Chapter 44

  I wake up in the nurse’s office with a throbbing headache and look around the room.

  Flint is with me.

  ‘What happened?’

  ‘Moss decided dodgeball wasn’t over yet… he ran up behind you and threw the ball at her head with all his strength and knocked you out. He is currently being scolded in the principal’s office.’

  Nina runs into the nurse station and takes my hand.

  ‘I heard what happened. He should not have done that. I’m so sorry. I will talk to Moss and make sure he does nothing stupid again.’

  ‘Nina, it’s not your fault. You don’t need to apologise.’

  ‘He just doesn’t like we are friends again, but he will have to accept it.’

  Claire runs in, takes my hand from Nina’s grip. ‘Boo-boo, are you okay?’

  ‘Yeah, every minute that goes by, the pain subsides.’

  The nurse walks in, ‘That’s because you have your wolf now you will heal quickly.’ She smiles. ‘Do you feel okay to return to class?’
