The nurse muttered another word of apology before leaving, shutting the sliding door behind her to give us privacy. Once we were alone, I felt my mother’s hand on my back. I shrugged her off and whipped my head up, glaring at her. “I can’t believe you’d let it come to this,” I growled, feeling rag

Nina My eyes widened at my mother’s words. “What?” I asked, momentarily pulling away from Taylor as my hands started to shake. “How do you--” My mother sighed and bowed her head. She was silent for several long moments that felt like an eternity before looking back up at me with tears in her e

Enzo Our second hockey match in the Half-Moon tournament came all too quickly. I felt as though I had absolutely no time at all to figure out the situation with Edward or, more importantly, talk to Nina about what happened with her brother before I was forced to train for the next match, which wou

Nina When I returned home that night, I locked myself in my room and got to work scouring through Justin’s patient files. I stayed up all night poring over the files until the sun came up, but there wasn’t anything in the folder that could outright prove that Edward had given Justin the Mad Wolf se

As I cracked my eyes open against the light coming in through the window and started to get my bearings, I realized from the smell of the wood and the forest around me, in combination with the smell of campfire smoke and the sou

Enzo I hadn’t been planning on going to the party, but Matt dragged me along; I figured it could also be a good chance to try to observe Justin or to interrogate Lisa, so I agreed to go. It wasn’t long after I got there, however, that rumors started making their way over to me… Rumors of Nina being
