Chapter 118 Liliana

• The memorial service had been so touching, and I imagine the family and friends of Beta Trent were more than honored that so many people had turned up to honor him. It was always so difficult to say goodbye to a loved one, and we all held a soft spot for Uncle Trent. He had played a big part in all of my friends’ lives as we had grown up because of Aunt Lilah, and I knew I would miss him terribly.
• Now I could see my friends and family spreading around to celebrate his life in the best way they knew how, usually to drink and enjoy one another’s company. I had hoped to find a moment to speak to my Dad today, after such a hectic time recently at university, I had barely had a moment to think. I literally returned home to sleep and that felt like all. But, I knew I had to broach the subject of my fated mate. It was time my parents knew, and I was aware of that. They would be disappointed in me for hiding it if I kept it secret for much longer.
• Not a moment had passed since I discovered Alexis was my mate that we had not been together. Either side by side, in class, spending time together after class, or on the phone once leaving one another. I realized now that any feelings I had for Luka had been nothing but what I guess they call puppy love. He was nothing compared to Alexis, and despite his persistence, bordering on almost harassment, nothing would make me consider returning to him.
