Chapter 423
| spent three hours sorting through the papers in the box. My mind was full of codes of line and the random
scribbled ideas that
Rick had while building the security system. | groaned when my alarm went off. | was nowhere near done sorting
through
everything and | had zero clue what | was even looking for.
| sat back on my heels and sighed. | jumped up from my bed and ran downstairs to grab a drink when there was
a knock at the
door. | glanced at the tand saw | had three minutes to get back to my room for the call. The knock sounded
again, louder,
impatient, and annoying. | sighed as | made my way to the front door. | opened it to see Brandon standing there
with a basket of
food and flower.
"Hello..." | stood in the doorway as he took a step to cin. "Brandon, what are you doing here?"

He smiled and tried to shove the flowers into my hands. "Hey baby, | cfor dinner. | brought everything for us
to have a picnic
under the stars." Something felt off.
| looked down at my watch and saw | was due upstairs in two minutes. "I told you today | had a call at nine and
you wait until now
to chere?" | raised my eyebrow. "For dinner?"
His smile grew a little tighter. "I forgot you had a call later. Can't you reschedule?"
| sighed and crossed my arms as | leaned against the door frame. “No, Brandon, | can't reschedule. I've had this
planned for
weeks now, and | can't back out a minute before the call because my boyfriend wants to have dinner under the
stars." | looked at
him. "Plus, | already told you, everything is off until you can figure out what to do about Shannon. Everyone is
still talking about
your mating ceremony in two weeks. Not ours. Yours." | stepped back, but he jumped to the door frame.
"Brandon." | nearly
growled and lost my fucking mind. But | held back.
We can kill him in two weeks. Just hold it together. Megan's tone was so dismissive, | nearly laughed.
"Amy please. I'm doing my best, it's just going top take time." He grabbed the door, trying to step into the
house, and | caught a
scent | recognized, but couldn't place.
"I know you are, but | can't allow your reputation to take another hit. | already explained it to your dad." |
grabbed the door and
held it so that he couldn't get past me. | heard the distant call from my computer screen of an incoming call. “I
appreciate the
picnic, but | have to go."
"Wait!" He slammed his body into the door, crowdingand blocking my way from closing the door. "Can't |
cin? | want to
spend the night with you." He leaned in toand drew in a sniff. "You smelled fantastic today. Is that
strawberry?" He tried to
kissand | gave him a light peck before the chfrom my computer went off again.
| pushed him back out the door. "I have to go. And | already told you, I'm saving myself for our mating ceremony.
So no, you can't stay the night." | grabbed the door as | looked across the street to see someone from the pack
watching us. "Look at Mrs. Cleroux. She is watching us and definitely judging us." Which was true, but she judged
everyone. "Everyone is expecting you to mate Shannon now. And to keep your reputation, you should." | looked
sad. "She loves you." He opened his mouth. "I love you too. And | love you enough to want you to be happy with
your decision. You keep rushing to me, tellingyou want to be with me. But

have you actually considered it? If she is what makes you happy, then be with Shannon. | won't get in the way.
But if you want to
be with me, you have to make it very clear to Shannon without being cruel."
"I understand." He looked away.
"Do you? Because yet again here you are, rushing to convinceyou want to be with me. But obviously, you
haven't spoken to Shannon since the pack still thinks you are together again." | gestured to Mrs. Cleroux, who
was still staring at us. “I don't know why | have to keep repeating myself. | deserve respect." | heard the video
call chagain and now | was getting angry. "You keep acting like flowers, food, wine, or whatever else you
have will solve everything, but it won't. The only thing that will solve all of our issues is if you actually take the
tand deal with your feelings. Shannon's rumors, and figure out who you want to be with.
| refuse to share my mate. | refuse to be the other woman." Then | slammed the door in his face and locked it.
