The Transfer

I woke up early the next morning. My sleep hadn't been peaceful, as the nightmares had come in the night. They shocked me awake and kept me up for most of the night. But I knew that nightmares weren't an excuse to not train the next morning.

I dressed in tight leggings and a tank top. I didn't intend on shifting into my fur on the run. I still had healing wounds from the day before and I didn't want to risk hurting them more whilst I ran. I decided I would wait until I sparred later on.

"Morning, Ali. You still coming on the run this morning?" Lila greeted me. I smiled warmly as I slipped on my sneakers and tied the laces.

"Hey. I'm running but I won't shift. Still have some injuries that I don't want to make bleed," I told her. I heard her wolf yip in approval in my mind and I stood up. I made my way out my room and into the kitchen where Ezra was standing.

He shot me a sincere look that made me feel better. I liked that he cared for me. I hadn't known him long but we already had a connection that I knew I would never want to lose.

"We're waiting outside for you," Brayleigh told me. I grinned and waved goodbye to Ezra. He cheekily blew me a kiss as I walked out the cabin.

Surely enough, Lila and Brayleigh were waiting outside my cabin for me. When they saw me, they both flashed me wide grins. They both rubbed their cheeks against mine and I felt something pull between Lila and I.

I wasn't sure if she felt it, because she just turned and started to lead the way. Something inside my mind told me to stay close to her, so I did. The three of us ran together. The girls didn't try to push me or challenge me. They let me run at my own pace.

"You're humming, Ali," Brayleigh told me as we reached the rocky hills. I looked over at her and saw her smile.

I glanced down at myself momentarily and indeed felt my blood humming. My veins were buzzing with hot fire that came from my Alpha. I felt it, and my wolf yipped. But we both knew our blood was still to get louder.

I said nothing but I smiled as we ran on. The run up the rocky hills was harder on two legs but we all made it to the top quickly and kept going.

When we made it back to the pack, we were all breathing hard and panting tiredly. Brayleigh didn't have training today, but Lila did. She told me that she worked with Alfie mostly.

We said goodbye to Brayleigh as she went to go and shower. Lila and I walked over to Alfie who was talking to other students. There were four of them. They were all sweating and panting. They must've just done something hard to be sweating that bad.

"Go for a run to cool off. Oh, and if you see Malcom out there, tell him to get his ass back here before I go out there and find it myself," Alfie ordered the wolves. They nodded at him and began to run towards a track that would take them deep into the forest.

"Morning Alfie," I greeted him. He looked up at Lila and I and then smiled. He glanced at the time on his wrist watch and screwed up his nose.

"You finished your run early this morning. Was it was good one?" Alfie asked us. Lila nodded at him and then chuckled a little.
