Five hundred and eighty-two miles, or roughly nine and a half hours – that's how far it is from Aria's old home in Ohio to her new home in Tennessee. That's how far she has to go until she'll be in the same town as her mother – the woman who abandoned her at birth to start her new life with her new family. Is she angry? Hell yes, she is, and sleeping on the news didn't help to squelch her anger at all; if anything, it made it worse. Every time she closed her eyes last night, she saw her mother raising her three boys – Aria's brothers. She bandaged their scrapes, made them cookies, kissed them goodnight, and soothed them when they were crying. Aria bet they were raised to know about their wolf side; they weren't left to struggle with a part of them they never knew existed – like her!
