Lola's POV:
I wake up to my cell ringing checking the time it's 7am who in the world is calling at this hour. Checking the color id it says South Dakota police department why are they calling me so early. Answering the phone it's one of Travis and I's best friend Raven. Raven tells me there has been an accident that involves Keegan and Esmé, and we need to fly there as soon as possible, so, she can explain more when we get to the police department. Ending the call I shoot up out of the bed and wake Travis up telling him we have to go to Hot Springs South Dakota because Keegan and Esmé's been in an accident. I don't know all the details, but it is bad, and we have to go now. We have to protect Star at all costs no matter what. Travis, and I pack a bag for a couple of days with only our essentials that are needed and run out the door to our little blue pick-up truck. Heading to the airport we are silent you could hear a pin drop afraid to know what will be in store for us when we get to South Dakota. Arriving at the Wyoming national air port we fly through check out and aboard the plane, so we can find our seats. It will take almost 4 hours to get there, since we can't use our cell phones on the plane we plug our pods into our ears and listens to music to pass the time till we find out more information. Stepping off the plane we are met with one of our best friends from Hot Springs Police department, Raven comes over to us with a sad face and tells us to follow close behind her, so she can escort us to the police department, so we can talk there. Walking into the police station Raven leads us straight to her office in the back. Raven say, she is truly sorry, but she didn't make it there in time, and she didn't think it would be right to tell us over the phone, but she learned that Keegan and Esmé died at the scene of the crash, but she also learned that Esmé had been stab with a laced knife with ravine that pierced her heart. They realized this wasn't just an accident, but it was a terrible murder. Travis, and I knew right away that we would have to inform Star of her parents and bring her with us to Casper Wyoming to stay. First we have to go to the clan to get ahold of Julius to fill him in on everything he will know what we need to do from there. Travis says, let's head to the school to tell Star. When we get to the school we head straight to Mr. Anderson's office to let him know what happened to Keegan and Esmé because he was also a good friend of there's and helped watch over Star from afar. After we fill him in Mr. Anderson announced Star's name over the intercom about 5 minutes or so later she walks in. I can tell she sense's something is off because Travis and I are here, and we haven't seen each other for about 4 years or more. Mr. Anderson asks her to please take a seat but before Star sits down she comes over to give us a hug and to let us know that her mom and dad will be so happy to see you guys. My heart breaks because she doesn't know yet, and I try to hold back the tears the best that I can. Star finally takes a seat, and we let Mr. Anderson break the news to her. Looking at Star you see her bright shining eyes start to dim, and her heart breaks into a million of pieces, then all of a sudden she starts to fall to the floor. Oh my goodness someone catch her before she hits her head. Travis catches her right before she falls and cradles her to his chest. The secretary Mrs. Reese comes in to the office and guides us to the nurses station, so we can lay Star down in one of the small beds to rest. I ask Mr. Anderson if her friends can come down before she wakes up, because she is going to need all the support she can get and I’m afraid Travis and I won't be enough. He calls her friends Cody, Jasmine, Sam, and Jesse to the office. Travis fills them in on what has happened, and they all agree to stay here with her no matter how long it takes because that is what best friends are for. Two hours later when the last bell of the day rings Star wakes up looking around confused at everyone then reality hits her within a few seconds, and she starts to ball her eyes out. Jasmine and Sam are the first ones to get to her they end up all hugging each other while crying and comforting Star in her time of need. Star finally starts to calm down, so we all decided to head to her house with all her friends, and mourn the loss of great friends, and a great mother and father. Now it's time to break the news to her that she has to come home with us to Casper Wyoming hoping she doesn't take it to hard, because she will have to leave her old life behind her in order for us to keep her safe and out of harms way. How do you even begin to start a conversation like that. You can tell she is physically and mentally drained, but we don't have a choice. Before we leave of course we will make sure our best friends are laid to rest and everything is settled here. Then, onto new beginnings at least I hope so.Stars POV: The night comes way too soon, and my friend's leave to head to their houses. I jump into the shower and start to cry what feels like the millionth time today. I can't believe they are gone they were my rocks the people I went to them for everything big or small, and now I feel like I have no one. Getting out of the shower I change into my daddy's shirt throw on a pair of pajama pants and crawl into bed. I can't sleep that night because all I do is cry my heart out. Finally, falling into a deep slumber I get woke up by Lola knocking on my bedroom door checking on me and letting me know that breakfast is ready. Climbing our of bed walking to the bathroom so, I can do my business after I'm done in the bathroom finding my way down the steps to the kitchen sitting down at our little island to eat but I don't have a very big appetite. Lola and Travis sit down with me and tries to start some small talk. We start planning everything out for my parents funeral when that
Star POV: Stepping off the plane I stop in my tracks not wanting to move feeling nervous all of a sudden. I guess it's because I'm in a new place I've never been before. Travis and Lola has always come to visit us back home during the holidays and summer break because mom and dad were always busy with work. Travis notices my discomfort and tells me everything will be okay, and that I will love it here. We don't have to wait for our luggage because everything was shipped the night before so, it would be at the house when we got there. Arriving at the house I get out of the car and just stare at their house it is absolutely beautiful with its old-fashioned Victorian style it looks like a miniature castle. Heading inside it’s just as beautiful as the outside with its high ceilings, wrap around staircase, dark painted walls, and a chandelier that hangs right in the middle of the entrance to the house. Lola shows me my room which is up the spiral steps on the second floor to the
Continue Stars POV After I calm down, Travis suggests I take the car for a spin. Excitement bubbles within me, and I can't resist the urge to jump into the driver's seat. Before I leave, Travis mentions a small café at the end of town, suggesting I check it out. I thank them, eager to explore my new surroundings. Pulling out of the garage, I head towards the café, my heart pounding with anticipation. As I approach the café, I notice a group of high school kids hanging out nearby, their laughter mingling with the thick smoke rising from their cigarettes. Ignoring their presence, I step inside the small establishment named "Grandma's Place." The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and sweet pastries envelops me, enticing my senses. Walking up to the counter, I place my order for a vanilla mocha swirl and a glazed donut, unable to resist the delicious offerings. The waiter assures me she will bring my order to me shortly, and I find a seat towards the back of the café. Minutes tick
Julius POV: Julius wake your ass up! I hear my brother shout in my head. Trying to ignore him and go back to sleep all I hear is Axle's mouth repeating my name over and over again. Julius Julius Juliusssss!!! Oh, right I forgot to tell you we are vampires and can talk to each other in our minds it's called mind linking. Cool right yeah not always especially if you have an annoying brother like I do. Laughing to myself I jump up out of the bed and yell, Axel shut the hell up already I'm up and of course he responds by laughing really. Stupid brother can't live with him and can't live without him, but when you're a vampire you don't really have a choice because can live thousands of years. Unfortunately I'm stuck with him just kidding he's the only family, I have left, so I'm very protective of him even when he drives me crazy most days. Breaking my train of thought Axel throws my bedroom door open and I end up catching a pillow he threw right before it h
Stars POV: Wake up Star we are going to the county Fair before you start school on Monday. Opening my eye I feel pretty well and refreshed, and I can tell it's going to be a great day. Well at least I'm hoping it will. Lola walks in making sure that I heard her and I'm awake she sees that I'm smiling and says it's great to see you smile your parents always love it, but anyway why are you so happy? I just feel like today is going to be a good day and I'm happy about it plus we are going to the fair, and I haven't been to one since I was a little girl. I tell her while smiling like a fool. Jumping up out if bed I walk to my closet and open the door now what should I wear? hmm! nothing to fancy, but I don't want to look like a bum either you know. Finally, making my choice I grab a pair of faded blue shirts with a couple little holes because there my favorite pair plus very comfortable and I love them. I pair them with a green tank top and a half cut white jacket grabbing my co
Julius's POV: Finding out about the information Lola and Travis shared pissed me off so bad. Keegan and Esmé were like family, and we have always taken care of our, but we failed they were amazing and would give you the shirt right off there back in a heartbeat no questions asked. Esmé was part of Dustin and Trevor's pack she was an amazing warrior and great help in the pack hospital. Now that they are gone we have to keep Star safe she has been kept secret from the supernatural world but for a few people because of what she is the first bad ass hybrid vampire half werewolf, and she will be very powerful. Keegan and Esmé never told her what she really is or even what they were. They had a witch cover her natural sent and delay her powers till she turns 18 because they wanted to keep her safe for as long as they could but now that they are no longer here it's Lola Travis, and I's job to help her through everything. Wishing Travis and Lola a fair well we go out separate
Julius's POV: On my way back home I'm going well over the speed limit but I couldn't care less right now. Star's life is in danger, and she doesn't know anything about it or even I really am. How do you tell a girl you just meet hey so yeah we are mates and you actually a hybrid that's in danger plus everyone you have ever knew has lied to you your whole life, and they are also supernatural. Yeah, right! Great plan not I would definitely lose her before I even had a chance to have her. Pulling into the driveway I start barking out orders not really barking because I'm a vampire and all but you know what I mean. Axel, Devon, Trevor where the hell are you. Not even a minute later we meet in my office to discuss the note and the deceased girl. Axel did you place two guards outside the house like I asked. Axel — Yes I sent two if our best Peter and Kyle. Me — Okay good idea sending them. Devon Trevor were you able to get any information on what happened tonight.
Stars POV: Closing the door to my car I hit the lock button to follow Bonnie. Come on Star don't be nervous we won't bite. Bonnie sayings while holding in a chuckle. Fighting the urge to roll my eyes I walk next to Bonnie with a small smile on my face. Stopping next to her friends car I look up and see a girl with black curly hair and blue eyes with fair color skin. She has the biggest smile on her face and I smile back to her. Bonnie starts to introduce me to everyone. This is Axel he smiles at me and I give him a small wave. This is Laney, hey it's nice to have another girl in the gang. They are Damon, Trevor, and Julius he is also Axel's brother. Thinking to myself that's why they look so much alike duh! Julius shows me what I'm guessing is his trademark smile oh gosh them dimples are to die for geezer girl you don't even know the dude and you already eye googling him my self-conscious say. I give him a big smile in return. He pulls me in for a friendly hug, so I hug him
