(Cassie's POV) “Thank you,” Charisma said when the last flower was out the door. “Okay, so I knew my cousin was crazy but not like this” Summer confessed. “Telling you he's in love with you when he knows you're Jace's mate?”“I actually like him for you better than pretty boy” Isabel chuckled. “Ohh, pretty boy; that's a good one” Charisma joined in. “Cut it out you two” Summer said. “Are you okay Cassandra?”I opened my eyes. “Yeah, he just caught me off guard, that's all.”“Well, it isn't my favorite sister!” I heard José call out. “She's your only sister,” Isabel said. I sat up from the couch with a smile that quickly faded away. The girl was with him again. José slipped beside me and pulled me into a hug. “Does she always have to come with you?” I murmured into his chest. “Be nice” he replied to me. I frowned. “Me? She's the one who's been throwing me dirty looks ever since she met me.”“You know I'm standing right here, right?” she asked. I rolled my eyes. José gave me
They paced up and down the living room. “Did you find her?” Michelle asked when her son returned. Jace shook his head. “Someone has to go tell Ava” she sighed and walked out the door. “I'll come with you” Jace said walking behind. ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ ✽ “What do mean my daughter's gone?” Ava asked, taking off her garden gloves.“Something's wrong with her” Jace said.“No one is going to stop me from dealing with her when I find her!” Morgan screamed, marching towards the house. Ava turned and frowned at her daughter. “You went swimming with your clothes on?”“No, that stupid little girl tried to freeze me to death and I am definitely going to kill her when she gets back!” Montana exclaimed. “She what?” Fred asked.Michelle nodded. “It's true, we were all there” she said.“We think it's her wolf” Jace sighed, treading his hands through his hair in frustration. “We need to find her before she seriously hurts someone.”Montana scoffed. “I was seriously hurt!” she cr
(Cassie's POV) I turned, only to have strong arms wrap around my waist. A silly smile broke on my face and I sighed happily. Then reality hit me and I snapped my eyes open. I quickly sat up and noticed I'm in Jace's shirt. I turned to the bare chested person beside me and it was him.“Oh no, no, no, no, no!” I cried in a tiny voice, my hands automatically flying to my lower body. I heard a chuckle beside me. “Don't worry; I didn't take it that far” Jace smirked. “What happened?” I asked, trying not to panic. All I remembered was kissing Jace back. Then Michael interrupted us and we got back to the house when Elise said he was going to be fine. And I agreed to share the bed just to keep an eye on him. Jace smiled. “You got a little feverish last night. So my mom—”I groaned with relief and punched his arm. “Ow?” he chuckled. “Next time I'm aiming for your jaw” I warned. He smirked. “I know something else I could do with my jaw.”I held back the smile threatening to break ou
(Jace's POV) I had absolutely no idea what she was talking about. She wouldn't listen to anything I had to say. She just kept glaring at me and just avoided me afterwards. (Cassie's POV) “Cassandra listen to me!” he stopped me in the hallway for the umpteenth time. “I thought I asked you to leave me alone Jace!” I snap. He stared down at me. Shit! Why the hell was I so small?! He gave me yet another confused reason and I could tell he was starting to ran out of patience with me. “What do you think of yourself huh Jace?” I asked, jabbing at his chest with my index finger. “You have absolutely no right to—”Before I could finish that sentence, I was hoisted up and over his shoulder. My face was against his back causing my hair to fall all over my face and my butt was in the air over his shoulder. I heard the onlookers start to laugh and take pictures as he began to walk off with me. “What the hell do you think you're doing Jace?!” I screamed at him. “Put me down right this ins
Her alarm clock went off and she grumbled in bed, struggling to get up. “Wake up lazy ass” Jace chuckled, gently shaking her. “It's Saturday. Can't I sleep it just a little, mom?” she whined. “Mom?” Jace chuckled. Cassandra chuckled along and opened her eyes. They'd been all over each other for weeks now and Cassandra was completely and all consumed with Jace Graham. “I wasn't aware you now considered me your mother” he whispered. “Mm, you're not” she whispered back, biting her lip. “You're my very sexy boyfriend.”He loved the way her eyes sparkled whenever she called him her boyfriend. “And you are my way sexier girlfriend” he grinned wickedly, leaning down to give her a long, slow, wet kiss.He pulled away and pressed a quick kiss to her temple and she smiled. “Now get your big booty up” he laughed and yanked the covers off her body. She got up and went straight into the shower. The lather felt so good on her body. She finished up quickly and grabbed her black jumpsuit, sl
(Cassie's POV) Ethan dropped me off at home. “Thanks,” I said in a rush and jumped out of the car. “Wait, you left your purse!” I heard him call after me. I didn't have time to turn back. I got to the living room and no one was there. “You guys!” I cried. “Up here” I heard Isabel cry out. I looked up to find her standing on the stairs. I bolted up. “What's happened?” I asked in anticipation. “It's no big deal, Cass, relax,” Isabel said calmly. “Jace is dying!” Rose sobbed. My heart skipped a beat. “What?” I whispered. “No don't worry about it,” Michelle said rubbing my shoulders. “I thought I asked you to stay with the girls, Freda” Michelle scolded the nanny as she calmed Rose down. Dave put a hand on my shoulder. “Elise is in there with him, don't worry” he whispered to me. I took in deep breaths and tried to calm down. But I thought werewolves couldn't get sick.Elise walked out. “Is my brother okay?” Summer asked, her voice breaking. “Yes, Summer. He's fine” she
The days went by and Jace had only improved slightly. He didn't need that much help moving around now. In the mornings, Cassandra would do what she could then Michelle would take over while she went to school. After school, she'd come straight home to Jace simultaneously continuing working on the wedding dress for Abigail while taking care of Jace. It took her a while, but she was finally used to it. And now that she'd made the wedding dress and all six bridesmaids' dresses and flower girl dresses, she could relax a little. It was the weekend and Cassandra was asleep on the couch downstairs. Jace had kept her up all night long with his needs. Could she complain? Yes, she was drained but... the things we do for love aye? A buzzing sound woke her up and she lifted her head in confusion. Her eyes were still closed. The buzzing ceased after a few seconds and she dropped back into the couch. She started to drift slowly back to sleep when the buzzing noise came back again; even fiercer t
(Jace's POV) It had been almost four hours since I went back to sleep and Cassandra left to go try on the dresses for the wedding. I woke up and she wasn't still back. “How can she leave us alone for this long?” my wolf growled. “How about we have a little fun while we wait?” I smirked, grabbing my phone. I dialed a few numbers and asked for a favor from each one of them. “This is going to be fun” I chuckled and sat back to watch the show. (Cassie's POV) Summer got Ruby and Rose so they could try on their dresses. “You like it?” I asked the twins. Rose nodded and smiled brightly up at me. “And the flowers I get to put in my hair. Thank you Cass” she said. “I don't,” Ruby said with a frown. I turned to her. “You don't?” I asked nervously. “It could use a little more sparkle” she sighed. I scratched my head.“Well okay. I'll just take out the bodice and get a new—”“Relax. I love it!” she giggled. I let out a sigh and laughed along. Ruby jumped around. “Look at these sh
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
~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
(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
(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 stood in the doorway of the bedroom and stared at him in awe. He was so adorable when he was sleeping. Max looked so much like him. I smiled to myself as a mischievous grin appeared on my face. “Jace!” I screamed as I jumped on top of his sleeping.He grabbed me and threw me underneath him, his hand over my mouth. I waved. “Really?” he chuckled and climbed off me. I laughed. “I'm sorry, it's just that you looked so good sleeping, I just had to”. He looked down at me. “I'm sorry!” I cried playfully and hugged him. “Don't be mad, please?” I said in a tiny voice and pecked his cheek. He grinned. “You're weird as shit,” he said between laughs and I nodded in agreement. He pulled me in for a hug. “I love you” I breathed in his chest as he kissed my forehead. “Me more” he replied. “Go take a shower,” I said and let him go. (Jace's POV) Once I was done showering, I called out to Cassandra to hand me a towel which she did. I stepped out in my boxers and saw her
She grabbed a dress and tried it on. Standing in front of the mirror, tilted her head.“No,” she said and took it off.She tried on another dress.“No!” she screamed and dropped on the bed.Alec rolled his eyes and continued to cut through the paper.“I have nothing to wear for tonight! Alec help me” she pleaded.He ignored her and continued to cut the paper.“Give my back my scissors!” she said and took back her scissors.“What do you want me to do?” he asked with a sigh. “What is the matter with you?”“I'll tell you. I don't like how you treat Cassandra. She's our sister for Pete's sake! And I don't like you hanging around with Blair. She's changing you; you're changing. You're not the big sister I looked up to and admired anymore. You're a spoilt little brat and I can't live with you anymore” he said and grabbed his pillow. “What are you doing?” Cassidy asked. “Alec, I am speaking to you!”“I'm going to Cassandra's. I don't wanna be roommates anymore.”Cassidy's face fell.“I'll c
(Cassie's POV)“What is the matter with both of you?!” the old woman asked. “Look, I don't know why you're screaming but it's not good for you,” I tell her.“I don't wanna hear another word from you”.She turned when the door closed. “How's she now?” she asked Elise.Elise sighed.“What really happened, Cassandra?” Elise asked me.I remained quiet and got back to flipping through the Vogue magazine.Michelle sighed.“Elise, how's Blair?”Blair walked in with a cast around her arm and a bandage around her head. Her face... all bruised up.“Oh,” they chorused.“I thought I told you to rest,” Elise said firmly.“I don't need to rest. I'm fine” Blair said looking directly at me.“There, she said it. She's fine. Now I'm leaving” I said and jumped up from my seat.“Don't you dare take another step young lady!” Dad barks.“Oh gimmie a break, dad.”“No. I'm afraid I'm going to have to punish you” he said.“But dad—”“No son. I'm going to have to punish your sister.”“Well if you punish her..
(Cassie's POV)Time flew by.Summer found out André was her mate and she was beyond excited. I formed a really tight bond with my baby brother. I loved him to bits. I can't really say the same thing about Cassidy though. I mean that girl was a pain in the everything. So moving on. Blair and I hadn't been getting along, but that wasn't anything new. Jace had been trying to bond with Madison but it wasn't not really working out. And speaking of Jace... A knock interrupted me.“Come in,” I said looking through the paperwork. “Are you still mad about the kiss?” he asked. I seized up the yellow pencil lying on the desk and threw it. It sailed through the air and struck the wall just next to Jace's head, where it struck, vibrating. His eyes widened for a second and I smiled faintly. “Sorry, I didn't realize it was you.”Jace chuckled. “But it's a shame I have only one pencil” I sighed. “What can I help you with Mr. Graham?”“Cass, I'm sorry about the kiss...”“What kiss?” I asked, si
(Cassie's POV) “No, I want it cute... not too simple though,” I said through the phone.Members of the other packs waved and smiled as I passed by. I paused when a few teens ran up to me with notepads and cameras. I gave them my autograph and took selfies with them.“I don't know but I feel it's a girl,” I say. “No. I want it to be perfect.”I saw Montana walk in and look at me. “Err... Ray, I've gotta go. I'll call you later” I said. She suddenly let out a groan and I rushed up to her. “Are you okay?” I asked helping her sit. “The baby's coming!” she cried out. “I just felt my water break.” “Cassie?” Rose called. “Call an ambulance!”“It hurts!” Montana whimpered.I rubbed the back of her hand. “Breathe sweetie. It'll be fine” I told her. “Where on earth is the ambulance?!”“What if I lose another child? I'll be the fifth one. I don't think I'll be able to take it” she said in tears. “No, no, no” I whispered to her. “Ethan would be heartbroken.”“Don't think like that” I sai
