The second I touched the card, I realized the photo on it was of Samson. Those sharp features, that cold profile-it was definitely him.

I ran after him, holding the ID. “Mr. Ortega, you dropped this.”

He paused, patting the inside pocket of his suit. A flash of surprise crossed his eyes. He took the ID and gave me a quick thanks. “Thanks, Ms. Cobbett!”

“You’re welcome. See you,” I said politely. My eyes caught the birthday line by accident-April 6. Today was April 3. His birthday was just a few days away.

I watched him vanish into the VIP section, then made my way straight to the airport restroom.

I locked a stall and ripped off Sara’s disguise. I washed off the light makeup, swapped in a paler foundation, added freckles, and tied my chestnut hair into a messy low ponytail. Then, I changed back into my hoodie and jeans.

The girl staring back in the mirror was the plain, uggo Amanda again.

Alice sighed. “Every time you switch disguises, it’s like prepping for battle. Honestly, I’m impressed you’ve kept it up this long.”

I forced a small smile at the mirror, checked for mistakes, grabbed my bags, and left.

Before going back to the Ortegas, I stopped by the parcel station to pick up a package. It had some local treats from the Glacier Pack, plus the limited edition Avi albums I’d saved for Emily and Derrick.

Arms full of bags, I stepped into Ortega Castle. A servant rushed over to take the packages, and Hugh’s voice came from the living room. “Amanda! You’re back! I missed you while you were gone.”

“Hugh!” I hurried over and handed him the tea. “My grandparents asked me to bring this. They know you like it. And these Glacier Pack goodies are full of natural energy ingredients-good for the wolf spirit.”

Hugh set the paper down, his face crinkling with a laugh. “Wonderful! Amanda, how were the past few days

at home?”

“All good!” I stuck out my tongue, a little shyly. “A bit tired from the trip. They also said hi and invited you to visit the Glacier Pack when you can.”

“Nice! It must’ve been a long ride. Go rest upstairs. Beata will call you for dinner later.”

I nodded and headed up.

Passing Derrick’s room, I paused-I hadn’t given him the album yet. So I knocked.

The door swung open fast. Derrick’s eyes lit up. “Amanda, you’re back?”

“Yeah, just got in.” I handed him the signed album. “You said you liked Avi. This is a limited edition from my collection. It’s yours.”

He flipped to the signed page and saw the big “Avi” signature. His voice shook with excitement. “You actually have this? It’s impossible to find. I’ve tried everywhere!”

Usually so composed, Derrick looked like a kid who had just gotten his favorite toy, eyes wide with joy.

I rubbed my head, a bit embarrassed. “Glad you like it. I’ll head back to my room.”

Derrick suddenly called after me. “Wait, Amanda.”

“What’s up?” I asked, curious.

O

“You gave me such a rare album. I don’t have anything to give you back. How about I take you to dinner sometime?”

I was about to say no, but he looked so hopeful, like a cat that had finally mastered begging.

Alright, it was just a meal. No big deal. “Okay. Sure.”

“I’ll swing by your school then.” He exhaled, grinning ear to ear.

I turned around and went into my room.

Once I dropped my stuff, I grabbed my phone and texted Emily, attaching a photo of the album.
