The guys were getting a good chuckle out of all of it.
My phone pinged again
From Jessie: Well can’t YOU just go tell him to leave me alone!!?
KESKA: Typical Jessie, she thinks I got left behind again. That’s the way it usually goes in my family, if I am not standing right in front of their faces I don’t exist.
I let out a frustrated sigh.
“What does she want now?” Frank asked
KESKA: “Typical family shit, they all seem to forget about me unless they want me to do something for them, and right now Jessie thinks I’m back home and can just run over to Seth’s place and tell him to back off.” I told him.
KESKA: I sent a quick text to Mackie to give her a heads up on what was happening with Jessie just in case Seth tried to come cry on her shoulder. Seth didn’t give her his new number either, so I don’t, for see her being too sympathetic to him right now either.
KESKA: “Do any of you have Seth’s number?” I asked, Pete one of the warriors answered, “My little brother David has it I think, they are on the hockey team together.”
“I hate to ask this Pete, but will you call your brother? and see if he can go and distract Seth, maybe get him out on the ice or something?” I really did hate to ask him but since I was here and not at home it was all I could do. I know what you’re thinking hockey practice in the spring, we have an indoor rink, and the coach took a page from the football coach, senior class practices year-round and it’s not like it’s constant maybe 3 days a week, 3-4 hours a day to help the next year’s team be at their best for the start of the season.
Pete was riding shot gun next to Frank, and he turned slightly in his seat to look back at me. “Aren’t you and Seth friends?” he asked “I haven’t spoken to Seth in over a month, I think he got a new number, and hasn’t bother giving it to me or Mackie”
Pete pulled out his phone to call his little brother.
“Hello” Dave answers. “Hey little Bro, how are you doing?” Seeing as all of us are wolves we can hear both sides of the conversation, especially being in such close quarters.
Even me, and I technically don’t get my wolf for another two and a half years, but then again if anyone actually paid attention, they would know things were different with me, other than just my looks.
DAVE: “Hey Pete, what’s up? I thought you had guard duty today.” David said.
“I do, I am on my way to Moon Rise pack with the Alpha family as we speak.” Pete told him. “Why the call then? Is everything ok? Was there an attack or something?”
Dave sounded a bit panicked. “No, no. calm down Dave nothing like that.
Does the team have practice today?” Pete asked. “Not until Noon, why?” Dave asked. “I need you to do us a favor, ok?
I promise I will make it up to you.” Pete responded. “What do you need me to do? And us?” Dave actually sounded happy to help his big brother out.
KESKA: (That is what it must feel like when you have a family that actually cares about you.) I thought.
PETE: “Yeah, Keska is riding with us in the last SUV, and apparently Jessie is under the impression that she didn’t make the trip, and is blowing up her phone about Seth, so can you go distract him? Maybe try to get him out on the ice early before practice? It would be an immense help.” Pete told him. “I will try Pete, but ever since he hooked up with Jessie, he has been a pain in the ass to deal with.”
Dave replied. “Sorry to hear that, Dave, I wouldn’t ask, but if Seth isn’t distracted somehow, Jessie is going to make this trip miserable for everyone.” Pete told his little brother. “I will get a couple of the guys to help, coach was wanting us to get more skate time in anyway.” Dave replied.
“Thanks Dave, I will take you to that movie that you’ve been wanting to see, on me, when I get home ok?” Pete said. “Deal” and the call was ended.
KESKA: “Thanks Pete” I said to him. “I really am sorry to have had you do that, but you were right about one thing, Jessie would have been a holy terror if something wasn’t done about Seth, let’s just hope Dave can pull it off.” It left a bitter taste in the back of my throat to use people like that, I will have to come up with a way to thank them. My phone pinged a couple more times, but I ignored it. But then after another five minutes or so it went silent.
I guess Dave was successful in distracting Seth.
MACKIE: I was looking forward to getting some time in on the mat or out on the archery range to let off a little steam. I, like Keska was a middle child, but there were only three in my family, my older brother Wyatt played football with James,
Keska’s older brother, and my little sister Demi was the little princess, who could do no wrong in my parents’ eyes. She was the same age as Lissa and Liam, Keska’s youngest twin siblings and me in the middle, also like Keska if I wasn’t standing right in front of their noses, I didn’t exist, but I am only Gamma blooded.
MACKIE: I jumped on my bike and headed for Nana Lilly’s house. She is Keska grandmother on her mothers’ side. I kind of liked the idea of baking cookies with her. We had just taken the first batch of cookies out of the oven when my phone pinged, I just took a glance at it, to see who was texting me and seen it was from Keska.
FROM KESKA: Hey just a heads up, Jessie didn’t tell Seth we were going to be gone for the day, and per typical Jessie style she thinks I’m at home. I know he has practice at noon, but wanted to give you a head’s up just in case he wanted a shoulder to cry on (cry face emoji). I just started to laugh after reading Keska’s text. “What’s so funny dear?” Nana Lilly asked.
“Seth-Jessie drama, Nana.” I told her “Oh” was her response, which made me laugh even harder. “Well, we best check those cookies, don’t want them burning.” Nana stated matter of factly. I spent the late morning and into the later afternoon with Nana Lilly.
She is the only one that seemed to notice both Keska and me.
KESKA: We pulled up to the gates at Moon Rise Pack, the lead SUV stopped to give the guard our invitation. We were directed on where to park, the first SUV had to go to park with the other pack’s security, the family SUV got to park closer to the pack house because we were family, the pack house was big four stories high with two wings coming from either side at a slight angel upwards, think of the shape of a Y but the stem is turned sideways and they were two stories each, the outside was a mix of medium red, light red, and cream bricks. The last SUV again had to go park with the rest of security. Even though I was in it, as a result I was not with the rest of the family when everyone was greeted.
I watched as we were driving away to go park, I saw the look on Adrian’s face, he seemed a little upset.
