There have been rumors for many years that fairies weren't good creatures and that you don’t want to mess with them. It may be true that they are powerful and not ones to mess with, but that woman who saved me from the rogues was anything but mean and nasty as the

“Do you think you can do that later?” | asked, sounding impatient. “This is very important.” She frowned, staring at me with a lethal look.
“So is this,” she said firmly.
| already told her through a mindlink what had happened; it was infuriating that she was being difficult right now.
| had to hold myself back from grabbing her and dragging her out of this room, but that wouldn't end well for either of us.
She could see the struggle in my eyes because she sighed and turned to face Kay who was looking between the two of us worriedly.
“Let's meet in the library this afternoon around 4 pm and we can study together,” she said to Kay gently.
Kay nodded.

I'm worried Jazzy could come after you.
Keeping you safe is my priority right now.” ‘I can’t miss any more school” she said, shaking her head.
“I'm not asking you to. But | think it'd be wise if maybe one of my gammas stayed with you to protect you while you're here.” “What?” She gasped. “No way. The others will start talking. Gammas ~ have the pack symbol on their uniforms. They'll know he's one of ~ yours.” i n “Then we can have one of your father's Gammas come and—" “| don't want someone following me around all day. You don’t think | can handle myself?” She asked, and | could hear the hurt in her voice.
“She's a dark witch, Lila. The most
powerful one to exist,” | said firmly.
"And I'm a Volana.” "A Volana who is weakened because of the wolfsbane in your system,” | shot back. “You couldn't even handle yourself with Xander. You expect me to think you can handle yourself with Jazzy the dark witch?” | saw the hurt flash on her face, and she took a step back.
“| expect you to have a little more faith in me,” she said in return, her voice softening as she became consumed with the pain.
“Lila... you know | have faith in you,” | said gently, stepping toward her. “But | need you to trust me.” She looked up at me and | saw how red her face was getting as soon as our eyes met. | loved that | still had
