SUNLIGHT ENTERED THE mansion as she pushed her head further into her pillow. Though her head quickly shot up when the smell of bacon filled her nostrils. Rubbing her eyes, she made sure to check her phone for any new message before getting out of bed. Not even looking at herself in the mirror, the brunette dragged her bare feet all the way to the kitchen.
"Morning prinţesă", a brown haired man said with a small smile as she gave him a small nod.
Stefan Leonte was a 26 year old millionaire, who owned a large chain of hotels all around the world. Though his clientel was mostly based in Romania and Italy. He was the son of her mother's sister - in other words her aunt, Claudia Leonte.
"Morning văr. Ce gatesti?" morning cousin. what are you cooking?
"Slănină, ouă și gem" bacon, eggs and jam
"Jam? Since when can you make jam?", she asked with a raised eyebrow as her cousin rolled his eyes. Placing two toasts on her white ceramic plate, Stefan tossed her a mason jar filled with strawberry jam.
"It's one of my many secrets"
"The other one being the fact that you own twenty billion hotels and that you're rich as fuck"
"Taci!" hush
He responded making her double over in laughters as he finished placing the rest of the food in her plate. Stefan was very protective of his cousin for two different reason. 1) He had been alone for 17 years, not knowing he had any remaining family. 2) He knew how hard the death of her siblings hit her. That's why he promised to always be by her side, no matter what.
The two of them ate in silence, no words were needed. They enjoyed the silence, only hearing the clock ticking thanks to their super-hearing. Stefan was also a werewolf, it was almost inevitable since all of their family came from a long line of werewolves. Though he didn't known what he was, since his mother died before he could even have his first transformation. That was until he stumbled upon a pack of werewolves, they immediately sniffed him out and helped him become the man he was today.
They called themselves the Ricci pack, they were all Romanian which was kind of ironic since they sounded more Italian. The pack was loaded with money since they were all business man/woman.
"Cas? Cas!", Stefan called out while snapping his fingers in front of his cousin's face. The Alpha growled before looking up from her plate to meet Stefan's piercing blue eyes.
His eyes.
She hated them for making her remember simpler times. A time where she was happy. They reminded her of him. Shaking that thought out of her head, Cassiopeia frowned her eyebrows when she heard the piercing sound of her phone buzzing.
"It's been like that for the past 5 minutes. You going to answer or...?"
"Yeah, yeah. Give me a minute"
She responded with an eye roll before swallowing the remaining piece of toast she had. Grabbing her phone, the brunette walked towards the balcony for some privacy. Since she has been living with the Ricci pack, there was barely any privacy whatsoever.
"Hello"
"Cas?"
His voice. That's all it took for her heart to want to jump through her chest. Her breath hitched as flashbacks filled her brain. Memories of him. Him and her. Them.
This was the sign she needed. The push to bring her back home. It was him. He was the push. He had always been the push.
