*Roharu*As soon as I let Sienna go, she runs to hug Cassie and together they hold each other tight. She has changed but she is still the same, her smile gives her away.I walk to them and Cassie looks at me with eyes filled in tears, I open my arms and she lets me hug her. "Where have you been?"She shakes her head as she presses her face on my chest, and I look at Sienna who is smiling at us both and has her hands on her chest.As we finally recover from the emotional encounter, I lead them both to the car. Cassie holds Sienna's hand. "When I read Roha's letter, I had to drop everything and come see you both. You are engaged!"Sienna chuckles and without looking at her I already know she is blushing. "Yes, who would have thought, right?"Cassie snorts and laughs; a very typical Cassie reaction. "It was obvious you two were more than friends, we all saw it. I am surprised it took him this long to come to snatch you!"They both laugh and I shake my head. "You are going to make me look
*Sienna*After the very eventful day, I am so happy to see Cassie exploring the house and remembering experiences once lived here. I watch her get lost in thought and I walk to her with a smile. I was like her too when I came back for the first time."Do you remember the sleepovers we had in the living room?"Her eyes spark and she nods. "Oh, I remember it all."The way her fingers run through the walls and the furniture, it is almost like she is getting familiar with everything again, and I think she still can't believe she is back.Ro walks back to us and wraps his arms around me, Cassie looks at us and grins. "You know, you both were always very close. I am not surprised you were mates from the start.""Perhaps we were not feeling it as strongly as we feel it now, but I always knew she had to be a part of my life." He then kisses the top of my head and I blush at his words."You two are adorable," her smile matches her words.I am so happy we managed to get her back into our lives,
*Sienna*I wake up feeling some cold wind blowing and I find myself shivering. The window is slightly open, and I see what is missing; Ro is not here.Once I close the door, I rub my eyes and try to go back to bed, but I find it strange that he is not here with me. I check the clock on the nightstand and it shows it is only four o'clock. The door to the bathroom is partially open and it is dark inside. Where is he?I hear something strange, like people talking somewhere in the house, and I know he must be there. I get up, cover myself with the shawl on the armchair, and head outside the room.I hear the voices, and I recognize one of them being Ro's. It must be something important if he got up so early to deal with it. Should I leave him to deal with his things? Can I be of any help?Curiosity gets the best out of me, and I walk through the halls following the voices, and I reach to his office when I hear him growl. My heart pounds fast and I hesitate only for a fraction of a second b
*Sienna*I rub my eyes and slowly begin to wake up. Unlike last night, I feel rested and warm; Ro's arm is still around me, and he seems to be still asleep. I yawn and stretch a bit and his eyes snap open."I am so sorry! I didn't mean to wake you up!"He chuckles and shakes his head. "I have been awake for quite a while now, I just didn't want to leave your side."I blush and shake my head. "You are being so corny."He fakes being hurt. "Me? Corny?" then scoffs and pulls me closer to kiss me. "You make me corny."We kiss slowly and tenderly, oblivious to everything and everyone in the world. I feel that being with him is a dream. When we finally let go of each other, my human body requests some attention. I giggle and look up at him."I need to go to the bathroom."He nods and smiles. "There are some people waiting for us, mates to be found, justice to be served, you know the drill."I laugh. "What time is it?"He grins and looks at me. "Only 1 pm."I gasp and look at him in shock. "
*Sienna*I am standing behind the chair where Solange is sitting nervously, and we are both waiting quietly as Ro and Xavier seem to be discussing some things. The plan is basic; we prepared an invitation to Ro and mine's engagement party. How Mei managed to design and print one on such short notice is beyond me.Ro had told Gregory that he would like to give it to him himself. We already had some pack members report that only Dante was running errands for him, as Gregory himself rarely goes out of his mansion.Thanks to the long sleep I was allowed to have, now it was late in the evening, so we are supposedly having late dinner after we ourselves ran some errands. The story probably has more details than Dante would ever ask once he senses his mate."Are you sure you can take it?" Ro reaches us and sits next to her.Solange shivers and her eyes lock on his. "I don't know what I am even feeling."Ro smiles at her and takes her hand in his. "He would be the biggest idiot in the world i
*Roharu*"She drives me crazy," I say to Sienna as I sit in bed and sigh. "She is a powerful woman, but she loves to push me to my limits."Sienna walks out of the bathroom and lays down, inviting me to join her. I close my eyes and lay next to her, sliding an arm under her head. She presses her body to me and looks into my eyes. "That is just how she is, and who knows, maybe she has had people ordering her around all her life. 'Do this, act like this, don't say that.'"I frown as I look at her. "Are you seriously defending her?""I am just saying, she probably doesn't know any other way to be. And we are the ones who are offering her an example of how things should be, so we should try to be more forgiving."I can't believe what she is saying, and I know she is probably right, but my pride doesn't let me say it just yet. I just kiss her forehead and hold her tight to me; both of us quietly drifting to sleep.When I wake up, I sense Xavier at the door, and he wants to walk in. I look
*Sienna*The air is thick, and although it's sunny, it is strange to my eyes. Clouds seem to approach in the distance as we arrive at the front door, Solange looks nervously at the car driving in our direction. Her smile is almost gone.Ro ordered Cael and Kall to stand at our sides and Xavier is next to him. I am also nervous, and I just hope that this works out.The tension as the car, a black Sedan, comes to a stop in front of us all, is almost too thick. He walks out and his eyes find Solange first.He walks to Ro and Xavier, and there is a brief exchange between them; I see he is nervous and there are also dark shadows encasing his eyes.As soon as Ro nods and turns to look at us, we start walking towards him. I hold Solange's hand firmly and she seems to have trouble breathing.Dante looks painfully at her; it is almost like he can't bear the pain she is going through, the mating bond is strong and it has him already questioning his loyalty. He looks at me and bows his head. "Go
*Sienna*I eat my breakfast with a newfound interest, as I try what the chef has prepared for me. The pancakes on my plate were made especially for me, and their fluffy sweetness makes me want to devour them in one bite. Ro watches me amused, he always goes for a pile of bacon and juice.This morning we welcome Dante and we leave him and Solange to spend time together, making sure the twins keep a close eye on them, and Xavier is driving us out. Mei is staying with me at the school, and Xavier will accompany Ro to see other Alphas.I am thrilled to share the invitations Mei made for me; they are simple pearl-colored cards, with elegant gold lettering. It makes all of this more real, and it makes me feel like I am closer to Ro than ever.We get out of the card and wave as they leave, then we walk to the building and I spot Diane waiting for me at the door.She has always surprised me, because no matter how early I would arrive, she would be there first. "Di, do you sleep here?"She lau
