I feel wretched! I swear my body is sluggish, and my mind is hazy. I’ve felt this way since Jenna left the territory. I’ve been struggling with training and my duties as the future Beta of the pack. I’ve tried to keep the twins out of it as much as possible, relying on Tia to talk it out with me.

Our parents are in front of the packhouse now, welcoming the guests for tomorrow’s ceremony. I had planned to join them, but I just couldn’t put the fake smile on my face and pretend. I’d have to pretend that my heart and soul aren’t hurting. That angers me! Why should I be hurting? Why should I want someone that is clearly no good for me? It isn’t just Cato who yearns for her; I hate myself for that. Out of all of the she-wolves I could have been fated to, it just had to be her, Jenna.

“What?” Lynn sighs and walks into my room, sitting on my bed next to me.
