That’s strange, I thought he wasn’t going to say anything to the pack until he actually had something
to tell. My wolf questions.
Maybe news from the Alpha King set him off. We aren’t in the pack house so we aren’t privileged to
that info anymore.
Or he just thinks it’s a good idea to be prepared. I mean, it’s the reason we train pups so early, isn’t
it? She has a point.
I guess we’ll find out tomorrow. Are you sure you’re okay with this? Being away from the guys and
all. You are getting so strong, I don ‘t want the separation to harm you too.
I have a feeling it will be alright and we are still close enough that I can talk to their wolves, they
really aren’t that far away. That’s enough for now. When you all are done being emotional humans
let me know and we’ll set things right.
I just roll my eyes. Goodnight.
Goodnight. Luna Ava said to tell you goodnight as well and your room will always be available and
waiting for you. I just smiled.
We got up early the next day feeling a little better. My stomach is still in knots at the thought of
staying away from the guys, like I’m physically not well, but I push past that so I can focus on getting
out of here. I force myself to eat a few of the protein bars I stashed along with a bottle of water.
Mateo and Oliver stayed by my door last night. They might have even slept against it with how
strong their scents were wafting under it. I will say the scent was calming and I had a calm
dreamless sleep. They get points for perseverance that’s for sure, but I have to keep my mind on
my goal. My goal is to get trained to be the best warrior I can be for my pack I can ‘t let my, as my
wolf calls them, ‘human emotions get in the way of that. I can feel it in my bones, that I need to go
do this, more than I need them by my side at this moment.
I packa bag with a change of clothes so I don’t have to leave the training arena after we are done. I
will just shower and change there, again like old times. As soon as I have everything I will need for
the day, I head out my trusty window, making sure to take a good look around to make sure the
coast is clear. They aren’t stupid and will figure out what Pm doing sooner rather than later. But I will
use my advantage for now.
I know Sierra said I was her priority, but she may think telling the guys I can sneak out would be
helping me. So I am treating everything as if I can only trust myself and my wolf implicitly. We make
it out okay and head toward the diner, Sierra met me outside and we headed to a table in the
complete opposite corner of where the guys normally go. A fact Martha was quick to point out.
“We just needed some girl time and didn ‘t want them hounding us about being here without them.
So we’d rather leave our scents way over here and hope they don ‘t notice if they do come in. Sierra
says easily and I don’t know if Martha buys it or just decides to go with it. She brings everything out
in to go containers and a wink
“Luna Ava gave me a heads up and you have about three minutes to clear out. Enjoy your day
ladies!” She is way too cheerful about this sneaking around thing than she should be.
“Wait! How much do we owe you?” I ask, confused.
“I told you. You eat for free! I haven’t had this much fun in so long. The looks on those boys’ faces
when they think they know wthat’s what and either of you put them in their places is so entertaining,
it’s worth it. Now go out the back I think” She winks again and we laugh as we take off.
When we get to the training arena a note on the outside gate says training has been postponed
today while the warriors are in planning meetings so we head off to find a place to eat our breakfast
in peace while we wait for school to start.
We were not as lucky in our avoidance tactics at school. The guys came and were in all their broody
glory, snapping at anyone who got in their way. They caught up with us and walked wordlessly to
each class we had together and managed, somehow, to be even angrier when they realized that
Sierra was no longer in their classes if I wasn’t. We didn’t approach the subject of why none of us
were talking and I only interacted if and when absolutely required for class.
Sierra and I were leaving English, one of the few classes the guys aren’t in. “I officially hate you for
how smart you are, just so you are aware. How do you even understand what she is saying? It’s
English, it’s not supposed to be that hard.” Sierra groans. “You are going to have to do my
homework for the rest of the year if I stay in that class. I’m pretty sure that one is for seniors.”
I giggle at her, but my amusement doesn’t last long as We walk into the lunchroom. Sam walks
straight to us, but doesn’t make eye contact with me.
