“We should definitely do that,” she says, her body shivering against mine.
“Then let’s get some food so we can get to class.”
After class, I change things up by taking Tiana out to the woods and stripping the robe off her before taking her against a tree, on her knees, and then on her back. By the time we returned to the dorms, nearly everyone was asleep, or at least in their rooms for the night. I pulled her into my room and after making her come several more times, I curled up around her, burying my face in her hair and breathing in her scent as I fell asleep.
The next morning, unlike Thursday when we had Sparring class first thing, Tiana and I woke slowly. Without any classes to get to, I took advantage of having her naked body in my bed and pressed against me. Starting my day inside Tiana is one of the best feelings in the world and it set the tone for a fantastic weekend.
I had no idea how much we were both going to need this weekend before hell week broke us.

The weekend with Shane was awesome. We spent time studying, spent time with our friends, and spent time in each other’s arms. I’m not sure what it means, but I’ve felt myself falling in love with Shane. We never talked about the future. We wouldn’t since we’re both underage and can’t recognize the mate bond, but I know Enya felt the pull to Christian before she turned eighteen. I have to wonder if that’s what this is. Something deep inside me really hopes it is. I never considered myself Luna material. I’m much too loud and boisterous for that.

And it started right away.
Nicholas went down first. I’m not sure if they wanted to let all of us know what was coming, or if they thought he’d be easiest to break. Given his insecurities about me and having a leg up because of my family, they used Nicholas’ misogynistic tendencies against him, even identifying that Cassie, who wasn’t an Alpha heir, got farther on her first shot on The Beast than he did.
Justin was next. They have obviously done their research on the young Alphas, and they knew

that his pack was in trouble. They used that against him, basically challenging him and asking what he could possibly do with his life if his pack fell into ruin. Since I know that fear already weighs heavy on him, it didn’t take too long to break him either.
They didn’t come for me or Shane during warrior training. One part of me was thankful for that, but another part dreaded what was coming. It made the rest of us nervous, knowing that our time. was coming, and we might not even see before it happened.
Mine came in Alpha Ezra’s class. He’d gone through the list of people who scored highly on the test, Cassic, Cole, and Shane included. When it had come to me, he’d looked me dead in the сус
“C minus. How utterly disappointing. Average doesn’t get you on the leaderboard, Sebastiana.”
