Harper and her mom arrive at Bunny Hill as the former stands in front of the lodge with a hand on her suitcase. Time to find out who my mate is. She takes a step forward as two cars pull up to the lodge's front entrance.

The Phoenix swivels her head around sharply and merely smiles.

"Harper! Hey!" Alina waves as she jumps out of the car while a brunette with blonde highlights hands the werewolf her suitcase.

"Hi Alina. Guys." Harper nods her head a bit to the others when they hop out too.

"Hiya Harper!" Forest comments loudly then giggles. "This is going to be so much fun! Am I right?"

"Oh, yeah. Real fun." the females hear a sarcastic response come from Harper's crush.

He walks ahead of them, tossing a hard glare at Alina when he passes her. She growls quietly and huffs. Alina grabs her suitcase and storms in.

"What's their deal?" Max asks aloud.

Let's see, Blade's adopted and is probably mad at her, I'm not sure. But, Harper couldn't just say that for she doesn't know if they even are aware of it. She guesses, they aren't.

"Eh, they probably didn't want to be here." Nathan says. "I wouldn't either from what my mom told me."

"Remember kids, don't do anything too crazy and definitely, for the love of Irene, do not force drama all over again!" Zane shouts. "It would be a nightmare if that happened again."

"We'll try not to, Dad. Though, I can't exactly guarantee it." Nico shrugs his shoulders lightly.

"Why don't you kids go find your room and we'll meet you inside." Nana tells the group of teenagers.

"Sounds good, Mom! Come on guys!" Nico shouts. "Race you in!"

Max immediately darts in after Nico runs inside. Forest sighs as she and Harper walk in.

Nathan trails behind the two girls then stops abruptly. "I take it Max and Nico are sharing a room?" he snorts.

"Looks like it." Forest replies as the werewolf and meif'wa in question run past the four.

"Forest, want to share with me?" Nathan asks the witch.

She merely grins. "Definitely, handsome." she comments and turns to face Harper. "What about you? Who are you sharing with?"

"I don't know." Harper says. "But whoever I end up with as my roommate, better not be bitchy."

(TEN MINUTES LATER)

Zane wheels the last bit of luggage into the lodge as Nana collapses on a nearby chair.

"Finally! We're done, Zane." she murmurs.

She makes a move to close her eyes for a few minutes but before the meif'wa even can, someone comes walking down the stairs holding a hand to their temples.

The person clenches their eyes close then almost sways in place before Zane guides him to a seat beside Nana.

"Blade, what happened?" Nana whispers. "You look awful."

"I don't know. All I did was bring my suitcase up to a room then this sudden wave of dizziness hit me." Blade mumbles.

The meif'wa sighs and turns her head to glance at Zane. "Maybe it will go away?" she says.

"Hopefully." Zane replies. "If it doesn't, I'll call your parents."

Blade looks down. Right, my adoptive parents. "I'm sure it'll pass." he mutters then stands up. "Forget I said anything."

He turns on his heels and walks up the stairs. His left hand rests on the room's door as it stays there for minutes.

"What are you waiting for?" a voice calls out. "You have your hand on the doorknob like you're waiting for something."

He fixes his golden eyes up at the person then snorts. "I'm not waiting. Je pensais t'avoir dit de me laisser tranquille. Quelle partie de cela n'avez-vous pas compris ?" he finds himself blinking after he's done.

"What?" Alina asks in a confused state. "That wasn't English."

"I know it's not anglaise." Blade snaps.

Alina swivels her body so she can head down the stairs but before she does, she throws a frown at Blade. "You better be careful. Nobody in my family even knows that language. If you start speaking in it; others will know you're adopted." she tells him.

"Fine." Blade mutters as his adopted sister smiles.

"For the record big bro, we all care about you. My parents, our friends. Harper. Everyone." she grins. "Don't you ever forget that."

The Ultima werewolf shakes his head and smiles. "I won't." he whispers.

(RACHEL)

"Alright! Three days ago, we introduced Mother to our brother." Rachel announces. "Yet, that didn't exactly go as planned."

"No really? I thought it went fabulous!" Dawson snorts with sarcasm. "Duh, Sherlock."

"Not to mention the redhead that was practically glued to his side." Zeiden mumbles as he throws a crumb of popcorn at Dawson's head.

She swallows the crumb then turns to Rachel. "What's the plan now?" she says.

Rachel sighs. "I don't know." she replies and collapses in a heap on a chair.

"I brought snacks!" her and Zeiden's mother declares loudly as she sets a tray full of cookies down on the table.

"Thanks, Mom." Zeiden smiles while he quickly snatches three.

Dawson glances side to side before she grabs five cookies, stuffing another cookie in her mouth. "What? It's free cookies!"

Zeiden shakes his head. "Dork." he mutters.

"We need some sort of a plan!" Rachel whines. "I don't suppose you have any ideas, Mother?"

"Why exactly are you after your brother?" Isabelle asks as she raises an eyebrow.

"Because! Because, he's family. Granted, he's adopted like me but he still is family by blood. We look out for each other. Though, from what I saw; he doesn't even remember you and Father! So who knows what he's aware of." the young brunette explains.

(THE PACK)

Alina walks down the stairs and plants herself on a comfy chair. Zianna takes a seat on the floor in front of her while Harper sits on the couch with Forest and Nico beside her.

Nathan is leaning his head on Forest's leg, fast asleep. The female werewolf smirks; Forest and Nathan, ship. She turns her eyes to her cousin, who is practically glued to his phone.

"I have an idea! Let's play two truths and a lie! Anyone want to start?" Nico calls out. "Anyone?"

"I will! One; I hate flirting. Two; I love hot guys. Three; I have a boyfriend." Destiny butts in.

Alina snorts. "Your lie is one. You love flirting." she says.

"Wait, who's your boyfriend?" Forest raises an eyebrow in confusion.

"My crush, duh." Destiny replies.

Her crush comes walking down the stairs growling at her. "I'd rather go to hell than be your boyfriend, Destiny." Blade snaps.

The only one I would date is Harper. But there's no way she likes me back.

Harper moves a hand to her mouth to cover up a soft giggle. She watches as he moves to sit down on the floor in front of her. Blade tilts his head up to look at her.

"This is okay with you, right?" he mumbles.

The Phoenix hides a sudden blush forming on her cheeks. "O..oh, yeah. It's all good" she leans back a bit.

"Okay." Nico hisses at Destiny then turns to glance at Harper. "Moving on! Harper, you want to go?"

"Oh sure." the redhead whispers.
