Not Ready For My Mate novel Chapter 18

"I have something to tell you guys." She said, a slight tremble in her voice. She took a deep breath as she looked over at all of us.

"I found my mate today- "

"Mickey that's amazing! Who is he?" I asked, a bright smile on my face. Though it fell when I saw sadness in her eyes.

"It's Brian. I know you don't like him and I know he bullied you Sky but maybe he changed and I really want to give him a chance. Please don't hate me!" She stuttered out, complete fear lacing her voice as rambled on and on. I stared at her in complete shock, not for the fact that Brian was her mate, it was the fact that she thought I would hate her. I could never hate her, I knew how important mates were, unlike a certain mate, but I knew the value of them. I could never hate her for that.

"Mickey, first of all I could never hate you. Yeah, he was an ass to me before but people change and if you truly see something different in him, a good something, then who am I to get in the way?" I questioned, smiling happily at her. It was true, yes, many people in this school had made my life hell and last year I would have never even thought of forgiving them but being with The Ancients I learnt that holding onto that anger wouldn't do me good; forgive and move on. Plain and simple. She smiled brightly at me, instantly reaching over and hugging me tightly, thanking me. I rolled my eyes at her words, hugging her back just as tightly. When she pulled away though she looked even more nervous than before.

"What's wrong? You look even more nervous." Ben questioned her, his face showing concern for her.

"Well, after speaking to Brian I kind of found out who told Kyle you were dead." She trailed off, looking anywhere else except at me. My curiosity, along with anger, immediately spiked. I had been trying to find out who the culprit was for such a long time already and wasn't any closer than when I started.

"Who was it, Mickey?" I questioned, trying to hold back a snarl from escaping my lips as I could feel my wolf on the rise, wanting to hunt down this person and make them pay.

"It was Liam."

"Just answer this one question Liam what would you have done if Kyle had hurt himself?" He didn't answer, and I knew he couldn't. I gave him a hug and told him that I forgive him but that he wasn't off the hook but he has to go apologise to Kyle.

After that the bell had rung, I groaned in my head thinking that I didn't even get to eat lunch. I started making my way towards Advanced English. When I entered the door I was engulfed in a bear hug. Once I was released I saw who it was, it was Dylan, I squealed and hugged him again.

"I missed you Dylan! "I said to him while still hugging. "I missed you to Sky!" He said. "Well I hope you missed me Sky?" I heard a girl ask, I looked over Dylan shoulder to see Chloe. "Of course I missed you!" I yelled while releasing Dylan and running to her giving her a huge hug.

Then I remembered Dylan said he had a surprise for me, I turned to him "So where's the big surprise Dylan!" He started smiling like a huge goof ball. He walked over to Chloe and they held hands and looked at each other with so much passion and love.
