We arrived at the mansion the driver opened the car door for us and grabbed my luggage. I insisted that I'll carry it up to my room.

We entered the mansion there was a banner that said WELCOME HOME. I think Mom overdid it but I really appreciate their effort.

Just then Mom came in from the kitchen along with Dad and Hunter.

"Oh you're here" Mom said running to me she gave me a tight hug.

"How I miss you Chase" Mom said squeezing me.

"Mom loosen up please I can't breath" I said in a low voice I was out of breath.

"Oh sorry" Mom let me go.

"How are you son?" Dad said gave me a hug and pat on the back.

"Good, Well did Mom made you her test subject because of boredom while I was away?" I questioned.

"No Hazel was often here with Hunter we weren't actually bored" Dad explained.

"Finally your back I didn't have anyone on my side while you were away" Hunter said.

"Hazel often made me look bad in front of Auntie"

"I did not" Hazel denied.

I chuckled which made them look at me.

"What? Anything wrong?" I questioned.

"No, nothing why don't you head up and place your things I'll finish up in the kitchen" Mom said.

I nodded and headed up to my room.

Hazel's P.O.V

"Something's definitely off with Chase" I said "He doesn't laugh like that when Hunter and I are neck and neck he usually shakes his head and not care"

"Now you mention it I could feel something is off with him too" Auntie added "His different call it Woman's intuition I guess"

"Maybe he's just tired Honey" Uncle said to Auntie.

"No, I think they're on to something Uncle" Hunter said thinking "He's different like his someone else. Could someone kidnapped Chase and swap with him?"

"That's impossible" I said "As if someone can take him down have you seen the guy. His fucking strong he even defeated us he was holding back too"

"Maybe he finally met a girl" Auntie said with a chuckle "I think I'm way over my head. I expected to soon that I'll have a daughter-in-law when he gets back"

"Actually I think you're onto something Auntie" I said remembering what happened at the station "There was a girl he was talking to before I shouted and jumped for a hug at Chase. I saw her glaring at me but instead roll my eyes at her or glare back I smiled and nodded"

"That's new you usually threaten the girl with your gaze when someone glares at you" Hunter said.

"Yeah, but with her, I felt at ease or something I don't know. Chase said she was just a friend I'll never believe him his only female friend is me" I said.

"Maybe it's one of his girls" Hunter added.

"I doubt it" Uncle said "My son might not take a girl seriously. But with a mission his dead serious he doesn't let anything interfere"

"Do you know her name, Hazel?" Auntie questioned.

"I heard it but I forgot it starts with an H" I said trying to remember "Her- Her- Hermione that's the one"
