The Rejected Daughter Of An Alpha novel Chapter 18

"I understand child. Well then, Cassie, was it? It's lovely to meet you. My name is Angie and I suppose I am your grandmother." She says with a smile and an extended hand.

"It's nice to meet you Angie. I'm Cassie." I say with a smile of my own and a handshake.

"How is it that you two are so similar and yet you've never met?" Grandpa asks with an incredulous look on his face. Cole has one that matches. We both roll our eyes and I turn back to her.

"If you would like to speak to my mother, she's currently at her parents house. She's been spending the last couple of days talking to her Father and brother."

"That's wonderful. They deserve to get to know each other again. Where are you staying?" She asks looking like a very professional business women.

"We're staying at the neighboring pack. Our alpha didn't want us to be too close incase that being around Cole hurt. It was the only way he would let us come out, even though mom would have gone without permission, it was just easier to agree." I say with a shrug, my voice taking on a similar tone.

"Your mother was always one for getting her way." She says with a chuckle. We talk or a minute more before they go on their way. I say goodbye to Cole, having gotten what I came here for and head back to the car and to my mates pack.

Cassie's POV

Gah I miss Axe. He had pack business and had to stay behind today so after I finished my meeting with Cole and came back to the pack house, the first thing I did was go to is office. I knocked and he called for me to enter and I saw he was sat with his pack Doctor talking about a few members who would need care after the training they had today.

"Ah, just who I needed to speak to. Cassie, this is our pack Doctor, Remiro. Remiro, this is Cassie. She'll be training the pack members for the rest of her stay. Cassie I wasn't expecting you back so soon. What is it I can help you with?" He says maintaining professionalism. It did not go unnoticed that he said 'our' pack, but to the good doctor, it probably sounded like he was talking about the pack as a whole or maybe talking about himself and the doctor.

"My meeting finished earlier than expected and I wanted to ask you when you would like me to start training. I can come back later if you would like." I say monotonous which is my business voice.

"And you the most handsome." I say showing him the same awe.

"Gah I missed you last night. I didn't sleep all that well. I ended up staying up until I heard you come in. I wanted to go check on you but I didn't want to appear creepy and figured you would be tired." He says looking down, almost in shame.

"You should have come. I would have loved to see you. I was sad that I missed our nightly conversation. I've gotten so used to seeing you that it was odd to try to sleep without it." I say and sit down.

"Can I ask what you had to do?" He says and sits next to me on the couch he has in his office.

"I shouldn't tell you but, I would prefer you knew. I'm a underground fighter and I had a match last night. I've been in it for a long while and at this point there's no way for me to get out. It would be stupid hard to get out unless I had a valid reason." I say with a shrug and lean onto his arm, which he wraps around me.
