My family was too accepting for their own good. I wonder how Aunt Li will react when she realizes I brought a creature home and turned into one myself.
My mom can smell it but it seems she can't. More than that, I can't believe I actually followed Lucas's demands so easily. It's almost like he's got me wrapped around his finger instead of the other way around.
I hate it.
My phone buzzed and like clockwork I took my pill.
"What's that for?" Lucas's voice filled my ears.
I felt a surge of pettiness well up. "It's all caffeine," I lied.
Shit, I missed another chance to tell him. I'm so stupid.
"Are you busy this weekend?" I asked.
"I'm hunting with Melvin."
"Oh?"
"Why? What's wrong? I can tell you have something on your mind," he said.
"I don't... well I do. My family is insisting on meeting you." I mumbled.
"You really told them about us?" He looked surprised.
He literally made me, did he forget?
