Chapter 11: This Is What He Gave Up.Lessie’s StandpointLater That Night.The floor was still a bit wet, my mop was in the corner, and I felt so tired from acting like I knew how to clean.I wiped my hands on my jeans and looked at Lena. She was at her desk, looking at a book and writing fast in a notebook.She had been quiet since she got mad at me.I moved a bit, looking at the shut closet and thinking about asking her to pick out a dress for me to wear to the event. I cleared my throat."Hey… Lena?"She did not turn. "What?"I stopped. This was hard. We were not friends. Just roommates, really."I was thinking if maybe…" I stopped, swallowing. "You could pick a dress for me?"That made her stop.Slowly, she turned to me. "A dress? For what?""The Equinox Celebration," I said, lifting my head some. "I'm going… with Trent."Her eyes went wide. "You mean Trent?"I blinked. "Yeah… Trent."Lena put her pen down. "You mean Trent, the Trent? Like, Trent Maddox, the big deal in the Pack? T

Chapter 13: Push Me, I’ll Burn You.Lessie’s StandpointI rushed out of the hall, left Trent back there with a puzzled look and his hand half up. I didn't stop to tell him why. I just couldn't. Not with the fire in my chest and the tears coming to my eyes.The cold air hit me hard, but I took it in. I kept going until I got to the back yard of the school away from the loud songs, the sound of glass, those proud faces... and him.My shoes sank into the small stones as I moved back and forth.I didn’t care.I didn’t care about the dirt or the cold or the fact that I had practically abandoned my date.I was done.“Lessie, calm down,” my wolf whispered, but I was past calming.“I can’t believe him!” I hissed under my breath, throwing my arms in the air. “He really brought a woman to that event. Just to make me jealous? I mean, who even does that? He's a whole Alpha, not a teenage boy!”“You’re the one who walked in with Trent.”“I was proving a point!”“And now you’re hurt because your own

Chapter 15: Something She Won’t See Coming.Alpha Duaine’s Standpoint The chalk broke in my hand once more.I let go of the small piece and it fell into the tray. I held the desk tight with both hands, the wood making a noise as I did. I breathed in quick, light breaths. Anger was boiling inside me, like my own pulse.Cairo had been quiet through the entire class.Too quiet.“Say it,” I finally snapped inward."You lost control." His voice came low, too calm. "Again."I growled under my breath and yanked open the top drawer, snatching out a file just to distract myself from the image burned into my mind:Her hand on his arm.Her giggle.Her smug smile.The fire in her eyes when she challenged me in front of everyone.Lessie.No, Lessie.I paced around my office. My wolf stirred again."You should have never challenged her. You know she reacts like fire when pushed."“She humiliated me,” I hissed under my breath. “In my classroom. In front of the entire damn pack university. Do you und

Chapter 17: This Is Me Holding Back.Lessie’s Standpoint I was at the edge of the Silver Crest Pack's own place for training. The sun was high and the smell of old leather and steel was all around. Wolves training fought close by, but I only saw the man in front of me.Alpha Duaine.He wore a tight black top, fighting pants, and boots, looking like he came from a war dream or a very dark bad dream. His shirt sleeves were pushed up, arms strong and marked. His hard look gave nothing away."You’re late," he said.“I’m two minutes early,” I said, raising an eyebrow.His face showed me that two minutes was too short.“I said wear simple clothes,” he noted, looking at my tight top and leggings.“This is simple,” I replied fast. “Or did you expect me in armor?”A small smile appeared on his face, but it went away fast.“We’ll begin with basic sparring,” he said. “I need to assess what I’m working with.”“You mean you want to see if I’m weak,” I muttered.He raised a brow. “I already know yo

Chapter 19: The Letter, The Lie, and the Line I Won’t Cross.Lessie’S POVI sat on my bed reading the letter over and over again confused at who knew my secret that I entered the school with a fake identity when Lena walked into the room.She stood at the door, staring at me."Uh... did someone die?" she asked, throwing her books on her bed."Do you know who left this?" I replied, showing her the envelope that had my fake name, Lessie, clearly on it.She blinked."That? No. I was going out when I saw it right on our door step. Picked it up and saw your name on it.”Her words made my heart beat fast. I held the envelope even tighter.So someone in this dorm knows her real self.“Right…” I murmured.She moved to her side of the room, shuffling through her drawer for what I assumed was her favorite night cream, but then paused and turned around slowly.“Um… Lessie?”“Yeah?”I looked up, still a bit distracted by the content in the letter.She scratched the back of her neck awkwardly.“Ar
