Chapter Eleven

"Can I"

Saskia POV

We made it back to our home. The rest went to the pack house.

It was late, I went straight to my house and into my room. I couldn't sleep anymore.

I went through my books, college starts next week, I have already decided to leave in the morning to stay at my apartment I had been sharing with a college friend. I text Annabel to let her know.

I pack a few things, I stared out my window most of the evening when it started getting light, I went out for a long run. I placed my headphones in I start to listen to can't stop by the red hot chili peppers, I needed the music to drown everything else out.

I decided on a long run that took hours, I was trenched in sweat, I managed to get back to the house.

When I walked in, everyone was around the kitchen table finishing their food.

"my baby girl"

Mom comes running towards me hugging me.

"mom I stink"

"tell me about it"

Willis smirked.

Alex came to my side and also hugged me.

"I don't mind having a stinky sister"

"thank you for that"

I play with my headphones

"I can't believe you can use those with wolf hearing, must make your ears bleed"

Liam walks in getting seconds from the kitchen.

"it soothes me"

"why don't you have a wash and I will make you something to eat, I think they have ate it all"

My mom looks at the guilty party.

"I will get dressed but I'm leaving going back to the city, I need to revise for my exams"

"your leaving again"

Mom looked sad, I hadn't spent time with her, I was away to meet all the packs and the challenges, it's been all summer term. We normally go shopping together, holidays, shows but nothing this time.

"I'm sorry, I will come back weekends"

She nodded to agree.

I fill my old Land rover with my extra clothes and files for college. I had this vehicle as a gift. It's a long wheel base all black land rover defender, it's a classic and my baby. I have travelled and camped out in this, even when my father said I had to be discreet about being out on my own, I'm sure he had guards following me close by. It's my pride and joy.

I was ready to leave and everyone came out of my home to hug me.

My mom was in tears as always.

"I'm not that far away and I'm meant to finish my course as we planned"

"I know, I wished you looked after yourself better and ate more"

"I'm fine, no more tears. I will be back soon"

I travelled into the city to the apartment. When I arrived it was empty my room mate was out. I settled back in, ignoring my phone and read a book.

Weeks were turning into months, it was getting close to Christmas and I had put all my work in for my holiday break.

I've worked hard since being back. I'm either studying in classes or running, in the gym. Keeping my mind off him.

I have been out a few times, Dragged by my room mate and some college friends but I wasn't much company when I was asked to dance or if any men wanted to talk to me, I couldn't help comparing them all to him, it was impossible.

I had been in contact with Antonio, he had made it public knowledge that I was their future Luna. Dad wasn't happy, he never liked that idea.

He wanted me to join him for us to spend time with each other. He was eager for us to take our relationship further, there wasn't anything stopping us.

I knew it was going to happen but I feel like I haven't recovered from him my mate, I can't say his name anymore. I thought time was a good healer it's more my heart has grown founder.

When I returned home no one was happy that I would be leaving for the holidays and not staying now but they knew I had my reasons and begrudgingly helped me arrange my visit tonight.

I started to pack, I managed to take a few pieces of work that I need to catch up before returning to college, I took a large backpack full of my clothes, should be alright, I went downstairs to say goodbye to everyone.

"there she is my baby girl".

Mom gives me a hug

"I miss you"

"I do too"

"I'm coming back and I want to spend some time with you when I return if that's okay"

"yes, I can't wait"

Dad walked in.

"it's time to meet up with him by the border"

Dad is still not taking it well, he offered with Willis to take me to the border to meet Antonio, that was the only way he would have this deal.

"let's go then"

I follow Dad and Willis to the truck, I placed my backpack in the back.

"see you in a few weeks"

I leave for the border.
