The feeling in the room in changing. Maybe it’s because we’re all together at mealtimes, or maybe this is just a really good. group with the exception of Logan, but the dining hall is starting to have a family atmosphere to it. People call out to each other across the tables, giving each other a hard time, and bantering back and forth. And there is laughter, lots of laughter. I didn’t think there would be after last week, but there is. Unlike in the past when I felt like I was a bit on the outside of it all, this time, I feel like I’m right in the middle of it. It’s a good feeling. A feeling like I truly belong here. It truly feels like we’re developing our own little pack for the short time everyone is here.
When dinner is over, Alpha James stands to address the group.
“Alright everyone. The good news is you all survived hell week.”
We all begin to cheer, myself included. It was a hell week, and we did survive.
James smiles like a proud father but eventually quiets us down. “Your work isn’t done, but the worst is over. Now, we begin building you to the incredible fucking Alphas I know you can become!”

“Penile penetration?” James asks to clarify.
She nods.
“Christina gets one too,” Sebastian says. When I look, he’s practically daring Logan to say a word about it. Then his eyes meet mine across the table and he winks at me.
“I’ll remind everyone that the sex class isn’t a race, that’s why most of these tokens are available to all Alphas who achieve the goal. Work with your partners, go at their pace,” James says, handing me and Tyler our ten–point tokens.
“Ten minutes?” I ask him.
See you then.
I have an idea for tonight. It’s putting me a bit out of my own comfort zone, it’s something I’ve never done before, but I think the sex class is more than just giving orgasms. It’s about exploring your own sexuality and that of your partner while figuring out what makes you and your partner’s time together, and therefore your orgasms, that much stronger.
