‘He’ll be here in two days at most,’ Ashleigh thought to herself.
In fact, she hadn’t stopped thinking about that since the moment she found out. She had tried to distract herself, tried to focus on her tasks, wrapping up training with the other ambassadors, organizing improvements to the borders and defenses. But every thought, every action led back to Caleb.

Ashleigh thought back to the argument she had with Caleb on her last day in Summer. His voice resonated in her mind.
‘We have offered Alpha Wyatt a multitude of technological advancements over the years. He has rejected most of them. And over the past couple years, every one of them.’
