Chapter 23

• I wish I didn’t have to face Sapphire again, but there was no escaping her so long as I was in this pack. I flopped on the bench close to the pack house and gulped down half the contents of my bottle after a fifteen minutes run in the early hours of the morning, and Sapphire slumped into the same sit barely ten seconds later in her workout outfit.
• I have been exercising more lately and I only just realized how much I enjoyed the early morning jogs. It helps me reduce anxiety and stress from all the problems around me. I haven’t seen Daryl at all since that day and even though I hate him for what he did, I have become curious as to what happened to him. What if Slade had done something terrible to him? I still remember Daryl’s warnings and Slade’s threats.
• Daryl is the reason Slade may never trust me. I had read a bit about his pack after that day but there wasn’t so much to read. Dark Wolf detested Lakewood pack and more than half of their members were slaving away in the pack’s dungeons. Slade especially didn’t want their name mentioned within his pack.
