“I know you are right, I’m just not sure how to go about it.”
“I can’t tell you that. Only you can find it and you have to look deep within yourself.” Jacob
let me go and took a few steps back.
“I think I am going to go meet Cassie for brunch now.” I said after al
moment.
“Good. Enjoy some food and relax a little. It is going to be a nice day today.” Jacob walked
me over to the door and opened it. Kris and Colt
were no where to be found.
“Thank you, Jacob.” I said before he closed the door.
“Of course, Luna.” He said before he closed it and I started walking to the garden.
Different people were walking around. Soome said hello and others were running like they
were late for something.

sitting with her back turned towards me and drinking what smelled like lemonade.
“Hello.” I said as I walked around her.
“Penelope! I am so glad you came.” Cassie smiled warmly at me.
“Please, call me Penny.” I said as I took my own lemonade and too a
sip.
“Of course.” Cassie smiled at me as fruits got brought out with different sandwich options.
A cold noodle pasta and yogurt finished it
off.
“Can I get anyone anything else?” The server was someone that got brought over from the
other pack and I hadn’t learned her name yet.

“I’m good, thank you. This looks delicious.” I said as I smiled at her.
“I’m good as well, thank you.” Cassie said. The girl bowed and walked
away.
“Thank you for coming. We haven’t had the chance to actually sit down and talk.”
“Things have really been crazy lately. Isn’t today your move in day?” I asked, suddenly
remembering.
“It is. I am planning on doing that after this. I was hoping we would have been able to talk
more before I moved but I’m just thankful to be here.”
“Of course. That was my intention but I will admit I have been
struggling with it.” Grabbing some fruit, I put them on my plate and
took a sandwich. Cassie followed me.
“Can you tell me what’s bothering you?” Cassie asked.
“I don’t honestly know. My entire life I assumed you and Zac were dead. Of course I always
dreamed of meeting you and knowing who you were but I knew that was just a fantasy.
Now that you are
actually here, I am finding myself feeling more angry. M entally, I know I had a way better

never once did Zac try to reach out to me or you. I want to be selfish and say you could
have paid a guard or something to send me something but I know that isn’t realistic
either.”
“If I could go back in time, I would have just taken you and ran with Zac. Honestly, I
thought about it over and over again. Everyday I laid in that cell, my mind went to what ifs
and eventually I had to forgive myself or I would have drove myself crazy. Seeing you…

years in a cell. If we ran and we got caught, you would have
