All Chapters of To Catch a Dream: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

There was a knock on my door, startling us apart from each other, attempting to catch our breath. I groaned as I attempted to climb off of Koa's lap but his hands held me firmly in place. "Who is it?" Koa called out causing a shocked expression to form on my face. He smirked and gave a quick wink while I childishly stuck out my tongue."It's Azalea...mother called a house meeting. Something is going on and I'm really worried..." My baby sister's voice sounded through the closed door. I looked towards Koa, seeing the suddenly serious look as he released his hold on my hips. I hopped off of his lap and quickly grabbed some clothes. He did the same. When I swung the door open, Azzie and Ethan were both waiting for us. We gathered in the room adjacent to our mother's office, quickly taking our seats."Thank you for everyone joining me. There's been a blackmail letter delivered to the house with a little gift." My mother's voice was stern as she emptied the contents of an envelope. I recog

I have now been undercover for six months, finding the weak link as my mother put it, in order to find how we could take care of the blackmail incident once and for all. It's my birthday tomorrow and I just wanted to be back at home with my family and Koa. I sighed to myself knowing that my wish wouldn't be coming true. I stared out the window of the large mansion that I called 'home' for the last half of a year when I noticed some flashes coming from down below. I quickly threw on my jacket when I heard the crashing coming from the first floor. Grabbing my hidden pistol and tucking it safely into my holster located under my jacket, I quickly dashed down the stairs.I stood in awe as I took in the sight before me. Standing there were the two sets of twins, Isaac and Landon, and Liam and Parker. They all wore huge grins when they saw me. "Ma found out enough. Time to take you home, little sis." Isaac spoke just as a guy came from behind. The four of them glared as the right-hand grabbe

The week went by in a blur. I couldn’t bring myself to actually leave my room as the news began to settle in. A light knock sounded at my door before Parker entered my darkened bedroom. “Hey Eira…how are you feeling?” He whispered. I gave a slight shrug as he sat next to me. “Do you feel like visiting with the family today?” I shook my head as I kept my eyes trained on my lap. “Will you at least think about it?” I gave a small nod causing him to kiss the top of my head before he left me alone. I covered my body with my fuzzy blanket and blinked away the silent tears that had fallen. I tensed when I heard the door open. “Okay. That’s enough.” I glared up towards the tall silhouette standing above me. “Go away Koa.” My voice came out as a raspy whisper. He shook his head as he pulled the blanket off of me.“No. You aren’t the only one that is hurting from this. Now get up.” I glared at him, shaking my head as I stubbornly crossed my arms over my chest. His jaw tensed briefly before he

I woke the next morning to an empty bed with the sun shining through the slightly opened curtains. I groaned as I attempted to go back to sleep but sighed, giving up at my feeble attempt. I tossed the covers to the side and pulled on some shorts and one of Koa’s hoodies. I walked down the stairs and towards the kitchen but hesitated when I heard Koa talking with my mother in her office. I knocked on the door before quickly entering the large office. They both turned to look towards me before glancing back at each other. “Hi.” I greeted them cautiously. Koa smiled as he walked over to me, pulling me gently into his side. “Good morning.” He placed a brief kiss on my temple. “What were you two just talking about?” I questioned while glancing between the two of them suspiciously. Koa shrugged while my mother just watched us. “Ma?” She gave a slight nod before gesturing towards the chairs set in front of her desk. I sat down in the one directly in front of her while Koa sat next to me, hi

I woke up the next morning and pulled on a hoodie and some pajama shorts before walking downstairs towards the kitchen. I was surprised to see the house empty but smiled at the calmness. I set my mug into the keurig while waiting for the water to warm up for my coffee. Just a few brief moments later, the smell of mild roast coffee filled the air around the kitchen. I took this moment to sit on the front porch while slowly sipping at the hot liquid warming my favorite mug. About twenty minutes later, the familiar black dodge durango pulled into the family’s driveway before my brothers piled out of the SUV. I grinned while admiring the close bond that happened within our family’s bloodlines. “Dawnie!” My brother, Parker shouted as soon as he saw me. I smiled warmly at him while waving.“Hey Park. Where have you been lately?” I smirked, teasing the youngest of my brothers. He playfully rolled his eyes.“Oh you know, here and there.” He chuckled while giving a noncommittal shrug. I burst
