“Punch Wendy.” I screamed as she tapped her hand against any glove, and I wanted to growl my frustration. Well, frustration was an understatement. I was pissed. Rowan’s words still ricochetted in my mind. ‘I’ll court these women and see what I can find.‘ He was mine…. the thought still bounced in my mind. He was mine.
You are oddly territorial over a man that isn’t our mate. Megan pointed out but Nix stayed silent. She had been silent since Rowan left last night.
Why are you so quiet? I asked as I focused on Wendy’s attempt at a combination. She was getting better. I cracked a smile when she landed the last punch.
“Good job Wendy.” She panted as she grinned.
“Thank you.” She panted as she caught her breath. “I’ve been practising at home.”
“I can tell. Go grab a drink.” I pointed to the sideline and turned my attention back to Nix, but all I got was her tail disappearing into the trees,
What is going on with her? I asked Megan, who got to her feet.
I think she is trying to figure everything out. Megan followed Nix into the darkness, leaving me alone with my thoughts.
What the heck does she have to figure out? I shook my head and promised them I would go running the next day. I waited for their reply, but nothing came, just silence. This was the first time since I turned the age where Nix talked to me that my mind has ever been this silent. This felt wrong. Something was wrong.
“Earth to Amy.” I snapped back to Hanna standing in front of me, waving her hands. “I
“Hello?”
“Holy goddess, you scared the shit out of me.” I jumped back and laughed, doubling over and catching my breath. “Yeah. Hanna. What’s up?”
She giggled and shook her head. “Where were you off in that head of yours?” I just smiled and stood. “We were heading to the caff for breakfast before class. We called you out. You were zoned out. Did you want to come?”
“Yeah.” I held up my finger and trotted over to where I had my stuff, and grabbed it. Slipping my sweater over my head and slinging my bag on my shoulder, U hurried up and caught up to everyone else. 1
“What were you thinking about?” Toya looked at me, and I saw a glint of something in her eye. I quickly scanned the hallway and saw that Vince and Brandon were off in a doorway.
“My dad.”
I let my voice catch. “I was thinking about my dad.” I answered, my voice soft but still loud enough for them to hear me. I saw the two men smirk a little and then turn away. I wanted to attack them. Their only saving grace was my father was still alive. But they didn’t know that and they both enjoyed my pain. My brain froze as I thought about it again. They both enjoyed my pain.
The two of them, Vince and Brandon.
I thought it was just Vince who was pulling the strings, but Brandon, my despicable mate, seemed to be involved too. I felt a mourning howl from deep inside and I sent a wave of love back to Megan. She was still hurting and since she hadn’t been able to reject him yet, Brandon was still her mate.
Fuck.
How were
were we supposed to let him get close if he was still our mate?
That was something I would figure out later. I returned my focus back to Toya. “Yeah.” She gave a sad smile, and she grabbed my arm and pulled me along. “I think about my dad a lot, too.” I sniffled a little for added dramatics,

but then we were out of earshot and I wanted to growl.
“I’m starving.” Micca’s voice pulled me back to the present I found my mind was wondering more today than was normal, and 1 shook it off, 1
“Me too.” Everyone agreed.
“It’s the workout. You are training your body and your wolves to be stronger, and that needs more fuel.” I patted her head as I walked by. “Have your moving requests been proved yet?” I grabbed my tray and waited in line.
“What?” Wendy shook out her hair.
“Today is the reassignment day, isn’t it?” I pulled out my phone and wiggled it. “You all put in the request to move into the apartment. I know that most of the apartments are now furnished. Sterling has been working half the night just bringing stuff up to the places.” They all froze for a second before they all pulled out their phones.
I kept everyone moving as they all scrambled to their emails. “Where is it?” Hanna whispered.
The speaker crackled in the caff. “Good morning students. The emails regarding reassignment were just sent out. You should receive them in a minute.” Wendy’s mother’s voice was sweet over the speaker. “Good luck and have a great day.”
