(Cassie's POV)News traveled fast in our pack. Everyone came to express their sympathy, acting like my baby was dead. I walked out of the gym through the door of the pack house and everyone stopped to bow to me as I passed by. Not forgetting to add sympathetic looks. I moved into the living room and dropped on the couch, avoiding eye contact with everyone. The door leading to Jace's office was wide open. I saw him standing behind his desk flipping through some paperwork. Max and Mia left with Emily and Nicole back to London for their safety. Jude was nowhere to be found and André decided to stay back. Cassidy was in a wheelchair... but only temporarily. I glanced at Michael as he passed. He smiled sadly at me before walking into Jace's office. “Jace” he called when he entered. Jace looked up and raised his eyebrows. “Yeah?” he said impatiently. “We think we picked up a scent trail on your daughter.”I sat upright as Jace walked around the desk and stood right in front of Micha
(Cassie's POV)I groaned and got back under the covers.Covers?!I forced my eyes open and the bright light from the windows blinded me. I groaned again as my stomach let out a rumble and pulled myself to sit up.A lady dressed in white stood up and walked towards me with a wide smile plastered on her face. I rubbed my temple.“How're you feeling Ms. Adler?” she asked.“How long have I been asleep?”“Only two days” she replies. Only?! Which means all the other packs were gone by now. I eyed her before speaking up again. She's pretty. “Who are you?”“I'm Sharon. Doctor Elise asked me to stay with you till you wake up.” “Well, now I'm up so you can go. Thank you, but your service isn't needed anymore” I said firmly, groaning a little. “Sharon's not going anywhere” my dad's voice boomed from the doorway. “Mr. Adler” Sharon greeted and bowed down at him. “She's been recommended by Elise so she stays till you're better.”“Daddy, I don't need a nanny. I can take very good care of my
~Two months later(Cassie's POV) “Happy birthday...” I heard a voice whisper. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Jace smiling at me. I smiled back and he helped me up. “I better get going. Michael's freaking out already” he chuckled, kissing my temple. “Why would Michael be freaking out?” I asked, throwing my hair in a messy bun. Jace gave me a confused look. “What?” I asked, pinning the bun. “I just asked why Michael would be...”Then it hit me. How could I possibly forget?!“Oh my goodness! Today's the wedding?!” I cried out. “You forgot?” he asked. “What?! No” I lied. Jace chuckled. “What are you still doing here anyway? Go already, the best man can't be late” I said and pushed him out the door. I hurried to take a quick shower and decided to dress there so I don't waste time. Thankfully, my bump doesn't really show in the dress. I fixed my hair and put on some makeup before slipping on my shoes. I grabbed my purse and headed out to my parent's house. ~ ~ ~“Sorry I'm la
3 years later...(Cassie's POV) “Honey please stay still. You'll wrinkle your dress” I groaned as I tried to comb Mia's hair. “Mom, it hurts!” she whined and pulled away. “Well you didn't want to use the de-tangling shampoo, remember?” I scolded. “C'mon, we have to hurry before your sister wakes up.”I grabbed her hand. “Noooo, I don't wanna. It hurts!” she whined louder“Oh, Mia...”A loud cry came from my room and I knew the little one was awake. “Mom! There's no toilet paper!” Max cried out. I groaned and looked at Mia who sat there rubbing her head. I opened my mouth to scold her when Kristie walked in. “I've got it Mrs. Graham, don't worry,” she said, taking the brush from my hand. I sighed. “Go check up on the baby,” she told me. I nodded and gave her a grateful look before walking into the nursery. “Momma!” she let out when she saw me. “Mommy's here baby” I cooed and picked her up. I kissed her and wiped her tears. She buried her face in the crook of my neck and I g

Cassie sighed and entered her parent's room. She grabbed the clothes and threw them into the luggage. “Try folding them first, honey” her mother cautioned. “Why do you have to go anyway?” Cassie asked, clearly upset. Alba moved up to her ten-year-old daughter and gathered her into her arms. “But why London? Please don't go Mom” Cassie pleaded, her voice
Eight years later~Florida~ (Cassie's POV) I closed my locker to find Isabel standing there. “No,” I told her, knowing very well what she was about to propose. “Oh c'mon, Cassia. It's going to be fun!”I arched my eyebrow. “Don't call me that” I warned. “And I am not letting you borrow one of the dresses I made for some party.”“Please?” she begged giving me her puppy eyes. I really couldn't resist it. “Fine” I agreed. “Just this time.”“Yayy!” she exclaimed. “But you're buying me lunch” I announced and pulled her towards the cafeteria. “Aw!” she whined. We headed to the back table of the cafeteria where our friend group usually hung. Helen was the only one seated. “Hey!” we greeted and sat down. “Can I borrow forty bucks?” Elena asked, ignoring the greeting. I gave her a look. “Nevermind” she pouted, rolling her eyes. “Well, senior year isn't that exciting” Forrest sighed joining us. She made the cutest face when she was upset. “Well, I can't wait for it to end” Jay,
(Jace's POV) “Dude, you've gotta break up with her today” Michael Clearwater, my best friend, said to me. I kept thinking about the dreams I had been having. It was the same thing all over again. There was this girl; but not my girlfriend, Montana. This girl was much prettier and her presence was almost divine. I couldn't remember her face clearly but I couldn't forget those eyes which shone brightly like the stars and her long golden... “Jace! Are you even listening to me, man?” Michael chuckled; his voice ripping through my thoughts. I nodded. “So where is it gonna be?” he asked. “How about you take her to dinner, then end it with her?”I was about to refuse the idea of dinner when I spotted her coming. Micheal did too and made a face. “I'll see you later,” he said to me and left the two of us alone. “What did he want?” Montana asked. I chuckled. “He's my best friend Mo. After tonight, he's going to be my Beta. I don't think he needs any reason to talk to me.”She flipped
(Cassie's POV)I closed the door behind me and leaned against it for a while. Today was the worst day. I pulled myself inside and slowly settled into the couch. “Is that you Cassandra?” I heard my grandmother ask.“Yes Abuela” I answered. “I have a lot of homework so I'll be in my room okay?” I added and locked the front door before heading upstairs. I locked my bedroom door and flung myself down on the bed. I eyed my sewing machine and sighed. I had to find a day to clean up my room. My closet wasn't big enough to fit all the new clothes I was making.I felt a pee sting and began to slip off my shoes when my phone began to ring. I answered it. “Unlock the door,” she said. “I'm not going, Isabel. That wasn't the deal.”She's quiet for a while. “Fine!”Then she hung up. I rolled my eyes and made my way to the bathroom to pee. Walking back out, I found her going through my clothes. “Black or yellow?” she asked, holding out two dresses. “How'd you get in?” I asked.“The window.
