Chapter 105: Reunion, Part 2

(Paige POV)

When we finally made it back to Blue Moon, my emotions were a muddled mess:

—I was relieved to be back.

—I was happy to be alive and unharmed.

—I felt both sad and betrayed about everything involving my sister.

—I was horrified about having watched my sister be murdered in front of me.

—I was scared and nervous to see Jason again, after having rejected him for the second time less than a week ago.

—I was still upset with Jason for having knocked up my best friend.

—I was still in shock that Granny Apple played a role in Sarah getting pregnant.

Complicating my mess of emotions even more was the reality that I was hungry, dehydrated, and exhausted.

When I saw Aaron race from the packhouse to greet Cassie, my heart felt happy for the two of them… and a little jealous too. I could not help but wonder if Jason and I would ever get to that point, or if my happiness —like that of Aaron and Cassie— would be found in the arms of a second chance mate.
