. By the time I was halfway to my apartment, I realized my mistake. I tried calling Kylee several times butstill got no answer. I probably just ensured they would call and tell her what was going on.
