Helanie:
That was all for the night. Thankfully, Lamar didn't delve into the topic further. Lucy was already asleep in the bed. Lamar told me that he brought her back after she acted unusually cold. Jenny and the others had returned by the time I was at the tenth floor. I slept through most of the night but had a few nightmares. I frequently woke up to make sure the door was locked and that the Alpha hadn't gotten in.
"Isn't it getting colder?" Lucy whispered, walking beside me toward the academy. Our uniforms were neatly pressed, and our shoes were shining--not because it was a special day, but because while trying to distract her mind, Lucy had found a new obsession with cleaning everything.
Not only that, but Salem was going to come after class to clean the room, and I didn't plan to spare her.
Last night had been a lot for all of us. Our friend group was all messed up now.
