Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 355

Chapter 355

Brandon stared down at me for a few moments before a soff smile broke out on his face. If I knew him less, or was a little stupider, I might have fallen for that face. I might have given up everything in my last like to see him smile at me like this. But this time, this time, I wanted to punch him in his stupid, smirking mouth.

“Have you considered it?” His voice sounding hopeful. Too hopeful.

I smiled softly and looked away. “I have. I still want to meet my mate.” I watched his fate fall. “But…” I looked back and leaned in. “I would be open to spending more time with you to see if we are compatible.”

“But if you are waiting for your mate…” He pouted.

I shrugged. “I’m open to possibilities. I don’t know how long mates will take. Never mind second chance, mates.”

His eyes snapped to mine. “A second chance, mate?”

I nodded and looked away. “I haven’t told anyone. But when I turned eighteen, I met my mate.” I looked away and allowed my face to fall. I remembered my first life. I remembered the pain, and I allowed my tears to spring to my

eyes.

“He rejected you?”

Hooked up and nodded. Let him believe that the man rejected me. “I don’t even know why. I didn’t even get to

speak with him.” I looked down at my hands. “He was passing by my father’s pack and he rejected me and moved on.”

He leveled me with a look. “Yes. Yes, I do.”

I let my face fall, and then I nodded. “I guess you do.” There were footsteps behind us and hen a voice cleared. We both startle. I turned to face Vince and I smiled. “Alpha Vince. We were just about to come meet you.” 2

Vince looked between Brandon and I. “It’s okay. I thought there was something holding you up.” I shook my head and stepped away from Brandon.

He followed. “Amy was just explaining the issue she had with Shannon yesterday.” His voice was warm, could hear the edge.

“Issue?” Vince turned and started down the hallway. He looked back. “I’ll show you to your office and your supervisor. Hopefully, you two will get along and you can bring some fresh blood into our security.” I just smiled and nodded. But Vince was already focused back on Brandon “Issue?”

Brandon stepped up next to me and nodded to his dad. “Shannon was upset about the job offer you gave to Amy, and demanded she stay away from me.” I nodded.

“I understand she is the daughter of your beta, but she has grown really attached to Brandon. She was screaming about how he was supposed to be hers, and that I needed to stay away from him. She demanded I turn down the job.” I looked down at my hands. “If this sis too much, then I will. I don’t want there to be any more fighting at my house. My mom and Morgan already have issues, and I don’t want them to divorce.”

Vince stumbled over his feet. “Divorce?” He looked back at me, and I nodded. “There’s no way your mom is actually considering a divorce.”

I sighed. “I know. It’s hard to believe. Her and Morgan have been so strong for so long, but he really messed up the
