Hu:Coach Greg’s voice slices through the locker room as he marches in, blowing his whistle multiple times, clapping his hands to get the rowdy locker room to come to a halt. I know the girls did well yesterday, but the fact we won’t have a shot at the finals if we fail is where the pressure is. We are the only shot needed to save face for our pack. Although we have never lost to any team, there is still need for preparation.“Hu!” He shoots me a commanding look, and I jog up to him, standing beside him. Then he faces the rest of the team.“I don’t care how good the Blue Shadow boys are. I don’t care if they’ve got players with ice for blood. We are Shadow Pelt!” he growls, pacing in front of us. “Yesterday, they took victory from our girls, and it is our duty to protect them, so we must restore their dignity!”Every guy in the team stands straighter, and I can see the raw burn of revenge in their eyes. Well, it is mostly because some boys have taken a liking to the girls. The team is

 GINGER:It is the first day of school after the match, and the halls are silent with praise for me. No one is giving me a disgusted look, and the people who hate me so much have their lips shut as I walk down the hallway.The feeling is great, I must admit, but there are more pressing issues. I get to my locker, put my stuff away, take out the things I need, and then shut it just in time to see Hu walking towards the classroom halls. I go after him.“Hu!” I call out, and he comes to a halt without turning to face me. I make my way to his front, standing before him, and even now, he has his face down. He is making this more difficult for both of us, and I wish he would just speak to me, but it doesn’t look like he will be doing that anytime soon.“Is everything okay?” I question, and he glances up at me with his expression neutral.“Yes, everything is

GINGER:Caspian’s lips against mine are soft and heartwarming. It feels like old times. I feel my body opening up to him as he nibbles gently, pleading for entrance, which I grant him without thinking twice. My wolf has been starved of touches from any of her mates for two months now, and I am the only barrier stopping her from undoing Caspian’s clothes and taking him here in public.After what feels like an eternity, Caspian pulls away, both of us panting. My mind is still afloat as he speaks.“I’ve missed this,” he says, drawing me back to reality. Then he stares into my eyes, causing my chest to thump fast, making me regret kissing him.Before I can react, the words I dread fall from his lips. “I want you, Ginger.”Air leaves my lungs as I stay still, wondering whether to pull away or not. I do not want to lead him on again. I mean, I love him as a person, my

 HU:It’s been two days. Two days of Ginger explaining everything to me, and yes, it makes sense, but somehow I still cannot believe it. The thought that she is mine. That should be enough to silence every storm in my chest, but it doesn’t.I find myself even more troubled than I was, and each moment we spend together, I keep looking at her like she’s made of glass, like if I blink too long, she’ll vanish. I wanted her more than anything.I fought for her in ways I’d never fought for anyone. And now that she’s here, I feel… off. Like I’m not enough, or even doing anything right. I know it has only been two days, but it feels like an eternity and I already fucked up. I haven’t even marked her yet, because I’m scared of what will happen when we become infinitely tied to one another.Hearing her say she loves me is new to me each time, but

GINGER:Sometimes, I cannot believe Hu and I are together. A part of me still feels bad for Caspian, but he hasn’t done anything off the charts. Each time I check on him, he says he’s fine, and I can only take his words. His relationship with Hu isn’t necessarily damaged, but I cannot for sure call them best friends. Hu, too, seems fine, and it is like I am the only person worrying about it.“Good morning, love,” Hu rasps, tightening his grip on my waist, and I turn to face him.“Good morning,” I reply in a small voice, and he goes silent, staring up at the ceiling. He has been like this for a while now. Each time we have a sleepover, I wake up to him staring into thin air, and sometimes it makes me think there is something bothering him.Of course there is, but I fear it has something to do with us.“I know I have asked a million times, but what is bothering you?” He shifts on the bed, directing his gaze at me with a smile on his lips. “You need to tell me, because I cannot help but
