Tears brimmed my eyes at his words. | hated disappointing them, but at the stime, | hated
Pollux treatedthe way he did. "I'm sorry, but Pollux treatslike shit, so I give it right back to
him. I can't let them seeweak." "Weak? Cassie, you're not weak."
Talon wasn't pleased with my reference to being weak. He was one of the strongest men in the
pack, and being a warrior and protector was everything to him. He had trainedhimself, and so
they are terrified of me. They always have been, and now, with Pollux flipping his wig onabout
sbullshit, they think I'm a whore too."
Anger flashed through both of my father's eyes as low growls of disapproval echoed from their
throats. "What are you talking about?" Hale asked.
"James didn't tell you?" A scoff left my throat as | cast my eyes down. "Pollux' stupid girlfriend told
him | supposedly was messing around with Lucas Vega, which isn't true and so he confrontedin
the hallway at school and calleda whore, accusingof sleeping around. That's what started
the whole fight."
I wasn't seeking pity from my dads, but what I did want was for Pollux to receive punishment if |

Talon stood to his feet, pacing the room as he rubbed the back of his neck. He was who | was really worried

existed.
"Cassie, | know that you're going to be eighteen this weekend and with you getting older you're going to be
interested in boys and... Stuff..."
Was he really going to try and do the talk?
"Oh my god, dad, please, no. We don't have to have this conversation."
"Look, Cassie, it's just as bad for us as it is for you" Hale's laughter cut Talon off as he stared between Hale and I,
absolutely confused. "What's so funny?"
"Talon..." Hale said, taking a moment to catch his breath. "You're like two years too late."
A shocked and horrified expression crossed Talon's face as it paled, his mouth dropping open. It hurt because
had known for so long he had seenas his little princess and he didn't want that to change.
"Is this true, Cassie?" Talon whispered. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Dad, none of that matters, and it isn't important right now. Look, school is almost over and | only have a week
left and then | will be out of here and headed off to college."
Talon and Hale looked at each other in confusion at my response. | know the old tale about us having to go to the
land of the gods, but that was just a silly story. There was no way my parents would subjectto something like
that.
"Cassie, you're not going off to college. You know what's happening this weekend."
Hale gavea concerned glance as the study door opened, and my mother walked in with a glass
of wine in hand. "Oh, you guys are still talking?"
