The Alpha Who Saved Me

Emery

I don't remember sweating this much whenever I prac- ticed my magic back at school. Now, the sweat is just pouring down my face and I'm constantly wiping it away. Miss Beat- rice stayed overnight wanting to get a practice in before me and my mates take on the tedious task of taking out a whole species, well, their magic anyway.

mates." I chuckle.

"Oh, hell no. It's just that the word hottie sounds so wrong coming out of your mouth." I laugh this time.

"See, right there! It's whatever, not whatevs." She shakes

her head and I shrug.

"Let's just agree to disagree." I chuckle.

"Finally! We at least agree on something."

"Can I ask you something, Miss Beatrice?"

"You can, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to answer." She grins.
