Chapter 0082
After Mr. Nelson leaves, | grab breakfast and head upstairs to get ready for
|
school. I've missed a week, so | know that | will have a lot to catch up on. But that givesan idea.
When | get to school, 1 head straight to the office. One of the benefits of being an Alpha at an all-werewolf
school is that | can pretty much get anything that | need. | don’t pull rank often, but today | will if | need to.
“Mrs. Connors.” | greet the woman who may be the oldest wolf I've ever met. My father said she worked at the
school when he was here decades ago. “I'm here on behalf of one of my pack members, Cara Nelson. She
missed school last week and I'd like to get her schoolwork for her so she can get caught up while she
recuperates.”
“Of course, Alpha.” She taps on her keyboard and pulls up Cara’s schedule. “I will get with her teachers today
and get her missed assignments. | can have everything for you by the end of the day. Just stop by before you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtleave and I'll make sure you have everything she needs.”
| smile at Mrs. Connors and thank her before heading out to class.
| get through the day thinking about the possibility of seeing Cara this afternoon. | know Mr. Nelson has forbidden
so.
As Chase and | are heading to the pack house afterschool, | get a mind link from Lacey. Cara is being released
tonight. That is great news, but it means that | won't be seeing her. She'll have to get home, get settled and
probably go to bed. early.
As | unload both of our schoolwork, | realize | can see her today, | just can’t talk to her. | grab Chase before he
can head to his room.
“Do you
mind starting training without me? Cara is getting released and | want
to see her.”
“Yeah, go see your girl. We'll be in training when you're done.” | run upstairs to drop off my things and change
quickly. I get the mind link from Jason that he’s heading to training because Cara is getting released.
| head downstairs and walk outside. They will have to pass the pack house on their way back home. | find a place
in the sun. | want to stand out so she will seeas they pass.
| see their van heading my way. I'm watching her in the passenger seat when she looks up and locks eyes with
me. She waves and | can’t help the smile that
spreads across my face. It's like everything that has been wrong just righted itself, and the heavy weight I've
been feeling for the last couple of days lifts. | lift my hand and wave back. a
Once they pass, | head out back to join training. My heart is lighter than it has been in over a week.
After training, | decide to eat dinner in my room. | have a lot of schoolwork | missed and | need to get caught up
if I have any chance of spending twith Cara this weekend. | don’t care if she is doing work while I'm sitting in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe room with her, as long as | get to be close to her.
I'm in the middle of sdifficult math problems when my phone pings. At this point, | don’t care who it is, |
couldn’t be happier for the interruption.
I'm a little shocked and a lot excited to see that it’s Cara and she’s initiating a conversation with me, even if it is
to say thanks for rescuing her. | tell her how | was surprised that she was released from the hospital and ask her
how she’s feeling.
I'm not surprised that she picks up that there is more information on Eli, but | don’t want to ruin our first text
chat by discussing him. | decide to try to be flirty by asking her to go head-to-head with me. But it’s also my way
of letting her know that I'm keeping tabs on my little guardian.
I'm thrilled when she starts joking back, talking about how she’s going to showmy ass. Oh, my Little
Guardian, you have no idea how much | cannot WAIT for that. But of course, | want her healthy. | want our first
sparring match to be fair so | can see just how amazing she really is.
As much as | want to talk to her all night, | know she needs her rest. | end our conversation with a heart emoji.
Just my little way of showing my love. It’s too early for her to feel the mate bond, but Kai and | are all in.
