Chapter 0288


    “I can’t wait to go back to thepound, I want to train and run hard, my body needs it. I feel so


    lazy right now.” I whine at Mina in our shared room of the rental property.


    We just got back from shopping and meeting up for dinner with some other college freshman we


    met a couple weeks ago. We have managed to keep people friendly but at a distance. We don’t go


    to people’s houses and they don’te to ours. Having an overprotective ‘uncle’ is doing wonders


    to keep a certain level of separation.


    “I can’t wait to go back and use the hot tub. My feet are killing me.”


    “You were the idiot who chose to wear heels to the mall.” I scoff at her, but she smiles right back.


    “Yeah, but it got their attention, didn’t it?”


    I roll my eyes. “Of course it did, your legs look a mile long with them on and that short skirt. I still


    can’t force myself to wear those. These shorts are bad enough, there’s barely enough material to


    cover my hooha.”


    “What are you talking about? You wear skimpier stuff to training. Those shorts are nothing.”


    “My training gear isn’t going to intrigue anybody, we all wear the same stuff, it’s a uniform. This stuff


    we wear to the mall and everywhere else is a choice I would not normally make on my own.”


    “Yeah, but you have to admit, they look good on you. You have this tiny, totally ripped body that you


    only show off during training. You really need to show it off more, you work too hard to hide it under


    the baggy crap you like to lounge in. Have your boys seen you in ‘normal’ clothes?” She air quotes


    at me.


    “They have seen me in lots of stuff. I had to dress up for a couple things for Luna Ava, they’ve seen


    me in that kind of stuff.”


    “But they haven’t seen you recently, have they? I mean you haven’t had the chance to message


    them while we have been on assignment. And I know you only sent the one letter after they all


    wrote you separately. You have put on some weight and gotten more definition since I met you. I’m


    sure you will lookpletely different to them.” She waggles her eyebrows at me. “I can’t wait for


    them to see you all mmed up the way Luna Queen Anne does. I bet they will all fall over from


    heart attacks.” She’sughing at the prospect now.


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    She’s had more than a couple conversations with Sierra while we have been at school and


    apparently Sierra has some insight to my interactions with the guys she didn’t even bother to tell


    me. Now Mina likes to give me a hard time the way she does at their supposed infatuation.


    “Okay! Stop! You’re making it weird now. They are my brother and friends. None of them see me as


    more than a little sister. And that is still only a year in the making, before that, I was nothing to


    them.”


    “All the more reason to learn to unt it tastefully. Let them know what they are missing.” She


    Laughs again as I throw a pillow at her.


    “Okay, for real, enough now. I need to finish this assignment. You may not care about your grades,


    but mine can’t slip. That is one of the stiptions of my being here. I have to stay ahead, no matter


    how distracting you are.”
