~Two Years Later- Cassie.


    as my best friend.


    "Girl, I''m so d that these stupid-ass sses are almost done," Melissa said with excitement through the other end of my phone. She and I had been friends for as long as I could remember, and though we had both been through some crazy shit, I was d I had this girl "Yeah, soon we will be on to bigger and better things."


    "Don''t remind me," she groaned as I continued holding up different shirts to my body in front of the long mirror in my room. "I won''t be able to make it without you."


    Without me? Confusion settled in beforeughter escaped me at her dramatic tone. "What are you talking about? I''m not going anywhere but to college with you. Unless you n on making it with some other girl. Which, I mean, I''m gonna need to know her name, so I know exactly who to fuck upter."


    "Oh, my god, stop," she sighed. "You know what I''m talking about."


    I did know what she was referring to, but it wasn''t going to happen. "Nope, I''m going with you, Melissa. Stop oveplicating it."


    For the past few years, I had been excited with the notion I was going to escape my pack life to go to college with Melissa, not to mention how amazing my life had gone over the past two years-I had no intentions of doing anything my parents wanted me to do.


    I had gone from being a nobody who couldn''t control her shit, to having almostplete control-in my eyes as I stayed at the top of my ss in all subjects preparing for an amazing life of full ride schrships and future college parties.


    There was no way I was giving any of that up for anything.


    No matter what my parents had to say.


    "Yeah, right? As much as I would love that, you can''t get out of your obligations. Remember what Prisci said..."


    Thinking about the woman made me roll my eyes. "She is old and crazy. She has no idea what she is talking about. Now stopining and get your ass ready. I''m leaving shortly, and I expect you to be there when I get to school. "Fine, calm your tits, woman," she said. "I''ll be there in thirty."


    My friend was always the dramatic one out of the two of us, but without her, I wouldn''t be able to move through the day like I did. "Better. Don''t forget, it''s your turn to grab coffee."


    "Shit... well, better make it forty then. See you soon."


    "See ya." Cracking a smile, I hung up the phone, shaking my head. So much had changed over the past few months, and thinking about how ourst year of school was about to end, couldn''t wait to move forward with my life.


    "A week left, Cass..." I muttered to myself, finally happy with the ck gothic look I sported. My deep purple and pink hair was a huge contrast against the ck skinny jeans and tight nk tank top I wore. It may not have been a look my mother approved of, but it was definitely me.


    Taking a deep breath, I tried to ignore the ever-growing voices hidden within the deepest depths of my mind. I had done well thest two years, learning control over my powers and many other things.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    After everything that had happened between my mother and I two years ago, my father Talon changed up the punishments Pollux and I usually received and, in doing so, actually found what helped to ground me.


    Fighting was the only thing I knew


    anymore, and while I trained with my


    brother and the warriors, I did it in secret. My mother didn''t approve just like the many other things she didn''t approve of, but it was the one thing my father Talon stood beside adamantly.


    "Cass, are you ready to go?" Pollux''s voice called from my doorway, causing me to gaze at him from the long mirror I currently stood in front of.


    "Yeah, I''ll be there in a sec."


    "Sure, whatever," he scoffed, flipping the long strands of ck hair from his face before disappearing down the hallway. "Just don''t take forever, otherwise, I fucking leaving you."


    The sound of his voice trailing down the hallway toward my room caused me to roll my eyes. It was always the same with him anymore. The moment he got hurt ying football and was told he couldn''t y anymore, he became aplete asshole.


    Thank god daddy Damian was able to keep him busy preparing to take over the pack from Hale one day. Otherwise, he may have taken out his anger on everyone else around him.
