Emily's Pov
My heart fills with anxiety upon discovering Nina's plans. Why is she working with Alpha Frank Frost? Is Jimmy Doorson also involved in this? There are so many questions swirling in my head.
I stay hidden for a few more minutes before returning to my room. On the way back, I hear the howl of a wolf outside the castle. The howl reminds me of Benson, and for a moment, a desire to go to Benson's quarters runs through my entire body. Benson's room is on the top floor of the castle, far from mine, which is on the third floor.
It takes me a long time to fall asleep when I finally reach my room. Nina's words are echoing in my mind. I end up dreaming again about my old life.
I was in my old house with Jimmy when my phone rang. My mother's tearful voice exploded through the line when I answered.
"Mom? What happened?" I asked, concerned and frightened. My mother's crying pained me to the bone, and I asked again what had happened.
