The sound of sirens grew louder, piercing my ears like a death call

I had just reached the training camp gate when two black SUVS of the enforcement squad rolled in. The wolf-claw emblem on their doors gleamed coldly in the sunlight.
My heart pounded so hard it hurt. My palms were drenched in sweat. Instinctively, I ducked behind a tree and watched the vehicles drive toward the main building. When they disappeared, I finally stumbled toward the front gate, where my driver was waiting.
“Drive! Hurry!” I shouted as I yanked the door open and climbed in, my voice shaking. The driver had served my pack for a long time. He saw my pale face and didn’t ask questions. He just hit the gas, and the car shot down the road.
I slumped in the seat, chest heaving.
This was never supposed to happen. I only meant to slip Jennifer’s watch into Amanda’s backpack. This trick would stir things up between them and make Amanda feel what it’s like to be cast out.
Why did she have to be better than me at everything? Even Samson treated her differently. Clara and Jennifer followed her around all the time.
But I never expected Jayden to suggest calling the Enforcement Squad and for them to show up that fast!
If they find out I framed Amanda and stole the watch, I’m finished. As a Windspire Pack’s Beta, I’ll lose everything.
They would expel me from training camp and blacklist me in the pack records. I won’t be able to show my face in Howlstead again. And my father… he’ll never forgive me.
My hands trembled as I pulled out the phone and dialed his number. The moment he picked up, tears spilled down my cheeks. “Dad, I messed up,” I sobbed.
Between hiccups and gasps, I told him everything-how it started and how it spiraled out of control. When I finally stopped talking, my voice broke. “What do I do now? I can’t go back. If the Enforcement Squad checks fingerprints and finds out it’s me, I’m done for!”
“You idiot!” My father roared through the phone. His voice was so angry it hurt my ears. “Why did you run? Running makes you look guilty!”
His voice was sharp and low. It carried the weight of a beta. “Get back there now. Act like nothing happened. That watch was touched by so many people-fingerprints are useless. They can’t pin it on you. Even if someone is suspicious, there’s no proof. Who’d dare go after a Windspire Pack member?”
I couldn’t get a word in. His words slammed into me. I cried harder, but I gritted my teeth and said, “Okay. I get it. Dad. I’ll go back now.”
After I hung up, I wiped my face and shouted at the driver, “Turn around! Go back to the training camp!”

The car headed back. My heart still thudded. When I pushed open the classroom door, everything looked normal. Students sat at their desks, studying like nothing had happened.
I forced a calm face and sat down. Almost at once I heard two classmates whisper behind me.
“Did you hear? The enforcers are checking the cameras. They’ll find the culprit soon.”
“No kidding. Someone stole a werewolf-energy enhancer watch and blamed Amanda. That’s unforgivable.”
The word “cameras” hit me like thunder. My stomach dropped.
How could I forget? The camp is full of surveillance cameras. I’d slipped out during the chaos. I must have been caught on tape. If the enforcement squad checked the footage, I’d be finished.
I shot up and bolted for the security office.
My heart pounded so hard it felt like drums in my chest. I ran faster and faster. I had one goal: destroy the footage.
I burst into the security office and pushed the door open. No one was inside. Only the monitor bank hummed, showing views from every corner of the camp.
I stepped forward to pull the cables when a calm voice said from behind me. “Here you are.”
I froze. It felt like someone had cast a spell on me. I turned around slowly.
