Not Ready For My Mate novel Chapter 87

"Theo! Hurry up!" I hear Sky yell out from her seat. As I look over everyone I notice Beau at the far end, making small talk with Uncle Dylan and Aunt Chloe. He sees me and offers me a small smile. I smile back at him then turn my attention back to Callie. She's ranting about some guy who's been bothering her. I try to listen but once I see Theo enter the room my attention is only on him.

He greets everyone then walks over to me but not before whispering something to Beau. Beau nods then turns back to Aunt Chloe. Theo walks over to me and greets me by placing a kiss on my head. I blush, realising everyone had just seen that, well almost everyone.

As I look over at Callie I see her staring at Adrian. Maybe they'll be mates, Callie's birthday is in a few days.

"Are you ready for our date tonight?" That seems to wake Callie up because next thing I know I'm being dragged to the bathroom, ordered to get ready, then dragged out the house, heading for the mall.

I'm in trouble.

Theo/Gage's POV

After Callie had dragged Izzy off, we finished our breakfast then motioned for Beau to follow us. We had to speak to him before he left. Walking outisde the house we walk through the woods, wanting to have privacy. We eventually reach a spot that we see fit. We turn to face him and see a sad expression on his face.

"Before you speak Theo, I just wanted to say I'm sorry. I'm sorry for attacking you. I'm sorry for messing with your life, but I'm mostly sorry about ever lifting a hand to Izzy. You're a very lucky guy, and I hope you'll treat her the proper way, the way I was supposed treat her." By the end of his speech, tears are falling and he's on his knees. We sigh and kneel down in front of him. We place our hands on his shoulders.

"Beau, stop crying. I just wanted to say thank you." His head snaps up and he looks at us in shock and confusion.

"W-What? Why?"

"If it weren't for you I would have never met Izzy. Now don't get me wrong by saying this, if you hadn't hurt her I wouldn't have gotten the chance to be with her. That doesn't mean that I will ever forgive you for what you did to her, but I still want to say thank you and that I'm sure you'll find someone out there for you. I did." He sighs out and suddenly pulls us into his embrace. We're shocked at first but then embrace him as well. After our hug we get up and head back to the house.

"So what you planning for your guys' date?" Beau suddenly ask us as we walk. We sigh and run a hand through our hair.

"Callie, could you please stay upstairs with Izzy. I don't want her to know what I have planned." We ask her as we carry Izzy upstairs to our room. She nods her head and follows closely behind us. Time for me to question her.

"So Callie, I wanted to speak to you as well."

"About what?" She asks us, setting her snacks on the bed before climbing on it.

"Adrian." She immediately stiffens but then calms down.

"I don't know what you're talking about." We roll our eyes but sigh, knowing we won't get anything out of her.

"Just be careful. Okay Sis?" She nods her head in understanding. We smile and leave the room, heading downstairs. Now that we know that Izzy will be distracted we can finally put this plan into action.
