I barely slept all night. When I looked in the mirror the next morning, two dark circles were hanging under my eyes. I ran my fingers through my hair twice, gave up on fixing it, and dragged myself downstairs for breakfast.
Just as I reached the dining room, I almost bumped into Samson walking out with a cup of coffee.
He was wearing light gray loungewear with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms. The moment he saw me, his hand paused midair. He looked uneasy as he said, “Good morning.”
His nervous look threw me off for a second. Then I remembered how firmly he rejected Amy at the hot spring, and a small warmth spread through my chest.
I gave him a natural smile. “Good morning, Mr. Ortega.”
After breakfast, he spoke first. “I’ll drive you to school. It’s on my way to the Operations Department.”
In the car, he held the steering wheel with one hand and said casually, “A funny thing happened yesterday with the representatives from Isnesh Pack. Ms. Ashford actually confessed to my translator in front of everyone.”
My hand paused on my cup. I forced a surprised tone. “Really? Didn’t that make you uncomfortable?”
“No.” He glanced at me, his eyes serious. “She turned her down right away. Told her we should keep things professional.”
I couldn’t help laughing. “That’s good. Better than letting someone hope for nothing. Was your translator scared?”
“Not at all. She actually comforted Amy afterward.” There was a quiet note of admiration in his voice. “And she’s strong. Amy ran into a snake yesterday, and she kicked it away in one move. Even Josh couldn’t react that fast.”
My heart tightened. I quickly changed the topic. “Sounds like your translator is excellent. You’ve found the right person.”
He didn’t reply. He only looked at me through the rearview mirror, his gaze filled with deeper curiosity.

I pretended not to notice and turned to the window. He was trying, in his own clumsy way, to show me he was changing.
Soon, we arrived at the entrance of the Werewolf Language Academy. I thanked him and hurried out of the car.
The moment I stepped through the gates, someone grabbed my wrist and pulled me under a
tree.
“Boss, it’s me!” Theo yanked off his cap, grinning with excitement.
“What’s going on?” His sneaky look made me curious.
“Mooncrest Pack’s annual racing championship is next weekend! It’s the biggest racing event in all of Howlstead.” He waved a flyer in front of me. “I saved you front-row tickets. Want to go?”
