Aimee's POV
"Drink up."
Alpha Vincent offered me a bottle of water from the river. We had been traveling for about three hours and were now taking a rest by the clear river.
I had never seen such a refreshing forest; even the river was more beautiful than the lake where James once took me. Well, I had gotten used to not using the term 'alpha' for James anymore. My disappointment was too heavy and hard to explain.
I finished the bottle of water quickly as the hot day had made me dehydrated. It was probably only around nine in the morning, but the heat was already intense. I remembered my room's clock showing six in the morning before we departed.
"The freshest water I've ever had. Absolutely perfect."
"Do you want more? I can get another one." Alpha Vincent took the empty bottle from my hand and went back to the riverbank.
