章 21: Chapter 21: An Unlikely Friend

“So what about you?” I asked, clearing my throat and only raising her suspicion.

“Nothing half as interesting as you”, she said with a knowing smile.

Rolling my eyes I gestured over to the boy lying in a hospital bed and asked, “so what happened to him?”

“He was out of it when he showed up so we didn’t ask any questions. We’ll know when he wakes up.”

I nodded in understanding, ignoring her eyes boring into my head.

“What?” I asked, turning back at her.

“So are you going to be with the Alphas now?”

“I guess,” I said, shrugging.

“What’s that like?” she asked, curiously.

“Boring. I’d rather be in the workhouse picking fights,” I joked. She giggled, her face breaking out in a wide smile.

“What’s going on here?” Noah asked, strolling up to us as he eyed the two of us distrustfully.

“Nothing,” Dana replied, her smile fading quickly.

“How do you two know each other?” Sarai asked, appearing by his side to no one’s surprise.
