Rena pov

I picked out a cabin similar to the one we were staying in, we still had allot of exploring to do. I sighed sadly and knew today was one of my worse days, I wasn't taking this as well as I would have liked to.

"Rena, c'mon, let's go check out the new place.

I knew we still had to pay for it, but I didn't mind. I was content being with my big sister and Calum, they were the closest I had to being my best friends right now.

I didn't know what to do, I was happy being with them though. I had Luke with me in a way, but it wasn't the same as his physical touch and his physical form. I pulled out some clothes from the closet and got dressed.

I felt like dressing up a little and wanted to make this good, I even put on some makeup. I wasn't sure what to make of this, I wondered if Astra wouldn't have tried killing m not tracking me down if she would have been a best friend of ours.

I didn't want to think about her or Casey, I didn't know what they had against me. I finished getting ready and headed for the car, I was going to meet Nia and Calum there at the house. I was getting us all some Starbucks before though so we could just relax a bit.

I looked forward to this, getting a new start in a new place. I didn't know what I would do if it weren't for my friends and family, and I really was thankful they'd let me pick where we would be living.

I had a gps and was able to put the new house into it, I was happy knowing where we were wasn't too bad. We didn't ever have to go back to Los Angeles again, we could if we really wanted to, or if we were called to court to testify against Casey. But if we didn't have to go back I didn't want to.

I got our drinks and made my way to the new house we were going to be buying. I didn't know who all was going in on what or if I was going to be the one to pay for it, I didn't mind if I did though. I just wanted the house and I looked forward to ya all being together.

I wasn't sure what to make of this, I slammed the car door shut and entered the house. A cold feeling swept over me, I shivered a little as I carried the drinks in.

I didn't know what I was feeling, I just knew something was a little off. I didn't want to give it much thought though, I was happy being with my friends.

"Cal, Nia, I'm here."

I wasn't sure what would happen but I was having fun, I was thankful knowing we were in a new place. I didn't know where they were, and I didn't know if I was in the right place or what was going on.

I shakily walked through the house then not even seeing the person we were supposed to buy the house from, I sighed slightly not sure if I was in the right place. I didn't like the feeling of being alone right now, I tried turning the lights on but couldn't.

I looked around me not expecting to be visited by anyone, but I had a feeling I was. I expected it to be Casey if anything. I thought things through and set the drinks down, I got mine and drank a little bit of it.

I heard the door slam behind me and looked around, I was perplexed and wished I could figure this out. I didn't see anyone, but that didn't mean nobody wasn't here.

"Calum, Nia, I'm here. Where are you guys."

I felt as if I had broken into a home somebody owned, I shivered once more and cursed as I burned my tongue and mouth on my drink. I wasn't sure what to expect or who would be here, but I didn't think Calum and Nia were.

I heard a cold hearted laugh and turned around, the sight of her sent chills down my spine. I saw Astra and wondered why she was here to begin with, I didn't know what she had against me. I didn't know if I was just imagining her here or if she truly was here.

"Let's get one thing straight Rena, I'm not going to let you take my brother from me. I'm not afraid to teach you a lesson, I'm not going to let anyone get between me and Casey."

I gulped a little thinking things through, I didn't know what she was doing here and I was afraid of her. I just nodded as she said this and wondered what would happen, I didn't want her to know that I was afraid.

"I'm not afraid of you Astra, I've never wanted to take Casey or anyone away from you. I've never liked him that way either, if you've got a problem with me then fine, you've got a problem with me. It's your loss, but don't bring me or my friends and family into this."

I pulled a hand through my hair not even knowing where they were, I just hoped she hadn't tied them up. I didn't want to mess this up, I didn't want to lose anybody else because Casey and his sister were crazy.

"I can say and do whatever I want to Pyrena, I've got both Calum and Szatania safe and sound. They're here, but don't worry, they're not harmed."

I glared daggers at her and wondered what would happen, I wasn't sure what to do. I needed to get away from this woman and keep my friends close and my enemies closer.

"Fuck off Astra, you're just a bitch when you don't get your way. Leave me the hell alone, and leave my family and friends out of this. I've never done anything to you damn it."

I pulled out my little switch blade and threatened her with it, I knew she could use it against me though.

"I wouldn't threaten me with that Rena, I'm not afraid to set this house on fire and burn it to the ground with you in it. You're breaking and entering, this isn't your place and it never will be."

I bit my tongue to keep from being too snarky with her, I didn't trust her. I didn't know who I could or couldn't trust, but I knew I couldn't trust her.

"You're the reason we never got a call back or anything, you did this to us. You're sick, just like your brother, you need to get locked away with no visitation and you need to get help."

I was advanced upon and knew I couldn't beat her at her own game, I had called the police though and kept quiet. I did this so they could hear us and track us down, I just hoped they wouldn't take me in for anything.

There was so much going on lately and it just didn't feel right.
