Enemies Become Mates novel Chapter 32

"Well I'm fine so no need to worry, you can go home now. See you at school...in like two days I'm still healing. But I'm fine I swear. Bye!" I closed the door on him and I leaned back against the door. I slapped my face, why am I'm acting idiotic for? Am I going insane?

I ran my hand through my face and I looked up to see my mom just standing there with a shocked face. I can't believe my mom just saw me act like that.

"You didn't see that ok." I said.

"Whatever my child." She laughed out.

I was standing in front of my locker in a daze, I was just thinking. I was thinking about a lot of things. For example Elliot, he was in my head too much these days and I don't exactly like that at all. It's bothering me a lot, almost like a little fly buzzing around my head.

"Looks who's back." I rolled my eyes and I glanced to the side to see Veronica standing next to me.

"Wow first day back and I'm hearing voices." I said looking past her. She scoffed and poked my shoulder.

"You think I haven't thought about getting you back Cassie." She threatened.

I put on a fake terrified face and clasped my hands together. Oh what the great Veronica could possibly do to scare me? I'm itching to know what kind of revenge she is plotting now. I closed my locker and smiled at her.

"Well what is it that could shiver my timbers?" I cocked an eyebrow.

"I've been in contact with an old friend of mines. He's a very special person actually, he's actually moving back here." Veronica had this evil glint in her eyes and I just shrugged my shoulder.

"Oh tell him I said hello, I have to go now since class is starting." I waved at her lazily and started to walk away from her.

"I'll tell Ace you said hello then." I stopped dead in my tracks and faced her. She had a smirk on her face.

I walked back towards her and read her expression. I can't tell if she's kidding or not. However if that person I do have to take the very serious. I was inches away from her face and gave her a deadly look.

"Pulled a nerve?" She smirked.

"Why is he back? He's not allowed on my father's land?" I asked her.

"He's no one you need to be concerned with." I said firmly.

"Well he's obviously someone if he can make you so shaken and quite frankly you're never shaken." He said softly.

"It really isn't nothing I swear." I said and try walking past him. He grabbed onto my arm stopping me and I glared up at him.

"Just tell me Cassie." Elliot said.

"It's nothing ok! Juts let me go." I pulled my arm back and he look like he was about to reach out towards me. He stopped himself and he nodded his head.

"I'm just trying to help that's all." He muttered. Now I felt bad because I was being an absolute ass right now.

"I'm sorry just give me some time ok. I just need to think, I'm fine." I lied and he didn't look like believed it at all.

Before he can even say anything I walked away. I need to find Toby and Jay, I have to talk to them about this. I started to piece things together now, the hunter situation and now Ace is here. Something is not right, it's too much of a coincidence right now. I grabbed my phone ready to send them a text message. My heart stopped momentarily when I saw an incoming call from Toby. I answered and I heard Jay yelling in the background.
