Nina I woke up to the sound of thunder and howling wind in a dark bedroom that was not my own. Where was I? I slowly sat up, peering through the cracked door that led to another room. I could make out the silhouette of a man on the couch. He was watching a scary movie on the TV. It sounded like

“I’ll take you home when you’re able to walk without collapsing,” Enzo replied, his words immediately followed by a sudden crash of thunder that made the TV flicker. “Also, there’s a typhoon.” I shuddered and pulled my knees up to my chest. Wordlessly, Enzo stood and grabbed a throw blanket from a

Nina When I got home, Jessica and Lori were both furious. “Where were you!” Jessica yelled as soon as I walked in the door. I didn’t even have a chance to hang my jacket up. “You totally ditched us,” Lori chimed in, folding her arms across her chest. “We thought you got kidnapped or something. Th

“Uh… hey,” I said nervously with a little wave when I realized that she was indeed headed straight for me. “Hey, bitch,” she growled, not hesitating for a second before her hand flew forward and grabbed one of my braids, yanking me toward her. “Ow!” I yelped, trying to wrench my hair free from her

“I’ll be leaving in a few minutes for a performance review with the dean,” she said, rubbing her eyes. She looked like she was up late the night before, too. “Think you’ll be okay in here without me if any students come in?” “No problem,” I replied with a smile. By this point, I had been working he

Enzo After I dropped Nina off at her dorm on the night she was attacked by Lisa, I immediately returned to the police station. “I’m here to take her home,” I said, nodding my head toward the cell where Lisa was being held. She was sitting on the cot, visibly uncomfortable and covered in sweat. I h

“Where’s my father?” I asked. “Still overseas,” Lewis replied as we gently set Lisa down on the bed. She had already begun convulsing and we turned her on her side in case she vomited. “Won’t be back for another couple of weeks.” “This shifter situation is getting out of control,” I said. “The dea
