When we pulled up in front of the castle, I glanced up at the second floor. The light in Grandpa’s study was still on. He was probably still buried in those competition reports from the Physical Fitness Alliance.

Just as Amanda was about to get out, I said, “Congrats!”

She froze, turning to me with a puzzled look, like she didn’t know what I meant.

I explained, “You got first place in the physical challenge and even broke the Eclipse Pack’s youth record.”

She finally smiled a little. “I should be the one thanking you. You helped me train.”

“You’re just naturally gifted,” I said honestly. My gaze fell on her hand gripping the hem of her shirt. Hard to believe those fingers could take down three guys in a bar without breaking a sweat.

I switched gears and teased, “You have a good talent for dancing, too,”

Amanda stiffened right away, avoiding my eyes as she fumbled with the door handle. “Uh, that was nothing. I was just goofing around. Anyway, it’s late. I’m gonna get some sleep. You should too. Good night.”

Before I could respond, she dashed inside like a startled deer, not even closing the car door behind her. I watched her disappear into the castle, absently rubbing the steering wheel.

For some reason, she looked kind of adorable just then.

Amanda’s POV:

The moment I closed the door behind me, I leaned against it, trying to catch my breath. My heart was racing. Samson actually mentioned the bar dancing. What else had he been secretly noticing?

Alice piped up, “Lucky your messy makeup didn’t smudge! Otherwise, you’d be totally exposed!”

I went over to the vanity and started wiping off the thick foundation covering my face. Watching my real features slowly reappear in the mirror, I let out a sigh. “How much longer do I have to wear this mask every day?”

Alice was about to comfort me when Grandpa’s gentle, slightly teasing voice came through the wolf mind- link. “Still up, Amanda?”

I snapped upright. “Yeah, Grandpa. Just got back.”

He paused, then asked. “Your wolf spirit feels steadier lately, right? But it still drifts sometimes?”

I froze. Grandpa actually noticed! I hesitated, gripping the makeup wipe. “Yeah, when I’m working on explosive power sometimes, it goes a little haywire.”

Grandpa chuckled. “Silly girl, you don’t have to rely on a mate to keep your wolf spirit steady. Hanging out with friends and feeling safe with them also helps. Didn’t you make a friend at training camp? Spend more time with her. It’s way better than hiding in your room.”

Warmth spread through me. “I get it, Grandpa. Thanks.”

After ending the mind link, Alice squealed, “Grandpa really gets it! No wonder he kept telling you to hang out with Emily more-it’s all for your wolf spirit!”

I shook my head with a smile, continuing to wipe off my makeup. Maybe having friends around would make hiding less exhausting.
