By the time I got back to Ortega Castle with the sealed folder Baxter gave me, the sky was already dark.
I locked myself inside my room and only turned on a small warm night lamp. Then I carefully tore open
the seal.
Inside were over 30 pages of yellowed paper, filled with ancient Firish werewolf terms mixed with Eclipse Pack energy symbols. It was even more complex than the Bureau letter I had translated last time.
Alice warned me in my head, “These symbols look really tough. Be careful not to mess it up.”
I didn’t answer. I just picked up my pen and began matching each symbol with the reference guide, word by word, line by line.
I had only finished two pages when there was a knock on my door. A maid’s voice came from outside. “Ms. Lamb, Mr. Hugh asked me to bring you a glass of milk.”
My heart skipped a beat. I quickly shoved the papers under my pillow and pulled the sheet over them. Then I cracked the door open, grabbed the glass, and shut it fast. The Bureau had made it clear-this had to stay secret. Even the Ortegas’ servants couldn’t see these files.
I took a sip of the milk, warmth sliding down my throat, then sat back at my desk. I kept translating until past midnight, but I’d only finished a third.
I locked the papers in the hidden compartment of my wardrobe and rubbed my temples. Three days wasn’t much time-I’d have to move faster.
By Monday morning, sunlight spilled across the werewolf training grounds, carrying the scent of damp grass. As I walked through the school gates, I spotted Emily running toward me with her backpack bouncing. “Amanda!” she called.
“Morning, Emily,” I said, smiling as I slowed down:
She grabbed my wrist, eyes sparkling like a little wolf pup trying to please. “Um… I couldn’t solve the last two problems on the wolf spirit energy homework. Can I copy yours?”
The assignment from last week involved energy conversion rates between different packs. It sure was tricky. I reached out and ruffled her hair. “I’ll teach you later. Copying won’t help-you’ve got to understand the process.”
Emily nodded right away. “Okay! Learning from you is way better than figuring it out myself anyway!”
We chatted and laughed all the way to the classroom. As soon as we sat down, I pulled out a scrap of paper and started sketching an energy chart for her. “Look,” I said, “the Eclipse Pack’s base energy value is 18.7, and the Shadow Pack’s conversion rate is 0.63. Use the cross formula here, and you’ll get the wolf spirit’s stability threshold … ”
Emily’s eyes lit up. “Amanda, you’re amazing! This is way easier than what the teacher explained!”

Just then, the wolf spirit energy teacher walked in with his lesson plan. Emily quickly shoved the notes into her bag.
I opened my textbook, pretending to follow along, but under the desk, I pulled out my translation notes. I already knew everything in this class by heart. Might as well use the time to finish more of the Bureau’s work.
I had barely translated two lines when the teacher’s sharp voice broke the silence. “Amanda!”
I looked up. He was frowning, pointing at the board. “You’re not paying attention. Come solve this problem in front of everyone-and explain your process!”
Every head turned toward me. Most of them looked like they expected me to fail.
Alice whispered, “Here we go again. He’s just picking on you.”
