Chapter 0158

Kaley’s face went more crimson than I have ever seen it before, but I’m not sure if it was from anger

or embarrassment at this going down with an audience.

‘“‘My father said Cameron and Dakota will be escorting me, Mateo will be escorting Jeanie and

Oliver will be escorting Marnie. I have no reason to think otherwise.

He set everything up and I expect you all to pick us up on time so we can make our entrance

properly as the future leaders of this pack.” She raises her chin to Sam as if she is giving a

command.

“T suggest you watch your tone to your future leaders.” Oliver emphasizes the word ‘leaders.’ “Your

father is not a leader in any way shape or form, and therefore has no control over us or really

anything in this pack. As you have been told on more than enough occasions, we are going as a

group.” He gestures to the guys around the sparring circle again for emphasis. “The future Alphas,

Betas, Gammas and Delta. You are none of those things. Do not expect any of us to show up to

escort you anywhere. None of us can sense our mate, so this ball is nothing more than an end of

year dance and formality for any of us.

There is no reason to make such a big deal out of it. If you choose to attend we might see you

later.” He turns and heads towards the entrance to the arena without a glance back at any of us.

I did not miss the plurals of ‘Beta’ and ‘Gamma"

including Sierra and I by our ranks. My heart stings watching him go, he’s still angry at me for

wanting to leave and not listening to his pleas to stay. I take a deep breath and roll my eyes

inwardly. He has to let me go. I can't be stifled here.

Before Kaley can say anything else Delta Kyle comes up and claps his hands. “You all did very well

today, we will see you next weekend. Make sure you work on everything that you learned today so

you can come back stronger next week. The Luna would like a word with you all so I am going to

take the rest of the training for today.” He doesn’t even spare Kaley a glance.

“Awe man! I was totally going to whoop you this time too.” Brandon stomps the ground.

‘There's always next time, little man.” Cam pats him on the shoulder.

I turn out of Dakota’s grasp. “I’m just going to grab my things then I will be on my way, you guys

don’t have to wait, I’ll catch up.” I head swiftly towards the locker area.

I don’t really have anything to grab, I just really don’t want to walk with them. There’s still a huge

tension between all of us and I’m not sure how to get past it. I guess I'll have to figure it out soon if I

want to hang out with all of them for the rest of the night though.

I fiddle around in the girls locker room for about ten minutes and figure they should be gone by now

and if they aren't I will just have to deal with them walking me to the packhouse. As I go to grab the

door it comes flying open and the momentum I wasn’t expecting knocks me on my butt. Before I

know what is happening I see a fist flying towards my head and then everything goes black.
