CHAPTER 28.
Cassy wasn’t at breakfast and she wasn’t answering my texts or calls so I went over to her house to make sure she was fine. I drove up to her house and parked the car. I hadn’t seen it before but it was darling and much bigger than I had expected. It was a quaint two-story house with a front side porch and a back yard that was fenced in. I knocked on the door and her father, I assumed, opened up.
“Hi there, how can I help you?” He asked with a bright smile.
“Hi, sir, I’m Gabby, a friend of Cassy’s. I was wondering if she’s here
“Gabby? Oh dear, you’re the Luna, where are my manners-” he became a little stres fully and inviting me in.
“-it’s a pleasure to meet you. Please, come in,” he said and shook my hand.
“Oh no that’s okay, I’m just looking for Cassy,” I said.
and reaghed out his hand, opening the door
“She’s at work, she will be back in about an hour but please, come in, I’ll make us some coffee.” I couldnust turn around and leave, he looked so hopeful standing there.
“Thank you,” I said and walked inside.
It was a small hall with family pictures hanging on the walls.
The stairs were on the right and up on the wall beside it they had even more pictures and right ahead it led to the kitchen and a big open-floor living room.
We sat down around the dining room table and Cassy’s dad made coffee for us. I heard someone descending the stairs and a warm womanly tone laughing as she came down.
“Honey, the boys will be home soon so what do you want for dinner?” She asked and stopped in the doorframe when she saw me.
“Hi, there,” she said and smiled. She was shocked and didn’t hide it as she laughed a little for herself and came up to me.
“Hi, I’m Gabriella, a friend of Cassy’s,” I said as I stood up and reached out my hand. Her mouth took on an O’shape and her eyes
widened a fraction.
“Luna, it’s a pleasure to meet you,” she said and cupped my hand with both of her own.
“Please, call me Gabby,” She tilted her head to the side and smiled softly.
“Well, Gabby, Cassy will be home soon but we’re so glad to finally meet you! She has told us so n
so much about you,”
We sat and talked and they told me about their family, showed me pictures of Cassy as a kid and we had drunk two cups of coffee each before Cassy came home. I had been having such a great time that the hours flew by and then when I heard the door opening her mom flew up from the chair.
“Hey, honey! Look who’s here,” she said and Cassy walked into the ditchen.
“Hi!” She said and hugged me.
“So sorry I didn’t tell you about my shift to
today, it was a last-minute thing and I jumped on it,” she s

“No problem, I’m glad it happened, I got to meet your parents,” Cassy smiled lovingly when she looked at her parents sitting around
but the happy smile soon turned into a scowl when the door opened and two boys started yelling as they ran inside.

“He broke it!”
“No,
you broke it!” They started wrestling each other and falling to the ground.
“Cut it out you little punks!” Cassy said and pulled them apart.
“Who’s this?” One of them asked and flipped back his blonde hair. They couldn’t have been older than twelve but they were certainly twins, they looked identical except for their shirts. It was the same shirt but one was blue and one was red.
“I’m Gabby,” I said and smiled at them.
“She’s our packs Luna, remember?” Their mother said sternly.
“Oh yeah, you’re Aiden’s other girlfriend!” One of the boys said.
“Dalton!” His mother scolded
ed and Cassy slapped him on the back of his head.
“Ouch, what?!” He said and held the spot where she had slapped.
I admit that Dalton’s comment earlier bothered me and sent a large rock down into the pit of my stomach.
Regardless of that I spent the rest of the day at Cassy’s house. We ate dinner and then sat all together watching a movie. Me and Cassy went up to her room afterward and spent the rest of the night there.
“I’m sorry about what Dalton said by the way,”
“Don’t be, I’m betting it’s what everyone is thinking anyways,”
Regardless, it wasn’t cool of him to say that. Someone yelled downstairs and we heard loud footsteps before a crashing sound.
“Denny!” Cassy’s mom shouted downstairs.
“They get on my nerves constantly,” Cassy said and rolled her eyes.
“I get that, I have three of them,” I said and smirked..
“Right,” She said and shook her head.
I texted Aiden to let him know that I was spending the night wit
with Cassy.
‘No, get back”
“Why?”
‘becuase you’re sleeping here’
I’ll see you tomorrow, we’ve had a few good weeks, don’t ruin it’
‘Fine, but tomorrow you’re mine”
A giddy feeling spread through me at the last text. You’re mine.
I and Cassy talked for the rest of the night and it was the best, and first, girls’ night I had ever had in my life. How could I have been so lucky to have found a friend like her?

CHAPTER 28.
The next week I spent everf more time with Aiden.
We went fishing, he showed me through the woods, and I watched his wolf run around and hunt.
He taught me to fight and we went swimming.
It had been surreal and so amazing. He and Cassy were getting along better as well, which was a dealbreaker for me, and she had begun hanging out with us. Aiden had been on his best behavior around her, letting her in again without that torn look in his eyes.
The only problem as I could see it was Aiden’s friends whom he’d reglected lately but i didn’t care. I ignored the glares and mocking which only occurred when Aiden wasn’t around anyways.
I was in the game room with Cassy and we were playing pool. It was like Dejt
Vi, my phone rang and Edmund’s name lit up on the
“Hey!” I squealed with a smile plastered on my face.
“Hey, you sound happy.” he said and I giggled.
“I am, How are you?” I asked and walked over to the couch.
“Well, you’re about to be even happier” He said and then paused for a second.
The plan is ready, everything has been put in place for your new life.” I gulped, the smile disappeared
od and I sat down on the couch.
“You’re finally gonna
nna get to taste freedom, sis,” I looked up and locked eyes with Cassy. The pool cue slipped from her fingers and her eyes fell, with sadness dripping in their depths.
