Luna’s POY
I was literally shaking
There was no other way to describe what I was feeling right now. Every part of mor frit tense wood ser water staring at the waterfall that looked far more terrifying now that I knew Kno actually experted are so Before this moment, watching him stand beneath the rushing water had been slightly impressive but who was supposed to do it, the entire thing once again seemed like the worst idea aryter had ever wan
My stomach was twisting itself into knots, my palms were sweaty, and I was begining to seribresly that had led me here today. I had wanted help controlling my strength, but at no poite had I imagined involve standing beneath enough water to potentially crush me into the ground. Looking at the w convinced that Knox had secretly lost his mind years ago and nobody had bothered telling Hen
“Take your clothes off,” he said, and my eyes widened so fast they almost hurt.
“What?” I practically squeaked.
The look on my face must have been ridiculous because Knox immediately let out a short laugh. “I’m not telling you wer naked,” he said. “Relax”
I narrowed my eyes suspiciously, and Knox shook his head before continuing, “I’m pretty sure you’ve got sports bra or something underneath all that,” he said. “The lighter your clothes are, the better. Besides, unless you plan on walking verk ve Blackridge soaking wet, you probably don’t want to ruin everything you’re wearing,”
I opened my mouth to argue, then I closed it again. Unfortunately, he had a point, and I hated that he had a point
Slowly, I glanced down at my clothes. Between the waterfall and whatever crazy training session Knox had planner, there was absolutely no chance I was leaving here dry, and if my hoodie and shirt got soaked, I’d be miserable for the entire ing back. Letting out a frustrated sigh, I reluctantly reached for rhy hoodie and pulled it over my head. After that I grabend.co cropped shirt underneath and removed that too,
The moment I was left standing there in only my sports bra, I instantly regretted everything
Even though I knew there was nothing inappropriate about it, I suddenly felt far too exposed. My arms automatkay crossed over my stomach while my mind started overthinking every possible thing it could. I wasn’t exactly why, by the re was a difference between wearing a sports bra during track practice and standing alone in the woods with a six-foot- something werewolf covered in tattoos. While I was busy trying not to think about how exposed I felt. Know started walking back toward me through the shallow water. The closer he got, the more nervous I became, and by thetime he stopper, feet away, I was practically rooted to the spot.
He stretched out his hand. “Get over here,” he said.
I stared at his hand, at the water, and then back at him, and I didn’t move. The hesitation must have been obvious bac Knox’s expression changed slightly. The amusement faded just enough for something more serious to replace
“Luna,” he said.
I looked up immediately because the tone of his voice caught my attention. He sounded serious. “Trust me going to let you get hurt.”
The words made something inside me loosen slightly. Still, I found myself asking the question anyway
“Promise?” I asked. The second the word left my mouth, I wanted to take it back browse I sounded like a child

“That’s the problem, Knox replied.
I gritted my teeth. The current shoved against my legs again, and I stumbled slightly. Panic immediately surged through me, and seeing my reaction, Knox shook his head.
“What I’m trying to teach you only works if you stop fighting everything,” he said.
I wanted to tell him that he wasn’t making any sense, but instead I focused on staying upright. Unfortunately, the more I tried to relax, the less it worked.
Every failed attempt only made me more frustrated, and eventually I threw my hands up. “Then just talk.” I yelled. “Maybe that will help.”
For a moment Knox studied me. Then he stepped closer, and without warning, he grabbed my hand again. The second his fingers wrapped around mine, I felt my entire body relax slightly, and I hated how comforting that realization was.
Knox seemed to notice too because he gave me a knowing look.
Then he finally started explaining. “The same way you’re scared of this current,” he said, “is the same way you’re scared of your strength.”
