Chapter 35 (Evangeline)

When I close the door on Alpha Jordan and Jaxon I turn and Maggie smashes into me again.

“I’ve missed you,” she says, holding me tightly.

“I’ve missed you too,” I tell her, wrapping my arms around her.

“So, wow, you and Super Hotty?”

“Yeah, I know it seems soon, but I feel it, Maggie. I know he’s my mate.”

“Dad’s been very quiet this week. I’m not sure what’s going on in his head, but I know he wants you to come home. We all miss you. It would be one thing if you became an Alpha and took over your own pack. But this is different. The way you left…” her voice chokes up and I pull her to me again.

“Let’s see how things go this week. Mom seems to be wavering both ways. Sometimes, I feel like she’s on my side and sometimes I feel like she wants to pull me away from Jaxon. Jaxon has been nothing but supportive. So, if they won’t allow him to come train with our pack next week, I won’t be coming home either.”

“Where will you go?”

“Either back to Alpha Jonas’s or to Aunt Sophia’s pack. If they won’t take us, then we’ll find someplace else to live until the next competition. It’s only a couple of months away.”

Her eyes go wide. “Evie…”

“Let’s not worry about that now. I need to go punch dad a few times to work off my anger at him.”

We finish getting ready and head downstairs. I see Jaxon walking back inside, smiling when he sees me.

“I saw you weren’t outside yet, so I thought I’d come wait for you,” he says, wrapping his arm around my shoulders.
