Chapter 308-The House Of The Lycan
Helanie:
"But be careful. Things are getting out of hand these days. Especially for—you know—the werewolf community. People are claiming to have seen a new kind of threat in the area. I’m doing my research on it, but in the meantime, make sure you’re on alert," Norman patted Emmet’s shoulder, and my eyes shifted to Emmet’s jacket. I had never seen him wear a jacket before, so this one stood out to me.
It was a beautiful black jacket with his initials, E-M, near the pockets. It must have been a gift to him.
"Okay—" Emmet was in the middle of responding when he spotted me, and I saw the mood change. "Hey, you arrived late. I hope you had fun with your friends," he started talking almost instantly, as if he was telling his brother we weren’t alone.
"Yeah, we were just checking out some places," I lied, giving them both a closed-lip smile. I did notice Norman glare at me up and down like I had done something wrong.
"Okay, I’ll go sleep now," I pointed my thumb over my shoulder toward my room.
"You’re not going to eat dinner?" Emmet asked while Norman stood with his head high, his eyes averted from me.
He was suddenly acting so weird.
"No! I’ve eaten plenty," I said, though that was true. Lamar and I had a great dinner with Gavin’s mother. I couldn’t forget how Lamar was feeding her whenever she started crying. I couldn’t believe a guy like Lamar was so sweet and humble.
I guess first impressions and interactions aren’t always accurate. Or in simple terms, people do change for the better.
"Okay then, hope you rest well," Emmet greeted, and with a nod of my head, I went to my room.
