What do you think of Lily's decision to move to the packhouse?
I follow Beta Calvin to a room on his floor. It’s nice, but I feel like a stranger in this room. I go sit on the bed with nothing else to do. Nothing in this room is mine. I have no clothes, no toiletries, nothing. The reality of my situation comes crashing down on me. My father was going to sell me
As Lily closes the door, I immediately hear her sniffles and soft sobs. I clench my fists and go in search of Patrick. I’m furious that they didn’t throw her father in the cells or at least make sure he returned home. I find him in his office. I walk in without knocking. He looks up and when he see

Dinner was strange. First, I don’t usually eat in the packhouse. Since my parents have their own house, we usually eat there unless there is a pack event. But Clint insisted that I eat with him and Anders, which meant that I am sitting with all the ranked wolves. If people hadn’t noticed that I had
After dinner, I head up to my room and quickly shower and change before Calista is supposed to arrive. I grab my books and head downstairs just as she is walking into the packhouse. “Hey Cali.” “Lily!” We hug like we didn’t just see each other a couple hours ago. “Did your parents say anything ab
