Game of Destiny – A Thrilling Tale of Power, Love & Fate

Gof Destiny Chapter 16-1 The week and a half both passed by quickly and seemed to stretch for an eternity. Laura turned out to be a natural at waiting. tables and she soaked in what, I had to teach her in no time. It eased my guilty conscience a little, as I knew I wouldn't be ditching Mrs Jones and CeCe with a heavier workload. My last shift in the diner was an evening shift and as soon as the last paying customer had eaten their dinner, Mis Jones announced the diner was closed. my surprise, most of the town then flooded in as CeCe announced it was my goodbye party. It was a wonderful evening and even got a little teary-eyed a couple of times. CeCe and Jessie insisted they would cover to helppack my car the following morning, even though I told them I would get help. In the end, I ran out of excuses and agreed they could cover. I don't think could have kept them away even if I had said no. It was their way of trying to assess if they felt 1 was safe with Finlay or not. It was sweet. 1 had a hard tsleeping, my stomach was filled with nervous butterflies and my wolf was giddy with excitement.

My alarm went off at seven am and 1 got up. I parked the bedding box I had saved for it and then headed down to the bakery. Mrs Andresen had promised to makebreakfast so I wouldn't have to dirty any of my kitchen things my last morning. I carried in the two sacks of flour 1 always helped her with and she offeredveral froshly made muffins and sdelicious coffee. As I was enjoying it and chit chatting with Mrs Andersen, I heard a car arrive, but it didn't sound like Finlay's truck. I headed out back to investigate. To my surprise, it wasn't just Finlay that had arrived. He was leaning against an unknown truck with Sam and Medow. Medow squealed when she sawand ran to givea tight hug. I bughed and hugged her back.

"I have missed you," Medow said.

"I have missed you too. But I didn't expect you to chere," I replied.

"I know, but when Finlay said he would get you, we thought..." Medow began but got interrupted by Sam clearing his throat. Okay, okay, I thought, it would be a nice thing if we cas well," she finished.

"I'm not objecting. But four people to moveseems a little much. At that moment, CeCe and Jessie cwalking. I introduced everyone to each other and watched as Finlay and Jessie gave each other a measured look. I rolled my eyes and both CeCe and Medow giggled.

"Okay, let's getpacked," I told everyone before it all turned into dick measuring contest. With six people and my very limited amount of boxes, it took less than half an hour to stow everything away in the Volvo and the truck.

"I'll be driving." Finlay toldand held out his hand for the key to my car. I hesitated.

"I usually don't let anyone else drive her," I told him.

"Her?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

*Yeah, Ahas an unhealthy attachment to that car," CeCe giggled "Hey,and Beula have been through a lot," I objected.

"Beula?" Medow asked.

"It suits her," I said and patted the sand-coloured roof. Everyone laughed.

"Are you going to tellI can't drive your car?" Finlay asked. The tone he used made it clear tohe was asking as my Alpha. Technically, he wasn't my Alpha yet. But it wouldn't be a good way to start life in his pack by pointing out technicalities like that.

"Of co course not," I said, tossing the keys to him.

"Thave packed doughnuts for everyone, and coffee," Mrs Andersen said. She was walking to us holding two large bags and balancing four large to-go cups. Sam and Finlay hurried to help her. "Thank you, that's sweet of you," she said.

"I have packed sburgers for you to eat on the way.

No fries, as they will just get soggy. But p plenty of stuffed potatoes," - Mrs 1/2 Chapter 16-1 Jones announced as she cwalking with two bags full of food, "Thank you," I said to both of the sisters. And they knew I wasn't ju thanking them for the food.

"It has been a pleasure, Amie," Mrs Jones said. As she handed the fold over to Finlay, the gavea hug and her sister did the sanse.

And get your shit together and ask her out before 1 have to sd someone to mess you up," I told him. He grinned at me. Then it was CeCe's turn. We bugged for a long while and promised to keep in touch and she promised to look out, for Jessie. I handed my apartment key back to Mrs Andersen and got into the passenger seat of the Valvo. Finlay was already sitting in the driver's seat.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"I will be," I told him.

"Ready to go home?" "More than ready," I agreed. It was the truth. Even though it was bittersweet to say goodbye to my old life, I was excited to start my new one. I waved to my friends as we drove off. The car smelled of red food and coffee. There were the worst scents to be surrounded by. We drove in silence for a while. I think Finlay lettake in the moment and I appreciated it.

"Want a doughnut?" 1 finally asked.

"I never turn down deep fried baked goods," he said. I smiled and fished one out of the bag and handed it to him. "Medow and aunt Matilda have been busy planning your bloodening ceremony. They talk you through it this afternoon. If you feel it's too much or you don't like something, just tell them. They won't be offended, he told me. I smiled as I munched on my own doughnut.

"I'm sure I will like it. When is it planned for?" "Tomorrow." He watchedfrom the corner of his eye as if he was afraid I was going to object.

"Sounds good. I'm looking forward to it." He relaxed and smiled.

"So is the pack, you should hear how hyped up Cadence is." Finlay toldwith a laugh. It felt nice to know the pack was looking forward to takingin.

"No objections from anyone or suspicions?" I asked.

"No. You made a superb impression on everyone," he said. He took a swipe out of his coffee and sighed happily. I had missed him, even if we had talked over the phone every day. But I had missed his calming aura! and clean, pine scent. I knew I needed to be careful. I couldn't let myself or my wolf didn't get too attached. Finlay would find his mate, and when that happened, I needed to be able to accept her as my Luna. I would just make sure we kept things on a friendly level. Around the halfway mark, Finlay announced he had mind linked with Sam and it was tto eat. We jarked at spicnic tables by the side of the road and took out the burgers and stuffed potatoes.

"I understand why you spent four days eating at that diner if this is the food they are serving," Sam told Finlay. We all laughed fel£my Wolf settling down. She recognised her new pack members, and she enjoyed the opportunity to reestablish the social connection we both had built during our three days at the pack. I noticed Finlay looking very pleased about something. "I can drive," I offered as we got back in the cars.

"Not happening," Finlay told me.

"What are you so pleased about?" I asked after we had been driving for a while.

"I like it when a plan comes together. I'm getting a new pack member, a strong one. You will help us build a stronger pack and I Enjoy your company. I think I have every right to feel pleased, he told me. I laughed at his honesty.

1/2 Chapter 16-2 "If you put it like that, I would say you are right," I agreed and relax back.

"You look pleased as well," he remarked, "I have got a wolf. I'm about to have a pack and a new exciting job, and I think I'm becoming friends with my Alpha. I say I have just as much to be pleased about," I told him. He chuckled.

"True. It's a good day," he agreed. We arrived at the pack house a couple of hours later. Finlay and I had spent the ad spent t ttalking and joking. So when I got out of the car, my legs felt a little stiff, but I was relaxed. I took a moment to scent my surroundings and was so occupied with taking in the moment that I missed the projectile at cflying at me.
