Victoria's pov

"Yea thanks it's great...No problem, I'll send it directly to your accounts... Thanks, bye".

I ended the call and peered around my living room in awe once again. Those people really did a good job, I felt like I was standing in a brand new house.

Yesterday I got a call that my house was finally done, termite free and all. Luka wanted me to wait until he's back from his two day Alpha meeting in the Truemoon Pack, but I just couldn't wait.

I snapped a quick pic and sent it to him. It was nine in the morning so he was probably in a meeting, but I couldn't help myself.

The house looked great. It made me want to move back in and relish in all its beauty. I didn't get to visit all the rooms, but the few I saw were enough to convince me that I didn't waste my money.

*Couldn't wait till I got home, I see*

I smiled at his text and got ready to answer, but another one came in right after.

*I guess you really were eager to see it. Since you got out of bed early today*

I rolled my eyes at his accusation. Yes I know I wasn't really a morning person but...but.

Whatever.

*I couldn't sleep without you :(*

That much was true. He left yesterday morning, and I twisted and turned all night. I just got too used to sleeping with him.

*Me either. But don't you worry Angel I'll be home tonight *

My heart leaped in joy at that. Yes it has only been like twenty-four hours, but I missed him a lot.

My phone beep-beeped, and Emma's name flashed across the screen. As soon as I answered, she was telling me to get home ASAP. The panic in her voice got my concern spiked, so I quickly closed up and drove as fast as I could back to the pack.

I dashed through the trees like someone was hot on my tail, almost running over a border patroller in the process. Without even turning my engine off, I ran inside at full speed once I got home.

However to my surprise, Zoey and Daisy were comfortably tucked into the living room couch watching television. I thought

My confusion was obvious, but I didn't bother their heads with it. The house was unusually quiet except for the cartoon Zoey was watching, but something didn't seem right.

Maybe it was just my paranoia, and maybe Em just had some fashion emergency as usual. But she actually sounded scared, and that's unusual for her.

The minute I knocked on her bedroom door, she yanked it open and me after, not even bothering to close it as she started rambling apologies.

"Victoria I'm so so sorry I didn't know that things would have turned out this way. But she said she would fix it and since it's been months I just assumed and now I'm just so scared and Luka will probably kick me out of the house and the pack and-"

"Emma!" I shook her shoulders to get her attention and peered at her confused. "Slowly, tell me what happened "

She watched me for about a whole sixty seconds, but when she started crying, I knew something really bad must've happened.

"When you came " she paused and made eye contact with me. "When you came, mom wanted you gone "

"I know that, but why are you crying? " I asked eagerly. She was really scaring me now.

"She was only trying to protect us, she didn't know that things would've turned out this way"

I was getting really impatient so I shook her again with each word.
