94. Hurt

Emmy’s pov

“Are you okay?” Isaac asked before he answered his own question. “Of course you’re not.”

“Do you want to talk about it, just me and you?” he asked instead.

I shook my head, “let’s just go to dinner.”

“We can have dinner outside the packhouse if you like." Isaac offered, but that would mean meeting people. Who knew if any of them had the same reaction to me as Lena did?

When I used to have dinner here, it was mostly me, the Alpha, and the Beta. Except for that time when Airk was here.

Goddess, how I loved that first week. Alpha Jace was barely around in the beginning, and I would just stay in my room and relax. I wished it would stay like that forever, where my alpha would forget about me and focus his attention elsewhere.

Although the thought of not serving the alpha made me feel guilty, if it was his choice, then it wouldn’t count, right? If he didn’t want me, then there was nothing to be done about it.

I quickly learned that these thoughts would come to punish me.
