“Close them!” “No, it’s morning. Why the hell were you drinking?” he asks, scanning the empty bottles that surround my desk, scattered on the floor.
How much did I drink? “Because | wanted to,” | reply quietly, a sudden thought entering my mind. The day of the rejection | had offered Zaia a drink of our favourite wine. x] Deep down, | was hoping that the memory would make her falter and refuse to accept my rejection. Yet she bent far faster than | could have imagined, throwing water all over my plans. 13 “So you mentioned the Whispering Mountain Pack Ball yesterday. Are you actually considering going to it?” he asks as he drops into the seat opposite my desk.
1/3 +15 BONUS I've searched all the packs around here, even those we are not on friendly terms with. There are only a few packs that | have not managed to get into and those belong to enemy packs.
Whispering Mountain is one of them, and this is the perfect chance to infiltrate their grounds.
“Yes, I'll be going.” “Then I'm coming with you. You know it’s going to be risky. Are you seriously considering this?” “Like | said, yes | am.

“Yes, Doctor Valerie Scott,” He replies sarcastically, makingfrown. Sighing, he shrugs, “Yeah, she’s still super hot, and | wouldn't mind seeing her in a sexy gown again. | mean, she’s gorgeous as hell and I'm bored of seeing her hiding her assets behind that boring white doctor's coat.” He smirks and he sits forward as | down the medication he gotand gulp down swater, hoping it helps.
“Right, and are you forgetting the fact that both of you jump at each other's throats the moment you're in the sroom?” | remind him.
