The Challenge Two Alphas, One Girl
Chapter 56: Ladies’ Luncheon
Elizabeth’s POV
That w***e was here. Felicity sat directly across from me at the table next to my Mazey with Friday on Mazey’s other side so that Mazey was between an old w***e and a new one. Malachi sat on Felicity’s other side so that my arch nemesis and husband’s long-time mistress got to sit between said ex-husband and my only son as though she were replacing me. I felt a strong, warm hand enclose my left hand which had been resting on the table. Mazey was stretching across the table to hold it reminding me of when he was little. He was too precious. I calmed a little. My other hand was in Cody’s rough palms. Cody was directly across from Malachi. The silence was deafening.
“How is everyone?” Boomed Thaddeus from Friday’s other side. Why was she always forcing those two to hang out together? I really liked Thaddeus but where was the competitive aspect of this challenge if all three were always together? Thaddeus’ parents were next to me with True sitting on my left. Fang and Astrid were also on that side of the table and Theo was on Thaddeus’ right with Ida. The two pairs of twins were next to them: Timothy, Titus, Fallon and Fargo. It was a reunion of sorts.
“I’m well, thank you Thaddeus,” I said. Cody nodded. “Yes, I’m fine,” said Felicity brightly. “Never been better,” said Malachi, grinning. Ugh.
I noticed his neck was marked and stiffened. Felicity also bore his mark, the silvery quality of it shimmered catching the sunlight and to think, I’d hesitated to let Cody mark me.
“How’re you doing, Elizabeth?” Asked Malachi hesitantly.
“Great,” I said stiffly, feeling annoyed. I knew he was wondering why I had not come to see him at all since the first day at the hospital. I wasn’t about to show my face there again when he’d used his Alpha voice to command me to stop fighting Felicity, thus advertising that I wasn’t his
true Luna. I felt a small pang of guilt though. He had been shot and we had been married for twenty-five years and we did have Mazey together but he was alive, wasn’t he? No harm done.
“And who is this?” Asked Felicity, always trying to be friendly. She was looking at Cody, smiling.
“Cody,” said Cody, shaking her hand. “Lizzie’s old friend.” I had not told him what to say yet. I had just said I wanted to take things slowly.
Malachi did not extend his hand to shake Cody’s. “Malachi, this is Cody,” I said pointedly so he would acknowledge him.
“Cody and I know each other,” he said as though that were obvious. I bristled. I was shocked he remembered Cody. Well Cody did tell Malachi’s Dad to ‘f**k off” so he must have made an impression.
Friday, in a tone that suggested anything but that. I almost snorted with laughter but I stifled it. I wan’t about to laugh at Friday’s comments. I knew I was being a tad unfair. She was a different person than her mother but she had the same floozy
