\tWhen I woke up, the most wonderful scent hit my nose. My body creaked as I sat up, and my thigh throbbed, reminding me of everything that had gone down the previous night. Mom had mostly healed my wound, but I could still feel the phantom pain of the injury, which wasn’t unusual for me. However, as the most wonderful scent hit my nose, I ignored the pains and aches in my body and crawled out of bed.

\tI pulled my bedroom door open and was shocked when Harper stood at my door with her hand raised, ready to knock on the door. Despite the early morning, she looked as beautiful as ever as her long, blonde curly locks fell over her shoulders, framing her face.

Her heart was pounding against her chest like crazy, and her skin was like silk beneath my touch. I wanted her more than I had ever wanted anything else in my life, and I just wanted a moment longer with her here, even if we ju

School was one of the few places we weren’t required to have a warrior escort, and I knew it was only because all of the teachers at the school were trained in case of an emergency. Even though eyes were always watching us, school was still a nice break from the pressure of the pack house.
