Chapter 63: It Was All A Dream, Right?

The ray of sunlight touched her face as she slowly opened her eyes. Angela blinked and turned her head toward the light. This was the first time she had woken up this late since she came to the Academy. She had been late before, but never like this. This was too late.

With sleep still in her eyes, she stretched out her hand and picked up her phone from the drawer beside the bed. She checked the time.

It was already past ten in the morning.

"Shit," she muttered and sat up quickly. Her mind went into panic. Why had she overslept? Morning exercise was over. Breakfast too. She had missed everything.

Her heart beat faster as she rushed to check her schedule. No message from Alex. No call from Stales. Not even a reminder from Kaito. That alone made her stop and think. Kaito would never let her sleep in like this if there was a class. He always woke her up.

Then she saw the date.

It was Saturday.

Angela let out a heavy breath and leaned back. A wave of relief moved through her chest. No classes today. She checked again to be sure. Only cleaning and a football match in the evening. The rest of the day was free.

She could breathe again. Study, train a little, maybe rest before the match.

Then her thoughts drifted.

What happened last night between her and Renn... it must have been a dream. A stupid, intense dream. She let out a small sigh and smiled a little. Thank God it was just a dream.

Still, her chest tightened.

Why did it hurt, if it was only a dream? Why did it feel so real?

Maybe her wolf was starting to want a mate. Maybe that was why her mind created that dream. Renn had been gentle in it. His eyes. His touch. His kiss. Everything felt warm and full. And it had excited something inside her.

But it was just a dream. Nothing more. Her life would move on.

She was about to get out of bed when she saw him—Kaito.

He was lying on the couch, flat on his back. One of his legs was bent while the other stretched out. One of his hands covered part of his face, probably blocking the sunlight that came in through the window.

Angela froze.
