My Secret, My Bully, My Mates

Firm hands grab my shoulders and I stiffen. He doesn't try to move me, just keeps me from opening the door. I take a breath in and that's when I noticed it, I can smell Cam's thick citrus smell, but faintly blending with that is her. The smell might be a day or so old, but it's there on his skin. He's been with her, they probably both have. It takes everything for me not to let the tears behind my eyes fall. I took another deep breath willing them back and it was a terrible idea.

"Please stay Tiny, he wants you here."

I shrug his hands off. "If you put your hands on me again, I will remove them with the weapons you gifted me. And we have had this conversation before Cameron. We are not friends, only my friends get to use nicknames."

"And get to touch you apparently." Kota says bitterly.

I turn sharply. "So we're going to do this now? Fine. Everyone knows you haven't been allowed to touch me, talk to me or in general come near me." Kota rolls his eyes. It pisses me off. "Had s*x with Kaley in the last two days?" I go directly for the lowest blow and look between the two of them just staring at me open mouthed.

"I don't know what you're..."

"Talking about?" I narrow my eyes. "Remember. I can smell the difference between you two. You may dress and act the same for everyone else, but you can't hide from me, Dakota. Do you think I wouldn't smell her all over you? Go be a hypocrite to someone else."

They both have the decency to look ashamed at least. Even the Luna stays silent. None of them explain or defend themselves. I don't break the silence, they can live in this awkward moment forever, I have time apparently.

"Skylar, you don't understand, this is so complicated, so many more things are at play here that you realize." Cam, always the placating one.

I just laugh, I'm not touching that with a ten foot pole. I don't know if there is some way that Kaley can listen in on their conversations, but I don't want her knowing we suspect her and her father of this whole f*cked up situation. We still haven't put all the pieces together yet either. I know there is something I am missing.
