    "She was asking me really meticulous questions," Sage said. "For example: Who do I love the most? What would I be willing to do to have Professor Emmet as a fated mate?"

    Before she could continue, I had to stop her. "What do you mean by fated mate?" I asked, confused.

    "Look, Hnie, I know now from the announcements that you’re a mermaid and you’re mated to all the trainers, but I didn’t know that back then. I’m really sorry. But these were her exact words. She said, What if there’s a way for you to feel the mate bond with Emmet—even make it a fated mate bond? She asked me if I was willing to do anything, even something dark, just to feel that bond."

    She paused, clearly unsettled. "All these questions—I don’t even know how to exin it. It felt like she was preparing me for something. But trust me, I didn’t know about you and Emmet." She immediately started trying to exin herself.

    "No, it’s fine. It’s not your fault," I said gently. "But can you write down the questions for me? Like, just text me the exact words if you can remember them?"

    She nodded and picked up her phone to type.

    While she was busy, I caught Penn looking at her a little too long. It made me smile. If he could move on and be with someone like her, all of us friends would finally have peace. She was kind, and the fact that she refused to fake a mate bond, even when she clearly loved Emmet, proved she wasn’t a bad person.

    ’ A Forged a mate bond. Hnie, focus on that," my wolf snapped in my head, snapping me out of my thoughts. I looked down, then nced up again toward the distance where I saw my mates standing with Gavin. I guessed they were checking on him.

    Still, I knew Sage’s answers mattered. Once she finished typing the questions and we all finished eating, it was time to head out again for another round of ying.

    But I had to be more careful now.

    "You guys go ahead. Take care of every student. I’ll take Hnie home," Norman said, stepping forward and gently taking my hand.

    Whenever the trainers were around, every student would nce at us, taking in every detail. I didn’t mind. Maybe it was a signnguage that this she-wolf had not just powerful mates, but also strong allies in the brothers.

    I walked away with Norman, and once we were in the car, I noticed he looked slightly tense.

    "Oh? What’s going on? Did something happen?" I asked.

    "No, I was just thinking, Are we really ready for war if the X Codex attacks us?" he said, his voice tight. I nodded and looked at the road ahead.

    "I think we are. At the very least, we need to bring that man out. He’s been hiding for far too long," I said, remembering how this had all started months ago, and how it still hadn’t ended. We needed to do something, before we ran out of time.

    "Anyway, let’s not talk about it. You’re gonna go home, take a shower, eat some food, and then rest. Remember, we are not taking any risk this time," Norman said as he parked the car in the lot.

    However, the moment we got out, I saw a familiar face that instantly made me feel off.

    "What is she doing here?" I grunted, spotting Lucy standing near the door with a shoulder bag and an overly excited expression as soon as she saw Norman.

    "Professor Norman," she smiled, using the fakest tone I’d ever heard.

    "I thought you were going to meet me at the Academy," Norman said, and I instantly started to wonder what was going on.

    "Oh. Hi, Hnie," she added, pretending she had just noticed me.

    "What are you doing here?" I asked bluntly. I didn’t like her. She was a troublemaker. After the way she hurt Lamar by pushing him into the water, I had no interest in entertaining her presence.

    "I’vee for therapy. Did you forget? Professor Norman offered me therapy," she said, and my heart skipped a beat.

    She wasn’t wrong. I had almost forgotten. But still, why did it have to be him giving her therapy? The thought of them alone in his office unsettled me.

    "So, I’ll wait for you in the office then. You can go change and probably shower. You must be tired. I heard you’ve been fighting the monsters since morning," Lucy continued,pletely ignoring my presence as she addressed my husband.

    I narrowed my eyes. Norman gave me a quick nce before looking away, clearly noticing my sharp gaze.

    "No, it’s okay," he said quickly. "We’ll just start the session now so it can end soon. I need to be with Hnie to make sure she eats." He was quick to include me in the n before things got ugly.

    Norman had walked past us into the mansion, clearly trying to avoid my angry stares. Once he was gone, I turned to face Lucy with my arms crossed over my chest.

    "Why so hostile, Hnie? Remember we used to be friends," Lucy said, tapping her foot against the ground.

    I looked at the clothes she was wearing, and I didn’t like them. They weren’t appropriate, not around a professor and definitely not around my husband. She had on a tiny skirt that showed off nearly everything from the back, and her top was so low-cut she might as well have just taped her nipples. That was all she was covering.

    She caught me eyeing her outfit and as soon as a smirk yed on her lips, I decided to wipe it off.

    "If you want clothes, let me know. I have some I don’t use anymore. I’ll let you borrow them," I said, taunting her for choosing to dress like that for a therapy session.

    She rolled her eyes dramatically. "Jealousy looks so good on you. But you’ve got every right to be jealous. You know, I’m highly in heat these days," she said, cing her fingers near her mouth like we were ying some ridiculous cosy.

    And just like that, she sparked a fresh wave of anger and jealousy in me.
