I couldn’t believe what she was saying. Why would she say that? If she really looked at herself, she was the toy, the one they left behind. This was really sad, I think Olivia needed some help, because you didn’t just become the mean girl for no reason. I felt sad for her, if anything.

The door opened behind her, Maverick and Saint rushed in. I sighed; they’d get rid of her. This was Lexi’s special night. How did she even get pass the gate, Saint and Elijah were out there tonight. Did she sneak past them?

“What the fuck are you doing here? You are not welcome here, Olivia,” Maverick yelled at her. She smiled that fake smile of hers, I wanted to gag. What the hell did she think she was doing? That was Lexi’s mate, her fiancé, in shifter terms and she was trying to flirt with him.

“Saint invited me. He asked me to prom, and I accepted. I know how close you two are. I was hoping the three of us could go together.”

I held my breath as I looked at Saint, was this the truth? but his face never changed, he just gave me a blank stare. What happened to the Saint that let me in, just a little only a week ago, he was gone. I thought we had a moment. I thought I understood him, but I was wrong. He didn’t want to let his walls down, he wanted to hurt me. Well… he succeeded.

I didn’t want to cry in front of Olivia. I sucked in a breath, but the tears were welling my eyes, just one blink and they would hit the floor. Everything that could go wrong tonight, had. Boys suck. I ran up the stairs towards Lexi’s bedroom.

I needed to hide.
