Chapter 12- Return

Lucy's POV

A year.

That's how long we were gone. I actually didn't think much of Becca. Life has been pretty great. I started to drink animal blood. It was nasty at first but I eventually got used to it. Lily and I started a small pack. It started off with me, Lily, Logan, Alex, Mom, Susan, Star, Carly, Katrina, John, Parish, and Danny. We started adding a few months after we left. The new members were Castle, Sam, Vera, Philip, Maya, Ian, Henry, Victor, Walter, Sadie, Jasmine, Kara, Mina, Mackenzie, Jordan, Annabelle, and last but not least Taylor.

I bought huge chunks of land and started to build a pack house, a club, and a resort. The night club, Fierce, was very popular. The resort isn't as popular but many still come for honeymoon, vacation, or a place to set a date. It is surrounded by plants, so it has a wonderful view. My appearance changed too. I grew about three inches, added red and blue highlights to my hair and let it grow out more.

I smiled down at the baby girl in my arms. She was the newest member in our family. Her name is Zara. Susan and Lily adopted her a month ago and everyone in the pack adores her.

Lucy come out to the front if the resort, Taylor told me through the mind link.

Coming.

I ran outside with Zara still in my arms, and caught a familiar scent. I walked passed the horizontal line of my family. My heart nearly stopped when I saw Becca holding hands with Ashley. They were staring at my pack.

"What are you bitches doing here?" Ashley yells at us.

"We own this place." I say back in a neutral tone. "If you are her to make reservations or coming for your reservation just say." They all looked at me surprised. I could see confusion in all of their eyes. I could also see jealousy flash through Becca's.

"We're here for reservations. I made one for us the other day." Becca said. I motioned for them to come inside. I passed Zara to Mckenzie.

"Name?"I said even though I already knew.

"Rebecca Vasquez." I searched the list of reservations.

"Yes. You have room 617 on the sixth floor." I hand her a key card to the room She takes it brushing her hand against mine. I stiffen as she grabs the card. Ashley drags her to the elevator and they leave.

"She shouldn't be here!" Lily exclaimed. "Why did you let her stay? Your just going to suffer, Lucy!"

"If she's happy then I'm fine with it." My heart burned suddenly. I gasped clutching my chest. I grabbed the desk tightly, so tightly that the metal crushed. It felt like my heart was getting stabbed by a thousand needles. Taylor was the closest and she grabbed me setting me upright.

"You're fine. You're going to be fine." She tells me. She helps me up as two more couples walk in. She leads me away from them and into the elevator. She grabs her card and unlocks the door. She laid me in the bed and sat next to me.

I curled up into a ball trying to ignore the growing pain. She rubbed my back whispering things, trying to get my mind off of the pain. Something rose up as it continued. My fangs slid down and Taylor backed up for a few seconds. She hesitantly stepped back to me.

"Lu. What's wrong?" I laughed maniacally.

"What's wrong? My mate is fucking someone and I'm here moping around." I cry out. My heart was broken now that memories were coming back. When she got hurt, I killed her dad, and then ran away. Leaving her there hurt. Why is my life so fucked up?!!!! Why did I leave her?

Why did I he have to do this to us?

Why my family?
