Mated (Mortal, Book Two)
The money in Alec's pocket is limited, and not for the first time, I curse myself for losing my wallet, which has the credit cards my dad's lawyer set up for me and that get paid off through my dad's estate.
Technically, those cards are for emergencies only, and I'd say getting chased away from your school by murderers is an emergency.
We head outside, where the night air slices through our clothes. Alec isn't even wearing a jacket. He tossed it after using it to try and stop Professor Trowles's bleeding.
Arms wrapped around myself for warmth, I walk down the library's front steps. The cold slices through my clothes.
"Let's head back to the bus station," Alec suggests.
