Cassi took a deep breath, letting the ocean air fill her lungs and nose. It was another warm morning, hitting 85 at 8:15. She leaned against the railing of the boardwalk. She didn't have to go to work until 11, and Bradin was sleeping for the first time in weeks so she took the opportunity to walk along the pier. She thought she heard someone behind her, but when she turned around she saw nothing but random people coming in and out of the shops. She closed her eyes and took another deep breath. The scent of the salt fill her nose. It mixed with something she realized, something she knew, a familiar smell… She opened her eyes and turned and looked into bright blue eyes, eyes she'd prayed she'd never have to see again "Nate?" she whispered


Nikki woke up early to the sound of rocks hitting her window. She climbed out of bed and saw Allie. "Its like 8am Al" she whispered out the window "Normal people sleep at this time!"

Allie laughed "Yeah, and we're not normal. Come on, the boys are going to meet us at Spanish Cove for some swimming, we're going to be late, lets go"

Nikki grumbled and got dressed into a bikini with a white terrycloth skirt. She left a note on the kitchen table and ran out the back door to where Allie was standing. "What's going on?" she grumbled "This is getting too intense too fast Allie. I like Brice, but he's all over me all the time, and TJ cant stay more than 2 feet away from you"

Allie shrugged "Take what you can get Nikki" she said "And the rest, we'll just have to work on" The two girls walked down the beach towards Spanish Cove. As they got closer, they noticed the bodies of several guys "I thought you said just our guys were coming" she whispered

Allie looked a little nervous "I thought that's what was happening" she whispered back "TJ said they wanted to meet us and have fun"

They walked towards the guys. The closer they got, they realized there was many more than 2 guys. Nikki did a quick headcount. 12? How can there be 12 guys here? She asked herself This doesn't make any sense. She grabbed Allie's hand "I have a really bad feeling about this" she said "Really bad"

Allie tried to be brave, but inside she knew this wasn't right. "It'll be cool" she said. They approached the guys.

A crooked smile came across TJ's face. "Look, our girls are here" he said, smirking. "Just in time" 5 guys went and grabbed each girl "Let's have some fun" he said, motioning everyone into a deep cave, far away from everyone and everything. So far that no one would hear them.


Cassi's whole body tensed up "Oh my God, Nate, what are you doing here?" she asked, nearly shaking

Nathan just smiled "I'm back. I didn't like Arizona. It was too desolate for me, so I came home… We came home" As he said those words, all the guys from her experiences from The Order walked around her. "We came to see our baby"

Cassi froze. She was surrounded by everyone she had been with. She barely recognized some of them, Matt Erik and Adam had grown up so much. She reasoned they were between 22-24. "Hi" she whimpered as they got closer

Nathan smiled "So I went to see Robby our new head, and he said you weren't there anymore… that you said you had emotional problems that were interfering with doing your job" Cassi bit her lip and nodded "Well, that's interesting. Because I know you don't have any" he said

Cassi looked at all the faces glaring at her "I do. I cant deal with this" she said, pushing them away from her. She went and sat on a bench across the boardwalk and took a deep breath. Her worst nightmare was coming true.

Nathan and Matt walked over to her. Nate pushed up her chin while Matt sat next to her "Cass lovey" he said, taking her hand "Nate and I have been talking, a lot over the past few months…"

She swallowed hard "And?" she asked quietly

"We want to share you" Nate said. "You were a big part of both of our lives. It was so hard to leave you, so we came back. And we're taking you back. You had an obligation to us, and we want you to fulfill it"

Cassi looked into Nathan's eyes "I have a boyfriend Nate. I got out of the Order months ago" she stood up "You cant treat me like this. I'm a real person. I'm not doing this anymore!" She sighed "Im sorry, none of you can 'have' me anymore. I'm not your whore anymore. I've got to go" she walked away and pulled out her cell phone when she felt a hand whip her around. She looked into Nathan's eyes. She didn't have time to react before his lips were on hers. She tried to break away, but he had put his other hand behind her head, forcing her to keep her lips on his. Tears started to appear in her eyes. She struggled to get away, but it did nothing. No matter what she did, he held her and kissed her, the more she fought, the harder it got.

When Nate finally pulled away he smiled. "I remember your kisses" he said "They're amazing" He snapped his fingers and Rory and Jake came and picked her up. Cassi panicked, but before she could scream, Nate had his hand over her mouth "Say anything or make any noise, and I'll be bad" he warned "and that's a promise"

She whimpered a little but just let them carry her away. She was scared out her mind that she was just going back to where she started from, that she was getting literally dragged back into the life she had tried so hard to escape from, the life she so desperately wanted to forget. As they brought her into a cave tears fell from her face. "Please no" she said as they laid her down on the cool sand "Please Nate, baby, please. Please no"

Nathan looked at her and kneeled down next to her. He snapped again and everyone left the cave "It's ok Cass" he said, pushing her so she was lying flat on the sand "I wont hurt you too much"


AN: Hi guys. I finally updated this story after i think it was like 2/3 months? Sorry for those who were waiting, or were kinda waiting. I've run out of ideas, so the story's going to be ending really quickly. Review if you want me to still write... if i dont get any reviews, i'll assume no one's reading it and i should just end it in a quick chapter. Thanks :o)
