"lI don't need her to be happy". | spoke. "But | can't seem to let go of her completely. Am | a bad person | still feel
terrible about yesterday".
"Hey". He whispered coming to sit beside me. "Get that out of your head. You're not a bad person baby you've
just had enough of the bullshit she's put you through and as for not being able to let her go you'll never be able
to because you've a good heart. She's still family, she still raised you and that's the thing you won't be able to
part with". "You're right". | nodded. "But | have to do something because we can't keep going on like this. | feel
sick at the thought of meeting with her".
"Well look at it this way. She can't tell you anything you don't already know. I'm going to shower". He took his
coffee with him and made his way upstairs.
He was right about that. | had found out everything or at least | hope | have. | couldn't bear anymore hidden
truths.
| sat watching reruns of desperate housewives drinking my coffee and scrolling through my phone. I still found it
weird that | hadn't heard from Alanna. | wasn't sure if we were on speaking terms since last tshe stormed
out,
| stalker her Facebook but her last post was 7 days ago and that wasn't like her. She was always posting
something. So, | checked Lacey's because she was still avoidinglike the plague.
Her last post was a sicky face.
Understandable.
I'd have to wait and see. | put my phone away and left my cup on the coffee table as | made my way upstairs.
| tried to get away with sitting in the car when we stopped by his parents, but Jake was having none of it.
Anytwe stop by his parents he gets caught up and we end up being there for hours. "We'll be 5 minutes 10
tops". He promised.
| wasn't doing it to be bad | was just hungry. | unclipped my seatbelt and followed his lead as he got out the car. |

were here it was hard to leave.
| made my way into the kitchen as Jake went in search for his dad. No doubt to his office. | helped myself to
swater and stood by the windows so | could stare out into the forest.
| always loved the view they had. It never failed to makesmile especially around Christmas time. | took a
seat at the kitchen island and checked my phone for any messages.
Still no reply from the girls though. A sigh fell from my lips. How long do you leave it before you send another
message? | began to put my phone away when it started to vibrate. Carter was calling me.
"Hello?". | answered.
"Bear".
"Is everything okay?".
"Do you know that grans here?". He asked.
"I do". | chewed the inside of my cheek.
"And that she's staying in her old house?".
"Yes, Carter | know but she can't stay there not when Jack and Lacey need it". Lacey was pregnant and they
needed their own space.
"Why's she here?". He asked.
"Do you want to cover for coffee?". | asked.
| had a lot to talk to him about what | had found out recently. After thinking about it nonstop and putting two and
two together it was clear my mom and aunt Claire didn't share the sdad. Unless my aunt Claire was a wolf
to? No, | would have found that out by now and Carter wouldn't have kept that from me. Not now, not after
everything else that's happened.
"Kinda busy the now Bear but I'll be done in about an hour?".
Perfect that still gavetto get something to eat.
"Perfect I'll see you then". | ended the call and slipped my phone back into my jacket pocket.
Jake's 10 minutes were almost up. My stomach growled as | got to my feet emptying away the glass of water |
poured.
"Who were you talking to?". He asked joiningin the kitchen. Where was his dad?
"Carter he's coming over in an hour so can we go?".
"Yeah". He nodded. "Is there a reason Carter's coming over?".
| followed him outside and towards his truck. Did there need to be a reason for him to cover?

He made a face. "What do | need to know about?".

"I'm being stupid why am | trying to avoid her she's, my gran. | have to speak to her instead of trying to duck
and dive in the hopes | don't bump into her".
"And you will". He grabbed my hand placing a kiss on my knuckles. "You're not going anywhere and by the looks
