Evaline:
With all my friends gone, I locked the dorm's main entrance before finally turning to face Draven.
I cleared my throat. "And you are taking me to your mansion for the holidays…?"
His expression softened, and he nodded. "That's exactly it. I'll drive you there, and then you'll stay with us during the holidays - with me, Oscar, Kieran, River. I promise you will have a great time there with us,."
I blinked, not sure where to begin about how many things were wrong with this plan. "I-Draven, I'm grateful. I really am, but I don't think it's right. Kieran and River, they don't even know about my mate bonds with you and Oscar. What it's gonna look like to them if I turned up at your house like an uninvited guest. We can't even say that I'm your friend."
That's right. There wasn't a single possible excuse for me to spend the holidays at the Rogue Alphas' Mansion even if I had a reason and even a right to be there.
