Helene "Ouch!" I flinched in pain as Hunter applied ointment to the injury on my arm. "Stop being such a baby and deal with it!" he hissed, and I threw him an irritated glare. "And you should stop trying to worsen my pain, idiot. Didn't they ever teach you how to be gentle with women?" I fired at him angrily. He scoffed. "Oh, trust me, baby girl, I am extremely gentle with women, but with you? Never going to happen!" He retorted, applying the ointment even more aggressively and causing me to flinch even more. "Okay, that's it! Thanks for your help, but I'll take it from here," I snapped, snatching the ointment from him and proceeding to apply it myself. "Suit yourself, kid," he said nonchalantly, and I stared back at him with intense disgust. "What's with that look? You're the one who took it away from me," he added defensively, and my glaring only intensified. "Stop calling me a kid already, you douche!" I growled at him with a furious look on my face. I was genuinely sick and

Helene "I want an apology from both of you, and I want it now!" I demanded sternly, with both my arms crossed around my chest. "Who? Me? You want me to apologize to you?" Mia asked, and I threw her a dirty look. "I believe I just made it clear that I want you two to apologize to me, so yes, Mia, you're included," I responded snappily. Owen and Mia were in my room for about fifteen and ten minutes, respectively, but I refused to talk to either one of them until they apologized to me. "You keep telling us to apologize to you, but you still haven't told us why we need to apologize. Am I supposed to just render an apology when I have no idea what my offense is?" Mia asked. I sighed. "Well, you should think back and try to think for yourself about what exactly you could have done or said to me that's making me demand an apology from you," I retorted, confusing her even more. I wasn't going to tell them what exactly I was upset about because I needed them to figure it out on their ow

Hunter "Can you slow down and stop walking so quickly?" Helene yelled from behind me. "I'm not walking quickly; you're just too slow," I said, not bothering to slow down my pace. "Isn't this supposed to be a stroll? If you're taking me for a tour, you need to slow down and let me at least get the chance to know where I am and take a proper look around," she hissed, and I could tell by how heavy her breathing was that she was finding it very difficult to keep up with me, which was weird since she wasn't exactly short and I wasn't expecting her to be so slow.I halted in my tracks before turning to face her, and as soon as I saw how she looked, I burst out laughing without even realizing it. "We haven't even gone that far yet, and you're already looking like you walked a thousand miles? Are you that lazy?" I questioned, genuinely surprised that she'd look so breathless and tired.She had her back bent with her hands resting on her knee, and she was sweating a lot more than I expect

Helene "You know, you should be thanking me instead of hitting me," Dre said, causing my frown to deepen, and I scoffed. "Are you out of your damn mind? Did you happen to hit your head or something?" I asked, wondering why he would even dare to say such nonsense. If he had any brains at all, he should be apologizing to me for being the reason why I'm here right now, because if it wasn't for him finding me at the lake where I was peaceful, just sightseeing and enjoying my peace, I wouldn't have had to meet Hunter or deal with the numerous shitty situations I've had to deal with since I, unfortunately, found myself in this pack. "You should be apologizing to me right now instead of wearing that smug look on your face," I said, and he furrowed his brows in confusion. "I should apologize. For what exactly?" he asked. "I don't think I have anything to apologize for because, last I remember, you trespassed into our territory where you didn't belong, and as a good member of the pack and
