It might’ve done me well to go out to the woods to get myself together, but I didn’t. Instead, I lay in my bed, staring at the ceiling, until I decided to go to sleep. I hadn’t heard Sam or Ben come back into the house, and not long after I closed my eyes, I heard their howls, along with a few others, fill the night air.Despite my unsettled thoughts, I m

For the next few weeks, I spent a lot of time in the forest, trying to figure out whether or not Sam’s concern that I had imprinted on Ben, and he on me, was true. While I felt more at peace when I was in the forest, more empowered, I didn’t feel like this was something the forest wanted me to be concerned with at the moment. She continued to steer me in the direction of enlarging the house, growing the pack, and forcing Verina out of the woods.

After a dinner of stew, which Raven had put on hours ago, with plenty for all of us, including our visitors, When we were all done, and the dishes were clear, we gathered in the living room. I was hopeful Everly and Ronin would tell us about my dad. Over dinner, they’d chatted about how they spent most of their time traveling in their wolf forms from forest to forest, never staying in any one place very long. They said there were a few other members of their pack still out there, but not many, and most had given up on their wolves long ago, trying to blend into regular society.

Work on the house began a few days before school started. The extension was being added on near Ben and Joshua’s room. I told them they could stay in Grandma’s room for a while if they wanted to, but instead, they moved into the living room because they didn’t think I really meant it when I said they could have her room. I probably didn’t. I hoped the workers would at least get the part of the house that required the exterior wall of the dining room to be replaced by a sheet of plastic done soon because I wanted the guys to have their privacy back. Not that it was exactly private when they had to share a room anyway, but it was better than having them camped ou

Ben was in my third period English class, which was great. If there were any creeps in there, I hadn’t met them yet. Fourth period, I had choir. Raven was with me, but she is an alto, and I’m a soprano, so we couldn’t sit next to each other. One of the Parkers was in there, too. I have no idea which one, but I know he’s a Parker because he looks just like Brice and Billy, just not as old as them, and maybe not as angry at the world. The fact that he was laughing and carrying on with a couple of other guys makes me think they are probably dark wolves, too.
