When we arrive, I can see that the area where we are staying is gorgeous. The air is cool and crisp, but everything is starting to bloom after their harsh winter. When we get to the vacation hthat Alpha Patrick rented for us, there are only two bedrooms. I’ll have to talk to Cali about our sleeping
arrangements. I’d prefer to sleep with Clint, but I don’t want to make her uncomfortable, or force Anders
to sleep on the couch.
After we drop off our bags, we head out to look around. We walk to the Harbor and the air coming off the water is chilly. Clint wraps his arms aroundas we watch the boats heading out for the day.
“It’s beautiful!” Cali says and I turn to see that Anders has wrapped his arms around her as well. She doesn’t seem upset with the touch or his closeness.
We find a coffee shop and I feel myself relaxing for the first tin a long time. I feel carefree away from
the demands of school, the pack and my parents. After coffee, we find that our hike is scheduled for early
afternoon. We head back to the vacation house and change into clothes more suitable for hiking.
We drive out to the mountain range and find a place to park. The information that Clint and Anders have on the hike is that we are on pack property, and humans can’t hike here. Normally, we would shift into our wolves, but instead, we stay on foot and begin climbing.

Anders. Cali isn’t as in shape as the rest of us, not participating in training like we do. Clint and I start to
find rocks and areas where we can test our strength and speed without actually training. We’re laughing
and play fighting trying to beat each other at every “test‘ we set up for ourselves.
“Are they always like this?” I hear Cali ask.
“I’m not sure. Maybe it’s a Guardian thing.” Anders replies.

Clint and I are racing to the top of a boulder. He beta kiss that I couldn’t beat him. I keep moving ahead of him and he keeps grabbing my foot and pullingback. When we finally reach the top, we both bend over, laughing and panting at our antics. I look down and see that Cali is riding on Anders back. He
doesn’t look phased at all that he is hiking with the weight of another person on his back.
Clint pullsto him. “You lost.” He says, before taking my lips in a scorching kiss.
“You cheated.” I tell him when we pull away.
“All’s fair in love and war.” He says kissingagain..
I laugh. “And which is this? Love or war?”
“Love, absolutely.”
I look at him, waiting for the smirk or laughter. It doesn’t come. He is completely serious. I’m on the verge

of kissing him when Anders finally makes his way up the boulder, Cali hanging on him like a monkey.
“Cali, I can’t believe you made Anders carry you!” I exclaim, running over to help him.
“Made him? He insisted on carrying me. I told him to putdown, but he refused.”
“I’ve got her Lily. She barely weighs anything.” Anders says, standing up. He’s not even winded.
We sit and enjoy the view before starting our descent. We have dinner plans tonight and according to Anders, his father made reservations at a nice restaurant for all of us.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWe get back to the house, and I take the opportunity when the guys are showering to talk to Cali about the sleeping arrangements.
“What do you think, Cali. If you’re uncomfortable having Anders sleep on the couch, we can share a
room.”
She looks at the room that Anders went into to shower. “No, you go ahead and stay with Clint tonight. I’ll figure things out with Anders.”
“Are you sure, Cali. I don’t want you to be uncomfortable.”
“I’m sure.” She tells me.
I’m beginning to think we’re both giving in and neither of us is sorry about it.
