"Sleepy head, it's time to wake up," a voice pulled me from my sleep. "Come on."

I groaned softly and rolled over, burying my face in my pillow. I felt hands shake my shoulder gently. Shocks and tingles made their way up my arm and torso. I smiled to myself.

"You have to get up if you want to see your brothers today," Liam told me. I sighed and shook my head.

"I can see them another time," I mumbled to him. Liam chuckled and pulled the blanket off my body. I kept my eyes shut.

"Sugar, I'll make you get up. You've got to shower," Liam said.

After another ten minutes of him trying to get me out of bed, I finally gave up and got out of bed. Liam forced me in the direction of the shower and I walked into the bathroom and shut the door.

"You sure you don't need any help in there?" Liam asked me. I rolled my eyes as I turned on the water. My beast rumbled. She would love to be helped.

"Not from you," I replied cheekily. I undressed and then got into the shower.

After showering and eating a quick breakfast, it was time to leave. I didn't need to take anything with me, as my bedroom still had all my things in it back in Terialta.

"We're driving most of the way. I hope you have a long crossword puzzle," I nudged Ezra as we walked out the cabin. Jenny laughed at me and Ezra rolled his eyes.

"Shut up, Ali girl. I'll kick your butt," Ezra told me. I giggled as I walked along.

"Not my fault that you're literally a grandpa," I chanted to him. I saw him go to grab me from out the corner of my eye. I jumped forwards and avoided him.

I giggled to myself as we began to walk where all the cars would be parked. It was a little walk out the woods as the cars couldn't get past the thick trees.

"I hope you know that when we get to Terialta, you're going to be responsible for holding back your mate and his brothers from Brennon," Ezra told me as we walked. I felt a little more nervous at the mention of Brennon, but I didn't really care. I wasn't over what happened, but Brennon didn't scare me anymore.

I was sure that I could lay a good beating into him if he came too close.

"I know, I know," I nodded at him. Ezra offered me a small smile and chuckled.

"Or you could always just let them tear his ass apart," Ezra added. I shoved his shoulder and rolled my eyes at his comment. Jenny laughed a little as we came to the cars.

Everyone was already there. We were the last ones to arrive. Late as usual.

"You three could have at least made an effort to get here on time," Henry growled out as we approached him. I crossed my arms and said nothing as Ezra shrugged. Henry scoffed and rolled his eyes before looking away.

"Alright. Let's get going. It's a long drive," Henry said, turning and getting into the car which had Anthony and Melissa already sitting in it.

I turned to see where Liam was. I wanted to drive with him. I saw him leaning against his car, Veronica standing in front of him.

I rolled my eyes. I could already imagine that she was trying to convince Liam to let her drive with him. I hoped he wasn't going to let that happen. I hated the idea of that female driving in a car with Liam for several hours.
