Chapter 95

11. When Two Lycans Clash

SKYLA.

“Oh for fuck’s sake,” Leo says when we hear Dad.

I sigh. I need to face him eventually and I want to get to him before he says something to hurt Royce. I spin around when Leo calls me.

“Skyla.”

“What?” I say as I pull open the door.

“He’s a father, even if he is fucking acting like an uncivilised dickhead right now.” He says, making me smirk.

I think I don’t mind him.

“But?” I say, knowing he isn’t done.

“But he’s still fucking worried about you. Things are going to get rough. I don’t need to be Dante to know that. It’s best we smooth shit out, because when shit hits the fucking fan, we are going to need to be… at an understanding with one another.”

I roll my eyes. Honestly, these men and their egos.

And yes, I have one too.

“United? Is that the word you were looking for?” I taunt.

“Na, I’m good.” He says. “But you get me, right?”

“Aww, is it a hard pill to swallow ladder boy?”

He pauses mid-drag on his cigarette, looking at me, before he coughs, making me smirk.

“Yeah, I know things.” I say smugly.

“Fucking women.” He growls.

Standing up, he tries to stifle another cough.

Act as unbothered as you want. We both know you weren’t expecting me to know that shit.

I can’t help but smirk as he walks over to me and cocks a brow.

“What are you fucking waiting for? For him to break your precious man’s nose?”

I frown.

“Just do what I said and try to keep your fucking cool.” He says, opening the door.

“Wasn’t one big brother enough?” I grumble, snatching the cigarette from his hand and taking a drag on it. “Fine! I’ll try to see his point of view. I’ll go talk to the grumpy old dude.”

“Yeah, maybe today before he trashes my entire fucking house.” He says, frowning at me before snatching his cigarette back.

“Buzzkill.” I say as we both head down the hall just as Royce comes down the hallway.
