Fang’s POV
I paced back and forth through my bedroom. I sighed exasperatedly. I took a deep breath. There could be more than one Felicity. The former alpha could have known a different Felicity. Ugh, I sounded like one of those wishful thinkers. I kept thinking of that dinner we had between the Fenestra family and the Mason family. The former alpha must have compared my mother to Friday and called them both beautiful like a dozen times. How dense could I be? How had I not noticed that before? I smashed the mirror we had recently replaced.
“Fang,” pleaded Astrid. “We just got a new one after you smashed the last one remember.” I snarled. She recoiled.
“Why do you hate me all of a sudden?” Asked Astrid.
I felt a pang of guilt. I knew I was being an asshole to Astrid these days but I did not have time to baby her with everything going on right now. I had not slept at all last night after I had found that carved name in the alpha bedroom.
“I don’t hate you, Baby,” I said softly.
She was sniffling. I rolled my eyes but pulled her to me. “I have a lot on my mind,” I murmured in her ear. She was tense at first in my arms but she quickly relaxed and wrapped her arms around my torso, burying her head in my chest.
Who should I confront about this? Maze? That would be a mess. The former alpha himself? That would be the most dramatic person to go to. My mom? I could not face her. My dad? What if his drunkard self had no idea and I was ruining his ignorance is bliss mindset with this news. There was one other person I could ask!
Igently released Astrid. “Where are you going?” She whined. “To check on Friday,” I said matter-of-factly.
She nodded in approval.
I found Friday scribbling in Maze’s journal again, cocooned in her mates’ clothes. The sight of her wrapped up like a burrito actually made me smile. “Friday?” I said.
“Morning, Fang,” said Friday, her voice sounding a little weaker than the previous day. Her eyes looked tired. She was clutching her abdomen, hugging herself. An episode of pain gripped her before O could ask her anything.
“Do you know anything about Mom and former Alpha Malachi being close?” I asked as nonchalantly as I could manage, even plastering a fake ass smile on my face.
Friday’s POV
My heart plummeted. He knew! I knew my brother well enough to know when he was smiling on the surface but seething underneath. I did not know what to say. My brother would undoubtedly tell my father and then all hell would break loose. A sharp pain sliced through me. I groaned and doubled over, curling up into a ball. I needed Thaddeus and Maze.
Yes that’s exactly what we need , whined the usually stronger me as tears streamed down my cheeks.
“Forget about it, for now,” he muttered, patting my head and stroking my hair. “Are the painkillers you’re taking for the foot helping with the heat at all?”
I shook my head no. “Ok,” said Fang simply. I peaked up at him. He looked so…broken. I bit my lip. I had never been as invested in my parents being together because I was always left out anyway but news like this would be devastating for Fang. He probably thought they had all been a happy family sans me of course. I sighed, shutting my eyes tightly.
“I’m coming back, just now, ok, Sis, don’t move!” said Fang. He was gone in a flash.
Now is our chance! Said the other me.
