I woke to the sound of banging. Startled from my sleep, I jumped out of bed just in time for my bedroom door to open.

“sh*t Lola, what’re you still doing here?” My Dad exclaimed, his eyes darting around at my restless appearance.

“Huh?” Was the first thing to leave my lips. For a minute there I hadn’t even remembered leaving grandma’s house.

With an exasperated look my Dad replied, “Hell, you’re late for training!”

“What!” I gasped, “Why didn’t Sean wake me up?”

“He has patrol early in the mornings.” My Dad groaned, “Already off to a bad start.”

“sh*t, well go so I can get dressed!” I huffed, sprinting to my suitcase and yanking out the first thing I saw.

Once my door closed I slipped on a black sports bra and a pair of black leggings. I hastily combed through my hair using the bathroom mirror. In the back of my head I remembered Tyler’s comment about me looking goth. I smirked into the mirror.

I darted down the stairs, nearly toppling my grandma over on the way.

“Lola if you end my life knocking me down these stairs I’ll haunt you!” Grandma called out after me, but I was already barreling through the front door.

My stomach rumbled, demanding we go back home and eat some breakfast. As much as I’d love to oblige, I couldn’t.

“Goddess, he’s going to be pissed.” Maya huffed.

“Well I didn’t see you waking me up on time either!” I grumbled at her.

“I was busy.” Maya shrugged, giving a half ass excuse.

“You’re a damn wolf who lives in my head, what could you have possibly been doing?” I shook my head at her.

Maya’s voice went silent in my head and I rolled my eyes. For once I was thankful that our house was a short run from the pack house.

By the time my lungs had started to burn, I could see the other’s already training. I skidded to a halt in front of everyone. From the looks of it there were at least thirty other wolves present for training.

I instantly noticed Alpha Asher’s men lingering around. Each one looked like they were half giant, and many had gruesome scars on different parts of their body. Each one was completely hot in an animalistic sort of way.

I had been so busy ogling the shirtless men that I hadn’t heard it when someone behind me cleared their throat.

I spun around and nearly smacked into someone’s chest.

“Well f**k,” Maya’s breath caught in her throat.

I could only assume I was looking into the eyes of Alpha Asher. His eyes were the color of liquid honey, and at the moment they were set directly on my face.
