Chapter 231
The twins each wrote a separate letter, but had similar sentiments to the rest. Dakota said that |
didn’t need to go to these extremes to get my point across and that he hopes they can find a reason
to see me before they go home for the school year. Cameron said he understands now what | was
saying all along and apologized for letting his own feelings cloud his judgment in seeing what was
truly best for me.
They all begged me to forgive them and to get something back to them soon. They are relying on
our mutual connection to Xander to make that happen. | just don’t know how to get anything to them
after next week. | have no other plans to see Xander beyond the Elder’s Conference, but | guess
Xander can do whatever he wants as royalty so who knows.
| just giggled and decided | would write to them once | got my work done and ready to go. Just
because Audrina was semi-normal today doesn’t mean that act will last. | have to assume she is
going to make me do extra training at every possible free moment, just to be a pain in my ass. She
knows I’m in school and was told of my study schedule, but that hasn’t stopped her before.
| finish everything that is due this week and start anything | can based on the syllabus for the next
two weeks, then | write one letter to the guys, they can freaking share. | let them know that | am
safe and all healed. Training is going well, but tough and | love it. | let them know I am in school and
get to see Sierra a couple times a week. | leave out anything to do with Xander, | don’t know how
much he told them and what | can actually say. | am treating this whole thing like a protection detail,
which is all it can be, and | don’t know if | can say anything about attending with Xander. | also say
nothing about Audrina. | don’t need them worried about a repeat of the situation | left. They need to
trust me here and let me be.
The rest of the week plays out just like last week. Early morning training feels just like what | did
back home and | fall into a great rhythm with the team. We all contribute to the plans, there really is
not a single leader, no matter how much Audrina wants to pretend there is. We all have our
strengths and get to show them off on almost a daily basis.
School is actually enjoyable when I’m not looking over my shoulder for a threat the whole time. | do
find myself flying through classes, even the advanced or senior level classes, but it’s more because
| enjoy what | am learning and want to know more. | almost wish there were more hours in the day
so | could do full time school and full time training, but there is NO way.
Saturday finally rolls around and | find myself a little nervous while I’m waiting for Barty to pick me
up to go to the castle.
The part that I’m attending doesn’t even start until 8 or 9 tonight, but | was told to be ready to go at
6am. | have no idea what | am going to do the whole day, but when the Luna Queen says be ready,
you are ready.
