Song- Dancing On My Own by Calum Scott
(I like his version better than Robyn's ♥️)
Chapter 30
"Lynn left" LA tells me as he plops down on my bed beside me.
I am silent, which makes him curious. He turns to stare at me.
"What?" I ask him.
"You're not happy that he's gone?"
"I am" I sigh, "though I shouldn't be"
"What-"
"He doesn't belong in Spain, LA" I say fiercely, "He belongs here. In Little West. With his parents. And pack"
LA scowls, "the people there are pack too"
"I know, but..." I trail off.
"But what?"
"Nothing" I say, but he doesn't look away from my face and I find myself confessing, "For some reason I am feeling very empathetic towards him"
When he doesn't comment, I continue, "I was so out of it because my parents left me, and I just can't imagine what he must be going through" I breathe through my nose. "He's never even met his Mom, LA"
He gives me a sad smile.
"Moons... I feel like shit now" I shake my head, and then something else pops in my head, "How come Cameron knew about him anyway?"
LA's face shuts off so fast, I worry about whiplash.
"LA?" I say in warning, "Are you hiding something from me?"
"No" he says too quickly for my liking and it makes me uncomfortable. And sad. I can't even trust LA now?
"You do realize that you are feeling like this because your parents are in town, right?" LA points out, as if I didn't already know that.
I tend to grow a stupid conscience when they are with me.
"Did Pa pay up?" I ask him and he grins as he hands me a couple of $20 bill.
"I feel bad for him. And Ronaldo. I really do... But think about the Pizza we can buy" he says giddily, making me smile. This boy.

It's nearly midnight and I cannot sleep. No matter how hard I try to.
It might not be a big deal, but my body is burning up and my core is tingling like anything. I am trembling like crazy and.
I know exactly what is happening. I just wish it wasn't happening tonight. Mia is unsettled too. She keeps on howling.
'Mia?' I ask tentatively. When she does not reply, I probe, 'Why is this happening? Are you okay?'
She doesn't reply, instead sends me visuals. Of me writhing underneath a dark body. The pure carnal ecstasy on my face in the visual makes me flush.
"You can't be serious" I say out loud and get off the bed. The trembling has intensified, thanks to my stupid, horny beast.
Walking is a harder task than you can imagine, my knees feel weak. Lust is a bitch.
I try to take a step, but my knees buckle and I fall to the ground. There is a thrumming in my base and it feels like hell.
I let out a soft moan, which sounds louder than I had intended and I have to bit my lips to keep my mouth shut.
I can't wake up everyone in the house. What will they think of me? A female who hasn't found her mate going into heat? I can just imagine the looks and rumours.
