Page 124 of Surprise Mother Pucker

A crowd was starting to gather around us, watching her meltdown.

“This isn’t fair!” Lorna shouted.

Eli laughed, loud enough so everyone watching could hear. Storm handed Charlotte to Micha before stepping forward, so he also stood between me and Lorna.

“No,” Eli said. “What's not fair is you stalking my pack mate. What's not fair is that you planted drugs in a mother's bag because you didn’t like that Storm was giving her attention. You were so pathetically desperate for Storm that you were willing to ruin people’s lives for it, and it came back to bite you in the ass.”

His voice was so firm and strong… I liked it probably a little too much.

“Also, it’s kind of sad that you just can't get the message that, if it’s a choice between you and Kennedy, she’s going to win every time,” Storm said. “I don't know what sort of beer goggles I had on when I met you, but I would probably pick a rabid possum over you, at this point.”

The crowd tittered, and Lorna went bright red. “You’re only saying that because she's convinced you that baby's yours!”

Storm snorted. “That baby is mine. I very clearly remember making her. Has someone not had the birds and the bees talk with you yet?”

I was biting my lip so hard, I was convinced it was going to start bleeding. Storm seemed to be going for the humiliation angle, as opposed to anger, and it was working quite well, judging by the looks the crowd was giving Lorna.

A scream ripped out of Lorna’s chest, and she was looking more and more ragged with every second that passed. Did she honestly think this would help her? All it was doing was making her look like a complete idiot.

Peering around the side of Eli, I watched as two campus security officers approached Lorna. She shrugged away from them, but they muttered something quietly to her before grabbing her upper arm.

“Oh, yeah,” Eli said loudly, ensuring everyone heard him. “When you committed a felony by planting drugs on Kennedy, we decided to get a restraining order against you. A lawyer sent you all the paperwork, but I'm assuming you didn't bother to read it, did you?”

The crowd muttered among themselves, shooting Lorna judgmental looks.

Storm smirked. “I’m sure a few very nice police officers will want to have a conversation with you.”

“In fact, they're already on their way. That's who I was just calling,” Charlie said, brandishing his phone in the air. “Now, Lorna, would you kindly do us a favor and get the fuck out of our faces?”

“No!” she screamed. “She needs to apologize and say she lied!”

Storm snorted. “CCTV footage doesn’t lie…”

A scream ripped out of Lorna's chest, and she took another step toward me. But through the crowd, two police officers appeared, joining the campus security officers.

By now, I was certain that we had the attention of the entire arena. Instead of being embarrassed about it, though, I was simply a bit sad. I actually felt a bit of pity toward Lorna.

Then I remembered what she had done to me and how I was investigated because of her, and that pity swiftly vanished.

Watching her get handcuffed and dragged out of the arena was immensely satisfying. She screamed and clawed at the officers, but it was useless. Within a few seconds, she was out of sight, one officer staying to take Eli’s statement, as he was the head of our pack.

“Well, I don’t think she’ll come around again.” Storm chuckled as he gave me a side hug, watching Eli in the distance, talking to the police.

“I think, if she manages to make it back on campus, it would actually be quite an impressive feat.”

“Well, luckily, a few more months, and we should all be graduating and will be living off campus,” Charlie said.

I laughed. “Ah, adulthood is calling us.”

Storm looked between us with wide eyes. “Never thought I would be the one to say this, but guys, look at us. We have two babies. Adulthood has already hit us, full force.”

I hummed, kissing the top of Samuel’s head. “Maybe, but I don’t mind it all that much.”

Why didn’t we keep enough snacks in the house?
