My heart was pounding in my chest as I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my graduation cap for what felt like the hundredth time that morning. I groaned
miserably, quickly becoming frustrated with the damn thing; the tassel kept swinging into my face, no matter how I positioned it.
“Damn tassel… Stay where I put you!”
Suddenly, a familiar form walked into view behind me. I didn’t even need to look to know that my mate had walked into the room-I had been picking up his scent lingering in the hallway, clearly trying to decide whether he should come in and help or let me stew on my own, for the last ten minutes already.

“There,” Edwin said softly when he was finished, his gray eyes meeting mine in the mirror. “You had it on backwards. Is that better?”
Nodding, I turned to face him, my stomach roiling with butterflies and pre-graduation nausea. “Are you sure I look alright?” I asked, reaching up to adjust my cap again. “I feel like I look ridiculous in this giant gown.”
