Penny writes down our plan for Operation Payback on paper. If that’s not a commitment, I don’t know what is.
Most of the ideas come from Reese and Penny. I just scrunch up my nose at most of them. Well, maybe all of them.
There are a few phases to our Operation Payback:
The first one is for me to look awesome and get the attention of un–mated boys at our school. Umm…I think that needs a lot of work, but maybe that can be done. Maybe. I don’t know.
The second part is for me to flirt with some guys to make him jealous. According to Reese, all werewolves, especially the Alphas are very possessive of their mates…even with the ones they’ve rejected. We’ll have that theory tested soon. I kinda doubt that he cares. He has the beautiful Mia and all the other girls anyway.
The third phase is for me to get a boyfriend since I don’t have a mate anyway.
The third phase would lead to phase four, and this is the toughest one for me…lose my V–card so that he can feel the pain he causes me when he’s with
someone else. I’m not sure if I’m on board with this one.
“It’s not like you’re saving yourself for your mate anymore,” argues Penny when I disagree with the fourth stage. Ouch!
“GenGen, you have to commit to this. Promise me you’re going through with this. He made you suffer, he’s gonna pay. He should feel at least a fraction of the pain he put you through. You’re gonna show him what he’s missing. You’re going to show him that you don’t need him. He needs you,” commands Reese spiritedly. “Doesn’t he know that an alpha needs his true mate to be really strong? This pack is going to the wolves…like literally.
“I’m getting an ulcer just thinking about him and Mia leading the pack.” Reese shudders.
The thought of the two of them together is less painful now. Maybe because Ihaven’t been around him in a while. I don’t think I’m good enough to be a luna, but I don’t know what I’ll do when the two of them become the alpha and luna of the pack.
“You think they’ll kick me and my family out of the pack once they become alpha and luna?”
“They can’t do that, can they?” asks Penny.
Yes, they can. The three of us sit in thoughtful silence for a few minutes before I suggest that we let our wolves out and go for a run.
It’s a great relief to let Ezra out. I feel light and feel almost normal again, I should let my wolf out more often.
Penny ends up spending the night at my house. Reese has a date with River later that night and has to leave. Both of Reese and Penny are coming for a
sleepover again
night.
After Reese left, Penny wants to watch Deadpool and drools over Ryan Reynolds. I’ve drooled over him like a thousand times, so I decided to butcher Elizabeth Browning’s beautiful sonnet, How do I Love Thee, changing the word love to reject and tape it on my wall.
How do I Reject Thee?
How do I reject thee? Let me count the ways.
I reject thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out ofsight
For the ends of being and ideal grace,
I reject thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle–light. I reject thee freely, as men strive for right. I reject thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I reject thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I reject thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I reject thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
Ishall but reject thee better after death.
Penny thinks I’m nuts. I think it’s funny in a sick, twisted and sad kinda way.
