“He’s my father’s best friend. They worked at the Academy together for years. Both of them lost their fated mates and used the Academy to
find their way again. I grew up hearing their stories of the Academy, learning from the best how to spar and how to use my senses. It’s why my second heightened sense, smell, is almost as good as my first, which is hearing.”
I pull my face away from his neck to look at him. “And you still learned things and improved at the Academy?” I ask, surprised.
“Every instructor has something different to teach you. Even the other Alphas in the Academy bring their own knowledge, their own way of doing things with them. I tried to absorb as much as I could in the six months that I was there.”
I lay my head against his chest again, tucking my face against his throat. It feels very comfortable sitting like this.

“I agree that the Moon Goddess doesn’t make mistakes. But honestly, whoever ends up with my sister better have balls of steel.”
A laugh bursts out of me unexpectedly. I cover my mouth with my hand, my eyes going wide.
“You can laugh, it’s funny. And you think I’m joking? Wait until you meet her. I’ll be shocked if you don’t have a headache before the end of the first day she’s here,” he reaches out and pulls my hand away from my mouth.
“You don’t need to hide from me. Not your grief, not your happiness, not anything,” he says, his deep voice resonating inside me, making my wolf sit up in my head.
