Miguel's pov
"Where have you been?" Bianca asked when she saw me standing there with my entire focus on the forest Manuel walked into.
Sniffing around me, she growls "I will seriously kill that mtf. doesn't he take a hint?" she angrily looks at the forest " I know you're there Manuel. Know I won't be lenient with you next time, "she takes my hand in hers and dragged me towards her car.
" What's with everyone I meet dragging me? " I asked when she all but shoved me into the car.
" Do you know how worried I was when I didn't see you after school? how worried I was when your mom told me you weren't back from school when I phoned your house?"
I look at her I alarm "did you tell her am missing?"
she shakes her head " luckily no. I told her you might have gone to the triplets' house and that made her ecstatic."
I groaned, face palming myself as I did so " why out of all the excuses you could have made use of did you choose that?"
Now I won't hear the end of it from mom who will try to ask for every juicy details ( I've not seen someone as shameless as she is) of what happened between the four of us.
"You should have thought about that before you walked into the forest with Manuel," she hits the steering "for goddess's sake Miguel how many times have I warned you to stay away from him?" she looks as angry as she's driving.
" Slow down, you might kill us both!" I shout when she increased the speed.
" I rather kill us both than have you ruin your relationship with the Alphas!" she glares at me " the Alphas won't be happy if they hear you were seen in the forest with Manuel. Forest! a god damn forest Miguel.
What happened to you the first time sure haven't taught you a lesson on blindly following people especially those who acts all friendly and harmless."
" I promise I won't allow him come near me, " I don't mean to keep the promise, but there's no need telling Bianca that.
Manuel looks to be in need of a friend; he would have harmed me in the forest when we were all alone but he didn't because he cares enough for me.
He's not as bad as Bianca is painting him to be..
"That's what you say now, but later I will still see you together!" she looks like she's not too far from flinging me off the moving car.
" I promise I won't allow him anywhere near me," at least not when you're present.
" I'll hold you up too your promise," she sighs " am just looking out for you Miguel. The Alphas won't survive if anything happens to you; you're the only thing keeping them from Insanity," she gives me a tired look " you should do well to know nothing you do reflects back on them."
She stops the car in front of our building " do you mind if I come in for some coffee?" she gives me a hopeful expression.
Her coming in might be to my advantage since mom will be too engrossed on a visitor to pay me any heed.
"Sure," I smile too brightly "you can come in for dinner if you want, mom prepares more than enough for three people to eat."
" Superb!" she climbs out of her car and walks to the door without even bothering to open the door for me, neither did she care to walk me to the door .
Is this how to treat a Luna?
this girl sure need to learn more about the right ways of treating a Luna.
"Daughter!"mom gasped when she saw Bianca 'its nice of you to visit," she widely opens the door before enveloping the giddy Bianca in a hug.
"Am back from school, the classes went by smoothly and am too tired I will love to have a bath. Thanks for asking."
I glare at the female who've totally forgotten about her precious son in favour of a girl she now claims is her daughter.
The way this woman keeps having children is quite alarming; I won't be surprised if the entire town's people becomes her children.
"You're too old to be acting like a baby, you need to act like a grown up man," mom rolls her eyes at me "what will you like to have for dinner?" Dhe asked Bianca.
I know why she's doing this; she wants me to get back with the triplets at all cost.
"The triplets were perfect gentleman today," I said as I walked past her.
"What did you say?" mom looks at me with interest "did you really go to their house today?"
" I went there after school, and man must I say they're good hosts. They took care of me to the extent I asked to move in with them."
" You don't mean this!" mom shrieks " wait let me prepare your favorite dinner, and we can discuss this over meal," her eyes sparkles as she said those words.
" I don't know talking about those three can get you to shower me with your attention," I sadly shakes my head " I would have lied about them like I did now when I asked you to make pancakes for me."
Mom's face clouds in anger " you played me for a fool?" she glares at Bianca " I thought you told me he went to the triplets' house?"
" Well....uh... you....." she gives me a panicked expression, but I ignored her.
"You what? have you suddenly gone dumb?" mom places her hands on her waist as she glares Bianca down.
She will reap the fruit of her lies. I don't care what they both do, all I care about is taking about steamy bath, and....
"Where are you coming back from?"
I widened my eyes in shock as I took in the triplets' scowling faces.
Oh man!
