Novel1Chapter 0625 Nina Enzo had left last night to rally our pack, and although the distance between realms madenervous, I had been too busy helping with the preparations for the Moon Goddess Festival gala to think much about it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPolly and I were sitting in the kitchen, stringing together handmade garlands for the party. It felt a little bit like my mother had really just set us up here to forceto make a friend, but I didn't mind. Polly was sweet, and she was good company.
Polly, with her bright blue eyes and infectious enthusiasm, looked up from the ribbon she was tying and smiled at me. "Nina," she said, her voice filled with curiosity, "tellmore about you and Enzo. You two seem so perfect together." I couldn't help but laugh. "Enzo and I have been married for a little while now," I said. "He's my fated mate. We've got a baby on the way, actually." Polly's eyes lit up with excitement as she reached for another ribbon. "That's so cool," she said. "You're so lucky to have found your fated mate, and at such a young age, too." I nodded, choosing not to elaborate on the entire convoluted history betweenand Enzo-how I hadn't even known I was a werewolf, and yet I somehow managed to find him nonetheless.
"Yeah," I said with a smile. "It's been great. We're both really lucky." Polly sighed dreamily, her gaze distant for a moment. "I hope to find my fated mate someday," she said softly, a wistful look in her eyes. "Someone who will loveunconditionally and be there forno matter what." "How old are you, Polly?" I found myself asking.
"I just turned nineteen," she replied.

Polly's face lit up, and she nodded enthusiastically. "I will," she said. "My mom didn't meet my dad, who's her fated mate, until they were in their thirties." "See?" I said. "You've got time." Polly and I continued chatting as we finished up the garlands. But, eventually, with all of the hustle and bustle in the house, I wound up getting a bit overwhelmed. It seemed as though my help was no longer needed once the garlands were finished, and so I stepped outside to see if I could find that offering yet.
But as I stepped out into the gardens, something caught my eye. It was Tyler, sitting on a bench with his head in his hands. Again.
I approached him, concern evident in my voice. "Hey, Ty, what's going on?" I asked, crouching down beside, him. Tyler looked up his usually bright eyes filled with a sense of sadness. "Nina," he said, his voice tinged with a hint of melancholy, "Angie and I broke up after all. She said she fell in love with that other guy. So I guess we're done."
My heart went out to him. The timing couldn't have been worse, with the Moon Goddess Festival just around the comer "I'm solsorry, Tyler," I said, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. "That's really tough, especially with the party coming up. I'm sure you were looking forward to going with her." He sighed, his shoulders slumping. "Yeah," he replied. "I was angry at first, but... Now I'm just sad. This sucks."
I knew how much he had cared about his relationship, and I wished there was something I could go to cheer him up. And then an idea struck me. "Hey," I said, a mischievous grin forming on my face, "how about we go for a little adventure? It might help take your mind off of things." Tyler's eyes widened with curiosity. "Adventure? What do you mean?" I leaned in closer and whispered, "Follow me, but don't let mom see us. I've got an idea."
