I finished my shower and found Casey dressed and sitting on my bed. "I'm going to help you pack." She said. I nodded and searched for something to wear. Casey picked out a plain grey t shirt and black jeans. I went back into the washroom to change.
By the time I got back, Casey had finished completely packing my suitcase and was closing it. My eyeballs almost exploded out of their sockets. Was she the exact same girl who couldn't even comb her hair in ten minutes? "How did you do that?" I asked, completely shocked. "Werewolf speed." She grinned. "Let's go down." She grabbed my suitcase and went downstairs. I put my phone and charger in my bag. As I was leaving the room, I managed to glance at the silver coloured box which I had bought for my mom and grabbed it. I stuffed in into my backpack as I descended the staircase. Casey was standing there with Jake. "All good?" He smiled. I smiled back. "I haven't had a chance to introduce myself properly. Jake Welmer. Third beta of the Smaragd pack." He extended his hand forward. I smiled and shook his hand. "Rayne Hills. Normal teen who just found out that her entire family is full of werewolves and whose existence is almost completely staged." He laughed. His and Sasha's laugh was almost identical. So were their faces.
"Let's go!" Sasha announced as she burst through the front door. Just like Casey, she too seemed to have an enmity pact with doors.
Just as I was about to exit the villa with Jake, Casey and Sasha, she turned back and said, "Actually, I'll be right back in a second." Jake nodded in reply. "I'll stay with them." We went to the reception and checked out. "Checking our so early? Would you like to get the cash refund for the remaining five days credited to your account?" She asked. "Yes please." I replied. She handed us our envelope with the receipt for our stay and appointed a car. "I'm back!" Sasha came by. "Where were you?" I questioned as I sat in the black SUV. "Oh, I just had to make sure that there was no evidence or item left behind which might indicate you staying there." She shut the door behind us. The ride to the airport was quiet and Sasha spent most of her time texting someone on her phone. "Our jet has landed. It should be done fuelling up by the time we arrive." She kept her phone in her black handbag.
Throughout the time, I had noticed that both, Sasha and Jake had a great sense of style. Jake was wearing a simple black t shirt with distressed jeans and a denim jacket. Sasha wore a baby blue romper with black leggings and hoop earrings. She didn't wear any makeup. It didn't look like she need any either.
We arrived at the airport in approximately half an hour. I had believed that Sasha meant airplane when she said jet. But it quickly became apparent that she meant a private jet when we skipped each and every line there possibly was and were directly ushered into the exclusive lounge. "Your jet is fuelled and ready to go. Follow me please." An attendant lead us outside into the highly humid air. The asphalt glimmered due to the heat and the sun had begun to rise. A sparkly white jet was waiting for us. The staircase, covered in red carpet ascended down and we stepped into the cabin. It was cool due to the air conditioning and looked lavish. "Casey. Would you mind sitting with me? I have to update you on stuff." Sasha called out to Casey. "That means you're stuck with me." Jake giggled from next to me. I rolled my eyes. "Well,
I'm hoping you're not a boring person." He laughed as we sat on the cream coloured seats.
"Does your cousin have a boyfriend?" He randomly asked me as we took off. I laughed "No. No other threats." Throughout the flight, I found out that Jake's middle name was Daniel, favourite colour was green, was eighteen years old and a million other things. Jake was a very charming and sweet guy. I totally shipped him and Casey. Time flew by and I realised this when our pilot announced, "We will be landing in Aberdeen in fifteen minutes."
We soon descended and little did I know what was coming my way.
