Once they were in their bedroom, the triplets scolded Thea for running off on her own. “I’m sorry I scared you,” Thea said. “I know you can take care of yourself,” Kai said. “Please don’t shut us out of mind link.” “Please tell us what you’re doing when you’re doing it,” Alaric said. “Okay, yes.

Thea woke up in the morning to Kai and Alaric cuddled up to her on either side and Conri lying between her legs with his head on her stomach. Her arms were wrapped around Kai and Alaric, and she trailed her fingers up and down their bare skin. The triplets stirred and snuggled closer to Thea. Alari

Right after the bell rang to start sixth period, a group congregated around Thea’s locker. They made their way to New Dawn, got a warm meal, saw the pack doctor. Thea and the triplets showed them their new rooms, showers, the clothes room. A little while later, Thea and the triplets gathered all t

“How do we go about getting something set up to teach the ex-slaves how to read?” Thea thought to the triplets as they walked toward the pack house. “Aren’t there some retired teachers in the pack?” Conri said over mind link. “Yeah. Aldo Brown and Senan Moore,” Alaric said. “Let’s talk to them,”

“I don’t know. I need to practice and experiment,” Thea said. “On the last pickup, I sensed the people running, scared, and other people chasing, not scared. I drained the patrolmen, and it slowed them a bit, and some of them stumbled and fell. It made them clumsy. I could feel where everyone was. I

“Tangent. Could you do that with us too?” Chase said. He was one of the guards on duty when Thea worked on Mr. Garrity. “Like while we’re tracking, you see what parts of our brain are involved, and then you boost them?” “I don’t see why not,” Thea said. “Let’s get that worked into our schedule, yea

“I think it’s a matter of luck,” Landon said. “If an evil witch gets kicked out of her coven, sometimes she’ll approach a pack and strike up a deal. If they ensure her safety, she’ll work magic for them. Occasionally, a witch will mate with a werewolf. It’s rare. I don’t see groups of witches fighti

“Another option is that they could try to take the students when they go to school,” Conri said. “They are most vulnerable there,” Jonah said. “Of course, that would be an open act of war,” Alaric said. “They could claim we started it,” Ryker said. “Their people left of their own volition,” Jona
