"I got in touch with Ruby and Jade," Kai said as they walked out of class. Nora balked.
"Are they mad at me?"
"A little," Kai admitted. "More for being reckless than anything else. They really like you."
Nora worried for them. If the Alpha suspected they knew anything, he could use the Alpha command and make them confess. They would get into so much trouble. And Dante too.
"I have to give it back," Nora said.
"I don't think it'll be that simple."
Kai was right. As usual. Nora had suspected that the Alpha didn’t care about what was stolen, but more than someone was able to get in to steal it. Twilight settled in around them, surrounding them in the glow of the setting sun.
"It's going to be a beautiful night," Kai said. "Maybe you should spend it outside instead of couped up in the library."
"Don't judge me," Nora began to argue. Kai stopped walking and grabbed her shoulders. He knelt to be eye level with her.
