“I don’t want to listen, Nate. If you wanted to fuck someone else, you could have told me we were over, not just ignore me like some high school brat!”
“What about you then? You’re the only one who gets to play around with other guys, and I have to just wait?”
I stop, completely lost. What the hell is he talking about? I made it clear that I wasn’t sleeping with anybody else!
“Excuse me?”
He suddenly rolls his eyes and takes out his phone, showing me a picture. What the–? Why the hell does he have a picture of me and Levi kissing?
“What is this then?” he asks, furious. “I thought things were over with your ex? It doesn’t seem like it!”
“That’s not Diego, you big idiot, that’s Levi, Daniel’s brother!”
Nathaniel shakes his head in disbelief. I let out a big sigh. Why am I the one justifying myself right now? I’m not the one with another woman waiting upstairs in a fucking sexy black dress!
“So, even your best friend’s brother, now?”’
Moon Goddess, if I wasn’t repressing myself and my wolf right now I would slap him! What’s that look he’s giving me?
“I never slept with Levi, what the hell are you thinking, he’s like a brother to me!”
“That didn’t prevent you from kissing him!”
“That wasn’t real, Nate! Levi is passing as my boyfriend so that Diego would leave me alone!”
I can see the shock on his face. Yeah, I guess he didn’t expect that. That was a shitty plan, but the only one that worked. Whether Diego believed it or not, he backed off a little when Levi was around.
“Why would you do that?”
“Because Diego is a fucking psycho, and that was the only idea I had for him to back off, Nate!”
“So you picked your best friend’s brother? And he believed it?”
“Yes, we have been pretending for a week and that’s working, for now,” I sigh, exhausted by this fight.
“So, there’s nothing between you and that guy, Levi?”
“Of course not…”
“He doesn’t like you?”
I freeze. Oh, damn it. If only I had ignored that question. Nathaniel looks like he is about to vomit, and takes one more look at the picture.
“So, you’re pretending to go out with a guy who is in love with you?”
“Stop that, Nathaniel. Levi knows perfectly well that I don’t love him back.”
“Certainly. Your best friend’s brother, you’re definitely not leading him on by kissing him and pretending to–”
“Levi knows I don’t have any feelings for him, Nate! Enough! Moreover, he knows I’m sleeping with you, okay?”
“You said only Daniel and Boyan knew!”
“Well, now Levi knows too, okay? He overheard Daniel and I, earlier this summer! So yes, Levi knows I’m sleeping with you and he’s covering up for me because guess what? He’s my only believable boyfriend!”
“You’re happily kissing him and going out with him when I’m not available, I guess,” growls Nate.
Moon Goddess, why is he the one having a jealousy tantrum now? I didn’t come here to explain myself!
