Hailey's POVI waited for the trumpet, my nerves on edge. Of course, they chose Nikki for me. Out of everyone, it had to be her. Great, just great. I caught Paxton and Dimitri glaring at each other again. Those two were like cats and dogs—one glare away from a full-on brawl. I rolled my eyes. Boys.Then, the trumpet blasted through the clearing, and everyone charged into the woods. I took a deep breath. Sure, I’m a werewolf, but these dense, shadowy woods still sent a shiver down my spine. It's creepy in here...plus, I’m stuck with Nikki, who wasn’t even trying to walk at my pace.“Hold on, Nikki. We’re supposed to stick together, remember?” I called, trying to match her pace.She whipped her head around with a look of utter disgust. “Oh, please! You can run if you want. There are, like, a million mosquitoes here, and I am *not* about to be their snack!”I rolled my eyes and jogged to catch up, trying to ignore her ‘princess’ attitude. I started spotting treasures, though, tucked unde

Hailey's POVLos Angeles's forest was everything we’d hoped—towering trees arched above us, shielding us from the sun as a gentle breeze cooled the air. The bus doors swung open, and everyone flooded out, stretching and yawning. Even though excitement buzzed around, exhaustion from the jet lag weighed heavy on us.I barely had a moment to breathe before Paxton appeared at my side, holding out a bottle of water and a handkerchief. “Here,” he offered with a gentle smile, dabbing my forehead despite my attempts to wave him off. “I’m fine, really—” I started, but he just chuckled and continued.I caught Dimitri’s gaze from across the clearing, his jaw tense, eyes hardening as he watched Paxton. I quickly looked away, pretending not to notice. Around us, students scattered, taking in the scenery. My heart sank as I spotted Jessy and Mia strolling far off with their teams. I missed them already; nothing ever felt right without them by my side. But it wasn’t really their fault.The lecturer

XOXO Hailey's POV The day finally arrived, and I could barely contain my excitement as I rushed home with my friends. We plopped onto my bed, the air thick with anticipation. “Did you hear the principal’s announcement?” Jessy exclaimed, her eyes sparkling. “Paxton is sooo handsome, and you might be in the same room!”I rolled my eyes, trying to mask the flutter in my stomach. “That’s only if Dimitri and Nikki agree to it,” I shot back, reminding myself to stay grounded. They both nodded, their expressions serious yet eager.“C’mon, let’s pack! We’re going to Los Angeles tomorrow!” Mia’s enthusiasm was infectious, and despite my nerves, a smile broke through. I was excited, but a gnawing worry tugged at me. What if everything didn’t go as planned?***D-Day dawned bright and clear.

Hailey's POV The next day, I arrived at school with my heart racing. As I walked in with my friends, the buzz of excitement filled the air. Students darted around, exchanging whispers and laughter, their faces alight with anticipation. “Who’s your teammate? Who’s your teammate?” they called out, the question echoing in the hallways. Mia, always perceptive, turned to me, her brow furrowed. “Did something happen? Why are they running helter-skelter?”I shrugged, trying to mask my own growing anxiety. The atmosphere was electric, and I could feel the thrill mixed with nerves. Just then, a student rushed past us, nearly colliding with Mia. She grabbed the girl’s hand.“Sorry, but what’s the uproar for? Did you guys win a lottery to the states?” Mia asked, a teasing lilt in her voice. The girl merely blushed and dashed off, leaving us even more curious.“You haven’t heard?” she finally said, her eyes wide with excitement. “We’re going on a two-day camp as part of the internship! Each te

Hailey's POVI couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Dimitri had thrown a flower in the air, caught it with ease, then dropped down on one knee with a smile that tried to be charming but only made my stomach churn. My face flushed hot as I saw the other boys cheering him on. What was he doing?I scanned the area, panic bubbling up inside me. "Are you out of your mind?" I hissed at him. "What the heck do you think you're doing?""Hailey, please," he said, eyes glistening with what I guessed was supposed to be sincerity. "I’m sorry for everything. Please… give me another chance. I’ll treat you right this time, I swear."My eyes widened, and the humiliation burned even hotter. He was acting like we’d been some fairytale couple instead of a mismatched disaster. "Dimitri, we’re over," I said firmly, but before I could step away, he grabbed me, pulling me in for a desperate hug, pressing his lips to my neck. "Please," he whispered, his voice cracking, "please."The crowd erupted into chants,

**Hailey's POV:**Paxton took me to the shopping mall after the incident. We picked out all sorts of clothes—dresses, tops, even some more casual things like sneakers. He insisted we stock up on provisions too: cereals, milk, and even Golden Morn, which he said reminded him of his childhood. It felt... surreal. Like, this wasn’t just another day. It felt special.When he dropped me off in front of my house, I barely had time to process everything before Jessy came rushing toward me. "Oh my goodness! Look at how stunning you look in your new dress!" Jessy exclaimed, practically bouncing on her feet as her eyes roved over me, taking in every detail. I could feel her excitement radiating, and it was contagious. A small smile tugged at my lips as I smoothed my hands over the fabric of the dress."All thanks to Nikki because we now have clothes and provisions for ourselves!" Mia chimed in, appearing beside Jessy with a playful glint in her eyes, her laughter echoing through the hallway.
