Chapter Sixty-Seven - Bestie

KARA

"You look beautiful, mio amore," Connor said as he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my cheek.

I wore a long white dress with black leggings underneath paired with ankle heel boots. My feather earring was in its place as always along with my locket necklace.

Speaking of the necklace, I opened it to look at the picture on the right.

A boy and a girl with big smiles on their faces as they posed for the picture. 'K+D' was engraved on the outside of the locket.

It was taken the day he passed.

I felt Connor gently wipe away the tear that escaped my eye and kiss my temple, "It's alright, my love. I'm here."

I closed the locket and turned around to face my mate.

A simple open flannel with a white shirt underneath and dark wash jeans paired with leather shoes. He had a reassuring smile on his face as he stretched his hand out for me to take. I returned the smile and took his hand before walking out to the field together.

***

The buffet was going great. Everyone was having the time of their lives. Connor and I were talking with an ally Alpha and Luna. They just had their second son a week ago and had brought both children here.

The first son, James, was two, and he kept raising his arms towards Connor, wanting to be picked up by him. He was reluctant at first but gave in anyway.

Looking at him handle a little toddler made me wonder what he would be like as a father.

Then get married and find out!

'We're too young.'

Nonsense. You're 19.

'Like I said, too young.'

"What?" Connor caught me staring and asked. I shook my head, "Nothing."

He raised an eyebrow before dismissing the question. I was about to say something when I felt it.

A new bond.

Two, actually.

Connor must've felt it too because he went completely still. I took a look around and saw it.

Collin and Jacob.

Connor put James down and held my hand before leading me to them.

"Col?" he called out to his brother first. Collin turned around and had a big smile on his face, "Con, Kara, this is my mate."

The girl had sleek black hair and black eyes. She waved, "My name is Emily Bell, Alphas."

"No formalities," Connor and I said at the same time and we looked at each other before lightly chuckling. A hand was placed on my shoulder and I turned around to be met with Jake and his mate.

"Kara, Renesmee. Nessie, Luna Kara," he introduced and we shook hands. She looked about 16, had brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. She smiled at me, "Renesmee Carlie, but you can call me Nessie or Ness, Luna."

I waved my hand, "No formalities, Ness. You're already part of the family."

Connor soon came and wrapped an arm around my waist before kissing my temple, "So the player has found his mate."

Jake punched his arm before glaring playfully at Connor. He challenged and stared back. I was about to say something when I felt it.

Something's not right.

I tried to sense what it was with Snow helping.

Connor noticed my expression and tightened his hold on my waist, "What is it?"

"Something's wrong."

I could feel him trying to catch what was off. That's when-

I put a shield over everyone's head so the crash didn't hurt anyone. Suddenly, a force field of some sort pushed everyone and everything away from a section of the field. It was about two basketball courts.

I was then thrown into the space and transparent force fields surrounded it. I got up from the ground and looked at a space portal of some sort with cold air emitting through, resembling the astral gateway.

That's when she appeared through the portal.

"Missed me, bestie?"

My lips trembled as the name left me.

"Jessica?"
