It doesn’t take me long to get home. Dad isn’t here, and I’m not sure where Aida is. I

search the living room and kitchen, but she isn’t there. I head upstairs to see if she’s in

her room, and I find her door locked. We don’t usually lock our doors. Being twins, we

don’t hide much of anything from each other.

I knock on the door, but there is no answer. I wait a bit and put my ear to the door to see if

I can hear anything. I hear what I think is some shuffling, so I knock on the door again. The

doorknob jiggles, and the door opens slightly. “What’s up, Adela?” Aida looks a bit

flustered and slightly out of breath. I try to look into the room, but that prompts Aida to

squeeze through the door and close it shut behind her.

“Uh….how are you?”

“I’m doing okay, I guess. I’d imagine that’s not what you came to talk to me about.” I tell

Aida all about the talk I had with the Luna and about Jenna. Aida says nothing while I relay

everything, and when I finish, we share a deep silence. “Well, if that’s it…….” Aida turns to

her door, but I grab her arm to stop her.

“What the hell is going on with you? Did you hear anything I said? Luna Kimberly is not

backing us anymore. She has her eyes set on this Jenna b***h and wants us to compete

with her. Do you not see a problem with that?” Aida sighs and turns to face me.

“Of course that’s a problem, but what can we do about it? We can either go with what she

wants or walk away. To be honest, I really don’t have time for this right now. Whatever you

want to do is fine with me.”

“Damnit, Aida! What has gotten into you? Ever since you and Lincoln had that talk, you’ve

been different. You came home crying your eyes out, and then you have just been…..gone.

Now it’s like you don’t care what happens, but I find that hard to believe. You are the same

person who has been hopelessly in love with Lincoln for years. I don’t believe that you all

of a sudden no longer care.” Aida looks at me but says nothing. I can’t even feel her

through our bond. It’s as if she has shut it down on her end because nothing is coming

out. I sigh and take a step back. “Whatever, Aida. I don’t know what’s going on with you,

but when you are over it just let me know.”

I turn toward my room. “Whatever you decide, I got you.” I don’t respond because there is

nothing to say. Something is seriously wrong with my sister.

~Lincoln~

Landon and I have been a mess these past few hours. We don’t know where Tia is or if she

is even coming back. I’m not sure I can take over this pack without her by my side. I know

that the pack needs Landon and me and is looking for us to take over, but without Tia,

what’s the point?

Landon has said few words, and I’ve been the same. Both of us are terrified that Tia will

take off or that she will request to leave and not come back. Neither scenario is one that

we want to come to fruition. If we could just sit down and talk, I think we could find

common ground.

I try to keep occupied by planning what would need to happen to our bedrooms. Landon

and I have a connecting door between our rooms, but that still doesn’t make it the room

for the three of us. I think everything needs to be extended. I feel stupid thinking about

such trivial matters, but it’s all I can do to keep my cool.

The bedroom door opens, and my head shoots to the door. Landon is on his feet in no

time. Tia walks through the door, and I swear my heart is practically beating out of my

chest. I have missed laying my eyes on this beautiful woman. You would think that we

have been apart for years and not just hours.

“We should talk,” Tia says with a tone of finality. I look at Landon, who is looking at me.

“You two should sit.” I can feel my knees getting weak, but taking a seat is the last thing I

want to do. “I can’t do this. I have to worry about my sisters, father, Luna Kimberly, and

now this Jenna character is here to try to get rid of me, I guess. I just can’t do this.”

I can feel tears start to build in my eyes. This is exactly what I didn’t want to happen. Tia

will leave us, and I’m not sure how we will be able to survive. “If I am to stay, I need to do

so on my terms. I need to be comfortable here, and that means saying and doing

whatever I feel is necessary, Luna-to-be or not.” I look at Landon, wondering if he knows

what that means, but he looks just as confused as I am. I look back at Tia and wait for

more. “I will need to tap into another side of ‘Tia’, and I need you two to be supportive. If

there is any issue in the way I handle things and people, I will insist on leaving this place.”

“Does that mean you’re staying?” I love when Landon comes in with the needed

questions. I don’t care anything about what Tia does or says or how she handles anything.

I just need to know that she will be here. I need to know that she will continue to stand by

my side through all of this mess and more.

Tia sighs and walks over to us. “Yes, I will stay. I can’t imagine being away from the two of

you.” Landon reaches for her first, and she pulls back a bit. “Just remember, I need to do

this how I see fit. If it becomes an issue, I will go.” Landon and I both nod in agreement.

Landon wraps her up in his arms while I stroke her hand between mine. I missed the

sparks that come from our touch.

“Tia,” she looks at me while she is wrapped in Landon’s arms. “I don’t care what you do

around here, I just want you around. You can do whatever you feel is necessary and if that

isn’t enough, then you can let us know. We…..I love you, Tia.”
