The light was so bright I thought I was legally blind for a few seconds. Then when the light died out, I could finally see again. I blinked twice to refocus again. And I finally saw Isobel's surprised expression. Her little face was lit up, her mouth opened wide and her eyes widened. That was the first time I saw this kind of expression on her face, oddly it was really suitable for her. I tried to get to know more about this, but obviously, she had something she didn't tell me.
"What was that?"
"It's just a test."
"A test for what?"
Isobel didn't answer my question. I was feeling uneasy when I was about to open my mouth to ask her again. I heard Dunstan's high-pitched voice.
"Alpha Vernon was by the door! He passed out!"
My mind went blank after hearing his name, and the fact that he passed out. I forgot all about the test, my hand was still bleeding. But nothing could tear my attention from the news.
