Status Updates From Le Chant du Loup (Le Clan B...

I said, “How do you always know?”
Thomas didn’t even act surprised at the question. “You’re mine,” he said simply. “I’ll always know.”
“Because you’re the Alpha?”
“That too,” he said, eyes never leaving mine.
And I heard all the things he’d left unsaid
Nooooo don’t give me this sweet flashback and then have the old man die I will tweak

Have reached the point where joe turns 17, but it is hard to imagine him as such when he was still 12/13 before the 3 year time skip.

Will take a minute for me to adjust to thinking of him as an older teenager now.

“MOM ASKED, “Is this what you really want?”
I said, “Yes.”
“He’s seventeen, Ox.”
“And nothing will happen until he turns eighteen.” I didn’t want to talk about that part with her anymore. It buzzed along my skin until I felt flushed and hot. It was too much. The thought of touching. Of being touched.”

WTF

“Even more so when he ran a finger through the cream, licking it from his skin, never taking his eyes off of me.
Carter and Kelly had matching looks of disgust and horror on their faces.
“Stop it,” I hissed at him.
Joe cocked his head at me before leaning in and saying in a low voice, “Oh, Ox. I’m just getting started”
Oh lawt

im honestly loving the characters. hopefully the plot picks up soon.

also i dont care what people say about gordo. that guy is my bitch and i cant wait to read his book.

“He stayed for a week. I fucked him on the last three days he was in town. He left and I never saw him again.
Joe was fourteen and he didn’t talk to me for three weeks after that. Said he was busy. Finals were coming up and he had to study.
“Sure,” I said, trying not to worry at the strain in his voice. “You okay?”
“Yeah, Ox.” He sighed into the phone. “I’m okay.”

No manches😭

“Who was it?”
Smoke curled up around his face and he said, “Mark. Okay? It was Mark. I loved him. I loved him and he left and I stayed, and until I found you, I was lost in the dark. You brought me back, Ox. You brought me back and I can’t lose you. I can’t”

MARKS THE GUY FROM THE MOVIES

“Hi, Ox,” Jessie said. “It’s nice to meet you.” She grinned and it was a mischievous thing with a hint of teeth. My mouth went dry because her lips were pretty and so were her eyes, and I thought, Well, that’s just fine.
“You… ah. You too?”
“Maybe Ox can show you around school next week when you start,” Chris said.
I dropped a socket wrench on my foot
Awww

Tell everyone that Ox is under Bennett protection and if anyone so much as looks at him funny, I’ll break their arms. Don’t fuck with Ox.”
“You didn’t have to do that,” I said quietly as Carter and Kelly pulled me away. Carter had his arm around my shoulders and Kelly held my elbow. “They go away eventually.”
“Fuck that,” Carter snarled.
“They don’t touch you,” Kelly growled. “Ever
😏

“He closed his eyes. Took a deep breath. Let it out slowly. “Ox. I need you safe.”
“Why wouldn’t I be?” I didn’t understand.
“Shit,” Mark muttered. “He’s your tether.” He chuckled darkly. “Oh, the fucking irony.”
Gordo’s eyes flashed open. He tried to step around me, but I wouldn’t let him. “Take a walk, man,” I told him. “Cool off.”

SPILL THE BEANS BITCH

“It’s his choice, Gordo. He’s old enough to—”
“You leave him out of this. He is not part of this.”
“You know what happened to Joe. He’s helping Joe, Gordo. He’s fixing him.”
Gordo took a step back. “You fucking bastard. You can’t use—”
Whattt

“Mark was across the street. With Gordo. They were not happy to see each other.
“Motherfucker,” I muttered.
I pushed my way out of the booth. Kelly grabbed my arm and said, “No, Ox, you can’t just—” but I snarled at him something fierce and his eyes went wide and he stepped back.
“Joe, you stay here,” I snapped over my shoulder”

MAN IM LOST WHY GORDO NOT MESSING W THE CREW

“I went to bed and saw the lights on in the house at the end of the lane through my window. I wondered about them. The Bennetts.
Someone, my mother had said. Make someone very happy.
Not a her. But someone.
I closed my eyes and slept. I dreamt of tornadoes”

Mmm why couldn’t the other mc be older this feels strange

But… but—”
“Hey,” I said to Joe.
He looked up at me with frustrated eyes.
“It’s okay,” I said. “Listen to your dad.”
He sighed and nodded, squeezing my hand again. His shoelace came untied as he kicked the dandelion.
Bro I was getting the vibe and I just read the blurb and yup I’m knowin😭😭 idk how I’m feeling cuz he’s 10 and ox is 16 but they don’t get tg till later so idk guys

“They stood around me. Over me. Hiding me away should anyone stumble in and see the tears.
And Gordo put his forehead to mine and said, “You belong to us now.”
Something bloomed within me and I was warm. It was like the sun had burst in my chest and I felt more alive than I had in a long time.
Later, they helped me put on the shirt. It fit perfectly.”
I love this alr🥲

“I didn’t think he’d be interested in my mom. I never saw the man with Gordo ever again. And I never saw Gordo with anyone else. I wanted to ask him, but there was a tightness around his eyes that didn’t used to be there before and so I never did. People don’t like to be reminded of sad things.”
Man these betches saying he’s “dumb as an ox” whole time he’s just more emotionally intelligent

Going in blind so let’s manifest a good book shall we ppl🧘🏻‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️
