I slide down the wall beside the door of Hector and Abigale's suite. Hector is pacing the floor of the hallway in front of me.
It has been a week since Sophia's death, and Abigale is no closer to leaving the suite in the pack house. Even though my room is several doors down, I still haven't seen her. Hector tried to carry her out of the room this morning, telling her that she needed to go to school.
I could hear her screams from the kitchen, and I raced up the stairs, assuming she was in danger. But when I reached their rooms on the top floor, I saw Abigale biting and clawing at her father's face. Hector did his best to hold onto her, but she managed to squirm out of his arms. Her little feet landed softly on the ground, and she raced into the suite, locking the door behind her.
Today is supposed to be Hector's first day as Beta, and now he is late because Abigale has locked herself in the room.
