~ADRIAN~ Not long after I sent Harriet scampering away, I stayed out on the front porch, ruminating over how messed up my situation already was. First of all, I wasn't supposed to let Harriett into this pack grounds after the history we had, knowing it was going to stir up wagging tongues. Not only would tongues start wagging, I might end up losing the connection I was already building with Aria. Damn! And I already did. The expression on Aria's face showed she had concluded that something was going on between Harriett and me. I let out a frustrated breath as I walked from one end of the railings to another. Weighing how messed up my situation was. The party would be ending in a few hours, but I had no zeal to rejoin it anymore. I would rather go upstairs and brood my messed up sit
