Seraphina’s POV 1

I stared at Caleb’s message until my eyes burned.

*”Sera! Long time no see, how are you lately?!”*

Those cheerful exclamation points made my chest ache. The coffee shop around me suddenly felt too small, too loud. The teenager

across the room was still glued to her phone. Everything was so normal, so ordinary.

My phone buzzed with another message from Caleb.

*”Hope you’re doing great! Miss our old conversations.”*

Miss our old conversations. Caleb lived at the border now. Far from Damien and the pack and everything that reminded me of what I’d

lost.

Maybe… maybe I could go to him.

The thought hit me like a lightning bolt. Caleb wouldn’t ask too many questions. He’d never been the type to pry or judge. If I said I

needed help, he’d help. That’s just who he was.

My hands shook as I typed a response.

*”Long time no see! I’ve run into some trouble and was wondering if I could come see you? Would that be okay?”*

I stared at the message for a full minute before hitting send. What if he said no? What if he was too busy? What if seeing me would just

bring back bad memories for him too?
