After a long pause, he finally said, "Alright." My absence had pushed him to the brink. He wanted to bring me back more than anything. But by then, I was already on a cruise ship. I left the Snowfang Pack and headed back to my hometown, the Blaire Pack instead. Returning to familiar territory lifted my spirits.

When we opened the front door, there was no one in the living room. Then, we heard the sounds of someone moaning coming from Gabriel and Rhonda's room.

Come back anyway. I read it. I put the phone down and looked at the window. I looked at my mother. I looked at my father. I can't believe I'm going back to Luca. --- I went upstairs. I picked up the notebook from the windowsill and sat on the floor with my back against the bed and opened it to the first page with his name on it. I read it all the way through. The question I'd written underneath. The answer. The I haven't. The he's already moving. Everything added in the weeks after in hotel rooms and exile days and quiet evenings with the garden outside.

"I can work anywhere. And besides, I’ve always wanted to go back for a visit. We could make a fresh start. You’d have me, and I’d have your back. No matter what." Her words touched something deep inside me. For the first time, the thought of going back didn’t seem quite so terrifying. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad if I had Tessa by my side.

Stacy was still talking excitedly about investors, new opportunities, and international growth. I wasn’t listening anymore. All I could hear was the echo of memories I had buried years ago. I slowly closed the file. “No.” Stacy blinked. “…No?” “I’m not going back to New York.” Her smile disappeared. “But Elena… this could change everything.” I looked out of the window, my heart suddenly feeling much heavier than it had only moments before. “I’m not giving it another chance ,” I whispered. “And I promised myself I would never go back.”
