    Embarrassed, I forced a smile and said, "Alpha, after all we grew up together. Even if we can''t be lovers, can''t we at least be friends?"


    Benjamin replied, coldly, "Sorry, I''m not interested."


    Without another word, Benjamin stood up and instructed the waiter, "Please pack this up."


    The waiter quickly packed everything and handed it to him. "Alpha, it''s all ready." Benjamin took the take-out and walked away without sparing me a nce.


    1 refused to give up and chased after him. “Alpha, I was foolish before and made mistakes. I know I was wrong. Can you forget everything that happened and forgive me? Can we go back to how we were before?"


    Benjamin, clearly impatient, bared his sharp wolf-like teeth at me. "Stop bothering me! If you don''t, I''ll deal with you myself."


    The thought of him transforming into a wolf to punish me terrified me, making my whole body shake.


    His words shattered all of my illusions.


    I had hoped that if we both acted as if nothing had happened, we could return to being as close as we once were-friends, as if nothing had ever changed.


    But I hadpletely forgotten-he wasn''t just my childhood friend. He was the Alpha of Midnight Pack.


    "Alpha, I''m sorry, I... I quickly lowered my head in apology.


    Benjamin didn''t listen to me. He opened the car door, got in, and drove off without even a second nce.


    a deep sense of frustration. Why was this happening? Why?


    I felt


    We had never been like this before.


    Now, he wouldn''t even spare me a single word!


    When did everything begin to change?


    My mind drifted back to when Hayley first arrived at Midnight Pack.


    My hands clenched into fists. It was all because of Hayley!


    "Hayley! That b*tch!" I muttered, furious,


    She must have done something to make Benjamin hate me so much.

    I walked into the exam room with confidence, feeling


    Before the official time was up, I hadpleted all the questions and left the


    room.


    I returned to the Southwells'' house, dropped my bag, and headed upstairs. Henry followed me closely, threw his bag down, and went straight to his room to y video games.


    Even from upstairs, I could still hear the sound of his game.


    I closed my door, shutting out the noise, and dialed my grandmother''s number. "Grandma, I''lle home in a couple of days to keep youpany."


    Before I could finish, Grandma quickly interrupted, ''Hayz, there''s no need toe home. Your grandfather and I are going on a trip, and we''ll be gone for quite some time."


    Iwas taken aback. "When did you leave? Why didn''t you tell me?"


    Grandmaughed and said, "It was ast-minute decision, so we didn''t get a chance to let you know. You should stay at Midnight Pack. No need toe back to Shadow Pack."


    Seeing she was set on it, I sighed. "Alright, stay safe ande back soon."


    After hanging up, Bill quickly asked, "How did it go? Did anything slip?"


    Dorothy smiled mysteriously. "Who do you think I am Of course, nothing slipped. Hayz will never suspect that we''re heading to Midnight Pack in a couple of days. When she sees us, she''ll be so surprised."
