Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

It took me thirty minutes, quicker than last time to get there and I stayed for around an hour when my mother told me to head home because I couldn’t stop yawning. Trudging back we part ways when I am halfway back home.

Kora was off making me wonder if me drinking affected her and not me, because I felt completely sober while she felt sluggish. Hearing a twig snap. I freeze, sniffing the air, my heart hammering in my chest and Kora stirs nervously.
