Chapter 23
I found it hard to fall asleep; something about the day’s experiences prevented me from being able to sleep well. I didn’t want to admit it but I knew it had something to do with Ryker.
Before I knew it, the sun was rising and I knew it would be impossible to fall asleep again. I knew I wouldn’t be training so I lay in bed for longer than I usually would. Before I got here, I had never gotten a day in and now it’s almost all I do.
I stretched in my room by myself and took an early bath. I had just finished getting dressed when someone knocked on my door.
I recognized the knock as Eve’s so I crossed the length of the room and pulled the door open. I half expected to see her with a tray of breakfast but she was standing with her arms crossed and debating whether or not she should actually walk in but from the look on her face I knew she was worried.
“What’s wrong?” I asked and she opened her mouth but closed it immediately, “Tell me, Eve.”
“Lauren just arrived, and she looks pissed.” She explained, “I just wanted to give you a fair warning before you came down.”
“Thank you.”
She still looked pensive but then she turned on her heels and walked down the stairs. I followed closely behind because I knew hiding in my room would only make her bad mood worse and cause her to project it on Eve.
The first thing I noticed when I got down the stairs was the tapping of her shoes against the floor. I think Eve downplayed her annoyance, she looks genuinely pissed. She saw me and her eyes narrowed but she didn’t speak to me.
Instead she turned to Eve, “Where’s my breakfast?”
Eve shot me a look as if to say ‘can you see this?‘ then she disappeared into the kitchen. I took my usual seat on the opposite side of the dining table and pointedly kept my gaze off her. I didn’t want her to have any reason to blow up on me.
Eve returned a few seconds later and Lauren rolled her eyes and sat up straight expecting Eve to take it to her but Eve walked around the table

and placed the tray in front of me.
“Are you fucking kidding me?” Lauren slammed her hand against the table and jumped to her feet, “I asked for breakfast so why the hell are you serving her first?”
“She’s the future Luna,” Eve said simply, “And the Alpha hired me to work for her.”
That was the subtlest jab I had ever heard before and Lauren noticed because her eyes narrowed into slits and she reached for the tray but Eve pulled it back and out of her reach.
I never expected Eve to stand up for me and it made me feel guilty because I knew Lauren would come for her with the force of her anger.
