“Hi!” 1 say, forcing my face into my best cheerful–Princess grin. “There’s coffee! Come sit down!”
Luca just narrows his eyes at me a little more, suspicious, and goes to the other side of the table, sitting with Jesse.

God, I feel like a little rabbit being watched by a hungry wolf.
We’re wolves too! My wolf reminds me, snapping her jaws eagerly in response to Luca’s predatory prowl. Let’s not let him see us sweat.

Rafe, Jesse, and Ben chat excitedly about their mornings, those on Warrior track eating faster than Ben and I because they have a workout this morning while Ben and I have an extra hour before class.
“Why do you think that is?” he asks me frowning.
“Who knows,” I say, giving a little shrug. “Maybe we’ll have like…extra homework to do in the mornings or something.”
“Nerd track,” Jesse murmurs, and I shoot him a dirty little glare.
