Cliona

One word,

One name.

It was a name that had Scarlet dazed for the rest of the day. After speaking to Noah Scarlet went around the town to see if anyone else knee about her mother. Some did, some didn't. What little she got from those who remembered were insignificant. Her mother was a joy, always helped out here and there but was sad and left in a hurry by the end of December.

By the time Scarlet got back to her motel room Samuel had already gotten showered and dressed along with the rest of the group to go out for dinner. Scarlet, of course, told them about the pub she found and the amount of research she managed to scrape up. She had yet to tell them about her mother's name but thought of it as unimportant, it's just that Cliona was not a common name in the werewolf world. In fact it was only used for one person, their goddess.

Of course Scarlet's mother couldn't be her goddess, her goddess was known to stay as the moon, shining light on her kinds darkest hours. Her goddess, as many would call her moon goddess, kept peace over the two world whether humans knew it or not. If one were to accidentally stumble upon a wolf pack, they'd be led in another direction by illusions. In the morning they'd either not remember at all or think it was all a dream.

Her goddess was not known for walking the earth though, nor giving birth to a future goddess. It was impossible.

"Do they have good food?" Jenna stood beside Scarlet, a smile gracing her lips. Scarlet nodded warily. "Yeah, their lunch was amazing and I expect nothing less from their dinner" Scarlet and the group made it to the slightly busy pub. Not many people were eating, only a handful which Scarlet was happy about.

Scarlet immediately took a sear over by the large multi colored windows with Jenna beside her and Samuel in front of her. Liam sat next to Samuel cornering him while Russell took a seat in the far back corner of the pub. He watched Scarlet as she glanced his way then ignored his presence.

Scarlet had no intention of leaving her pack without a Luna but she had no intention of mating Xavier either. Scarlet knew she couldn't have the best of both worlds and so she postponed it.

Jenna grew stiff.

Scarlets eyes immediately went to Noah. "Noah!" Scarlet exclaimed, her smile grew at the sight of Noah's "I'm glad you could make it" he looked from Scarlet to around the table, his eyes finally settling on Jenna. "Nice to meet Scarlets you guys, she's talked plenty" Scarlet looked away, she told him little about her friends and more about her past. But she left out on big detail.

"Do you guys need anytime to order or have you figured out what you want to eat?" The team scanned through their menu in a matter of seconds before handing them to him and ordering. When he left Scarlet turned to Jenna "he's your mate" she stated, Scarlet could see Samuel's hands from the side of her eyes clench and unclench. He played it off well.

So Samuel was indeed in love with both of us. Scarlet confirmed, her mind drifted back to this morning and what had went on with Xavier. She could feel her arousal but pushed it back. No need for her friends to smell it.

"And he's human" Jenna finished off, her eyes gazed over Noah who swiftly moved around the room, greeting customers and taking orders. Jenna sighed. "We can't stay her any longer Jenna, first thing in the morning we are leaving. If you want to stay you can but their is no guarantee that you can have a relationship with him without telling him who you are. And that's strictly against law" Jenna looked to the table, small frowning taking over her face.

Scarlet turned to her side.

In a way Scarlet felt like this was revenge but she also knew the troubles of rejecting a mate. With Jenna having a human mate and her not being high rank, she was able to move on little to no pain. The worst that could happen would be her wolf to suppress.

Jenna looked at the table. It seemed they were doing that a lot. Looking, breathing, contemplating and thinking.

Noah returned with our food, his body swayed slightly to Jenna's side but instead of knowledging his presence, Jenna ignored it. Scarlet and her group ate quickly, much to Noah's dismay.

Noah during his break talked with Liam and Russell at a different table while Jenna, Scarlet and Samuel paid no attention to each other. To any passerbyer they'd look like a bunch of teenagers obsessed with their phones but to them, each knew tension was thick and left no room for conversation. Finally Jenna stood up "I think it's time to go, we've got to head out early tomorrow" just before Jenna would make it outside Noah grabbed a hold of her wrist, spun her around and gave her a slow but easy kiss.

Jenna stood stunned when he pulled away. Noah caressed her cheek "I know what you are," he turned to Scarlets wide eyes "I know what you all are" his eyes ran over the group looking just as stunned as Jenna felt. "And most importantly I know that I am your mate" Jenna cried, it had been so long since Scarlet saw Jenna cry.

Snapping out of her daze Scarlet gasped lightly, she stood up and without thinking she pulled Jenna to her chest. "Shh. . ." She soothed, Scarlet turned to Noah "what are you talking about" Noah's eyes rested on Jenna, small bits of sadness showing.

"Your mother told me you'd be visiting when she left. She told me I'd receive a gift for giving her happiness and in return I'd have someone precious to my heart. I didn't know it at first but when Jenna walked through the door, God she was all I could think about." Jenna pulled away slowly, her head soaked eyes looking Noah over. "I thought I couldn't have you!" She whimpered "I thought I'd lose my wolf and mate" Noah pulled her into his chest. She wrapped her arms around his waist before giving her a kiss on her forehead.

"Well that was a turn of events" muttered Samuel, pulling off my draw I gazed out the back window with wondering eyes. Was Xavier watching? Closing my eyes I turned to Samuel who held a bitter expression. We've been friends since we were kids and dating since we were teens, couldn't he had least told me he loved another?

I walked over silently to Samuel, my fit snapping against the cheap lamanit wood. I sighed standing between his knees. Samuel gave me a forced smile. "Come on" he beckoned me to bed but instead of sleeping with him like he wanted and 'doing the deed' I pulled away. Samuel lost Jenna and now he was losing me.

"I dont think that's a good idea Samuel" he frowned "what?" Was he reply "I don't want to sleep with you tonight" Samuel held out his hand, his eyes darkening. "Don't play with me Scarlet, get in bed" I shook my head "no" Samuel stood up, his body towering over mine but I wasn't scared of him. I wasn't scared of anyone except my mate, if I can even call him that anymore.

"Scarlet" Samuel warned. I shook my head again turning to the yellowing door, Samuel grabbed my wrist in a bruising grip. "Samuel!" I exclaimed, tugging at my wrist I tried to get free. Why does everyone go for my wrist! I growled, my chest rumbled along with the room, Samuel stared me dead in the eyes. Tired of his childish games I let my wolf come forward.

"Let. Me. Go" she was pissed, we loved Samuel with all of our heart but he ended up loving another without telling us. Now that I thought about it Samuel's sexual drive was higher than usual normally it was twice or even three times a week but lately it was every day.

Samuel released me.
