Chapter 53

Luara's POV

Bryan had attempted to contact me but after my obvious ignorance, he decided to give me the space that I needed which was surprising.

My wolf was missing him and would growl at me every time I blocked her whimpering and crying. She was missing him and continued to make excuses for why he did what he did.

The thought of taking a pregnancy test lingered in my head but I forced it to the back of my mind not wanting to have to deal with the situation yet.

I had been at school for about a week, and I wondered why I hadn't made contact with Melinda, the school's most popular girl.

It confused me further when her friends ignored and acted like I didn't exist when they would usually join in with their pathetic torture which I always got the upper hand on. But I shrugged it off, not thinking anything of it as I sat at my usual table at lunch munching on a slice of pizza.

"I'm dreading Phys Ed, I have no effort even if I am a werewolf." My friend Mae said, whispering the last part as we shared a school with humans.

I laughed, nodding my head feeling the exact same way about our next class. Once the bell rang signaling that lunch was over, I forced myself to endure physical education and thankfully it was my last lesson of the day.

"Hey, dad." I said as I walked into my father's office, to find him sitting at his desk typing furiously on his laptop.

Lifting his head, he smiled and motioned for me to come over and sit on the couch sitting by the huge window in the corner of the room.

"Give me a second," he said as he quickly finished typing an email before he closed his laptop and turned to me.

"So, how was school?" he questioned as he focused all his attention on me.

"It was alright, I just thought I'd come and see what you were doing."

He smiled at my reply and then a frown appeared on his face as he looked around the room and to the door as if to see if anyone else but he and I were in the range of our conversation.

"So, what happened between you and Bryan for you to come home? You're clearly mated and it's unusual for a newly mated couple to be away from each other. Did he do something to you? Because I have no problem in going over there and kicking his bu-"

I interrupted him before he could finish his sentence, I almost laughed at the thought of my dad making sure that my mom wasn't in hearing range of his questioning about Bryan.

"It doesn't matter, he did something that upset me and we'll have to sort it out ourselves." I didn't want to involve my father in our argument.

I was still feeling indecisive and hesitant about having to talk to Bryan again, but I knew I would see him again. For the past few days, I have been pushing the thought of taking a pregnancy test to the back of my mind, hoping that the problem would go away.

"He did something that upset you and I would like to know what." His tone was serious and since he and Bryan had no liking towards each other they seemed to like the idea of having more reasons to hate each other.

"He just said something that he shouldn't have." I said, hoping that he would drop the subject as I was beginning to become uncomfortable.

Thankfully, he nodded and left it at that but not before staring into my eyes trying to figure out if I was lying or not.

"So, how's school? I know you've missed a lot and you've probably got tons of work to catch up on."

"You have no idea." I said exasperated when he mentioned work that I missed. My dad just chuckled at my answer.

"How's school without Tiannah or is she attending? You need to figure out what you're doing about school. Whether you're going to continue your education here or on Bryan's territory but knowing Bryan it will be the latter."

"It's not that bad although I do miss my best friend. I spoke to her the other day though and she said that she started school there so I will probably too." I wanted to grumble the last 4 words but I didn't want my dad to think something really awful happened as I didn't doubt that he would cross the boundary lines and challenge Bryan.

"That was expected. In fact, Melinda was in here a few days ago informing me that she had found her mate-" I froze at this new information and almost laughed, I felt sorry for the poor guy who had to deal with Melinda for the rest of his life. "He's in Bryan's pack."

"Wait-what?" I groaned.

My dad chuckled at my reaction. My mouth was agape as I stared at my father hoping and praying that he was lying. But then again, the thought of being able to boss her around was strangely satisfying.

Deciding that I had more important things I needed to do and think about, I put the thought of Melinda away.

"Well I've got some things to do. I'll see you later." I said kissing my dad on the cheek and exiting his office.

Once downstairs, I grabbed my car keys from the kitchen counter before heading outside. I had to know whether I was pregnant or not. I couldn't keep trying to ignore and pretend that I wasn't pregnant when there was a high possibility that I was.

Opening the doors to the store, I walked down the aisles until I found what I was looking for. There were so many tests that I felt like my head was going to explode. So, I just picked up 4 random pregnancy tests.

I didn't even look at the cashier as I paid for my products too embarrassed and far into my thoughts to care about her judging gaze.

I headed straight home, ignoring the calls from my mom as I raced up the stairs to the sanctuary of my bedroom.

Rushing into the bathroom, I immediately ripped the tests from the packaging. Quickly reading the instructions, I peed on all the tests before washing my hands and leaving the tests on the sink awaiting the results.

After seeing the results, my heart stopped. It brought so many emotions out, anxiousness being the most prominent. I decided to hop in my car and head to Bryan’s.

Walking up the daunting steps to Bryan's home, all of my nerves were feeling static from uneasiness unsure of how he would react. An almost dreading feeling was zooming through me as I got closer and closer to the front door. Bryan and I needed to have a serious conversation and I was scared of how this situation would turn out.

I was nervous and apprehensive about seeing Bryan again, but I forced myself to place my hand on the door handle.

Just as I was about to open it, it was suddenly pulled open. Only for me to be faced with a woman standing in nothing but a large t-shirt smothered in the scent of my mate and pure arousal. Catching the gaze of a woman but I never expected it to be the one person I hated most.
