I wake up completely disoriented but satisfied as Hell. I sit up and I look around. I am by the lake still. A smile blooms on my face. The day had been one of the best in my life. It would have been the best if the threat of something ominous wasn't looming over us. Other than that, it was perfect.

I stretch my limbs and enjoy that sweet fatigue I still feel on my body. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that we are both virgins that makes us insane with want and uncontrollable passion. I simply can't get enough of him, of every inch of his body, of every little expression on his face. And my body can't get enough of his, no matter how many times he makes me come screaming his name.

Thinking of the delicious things he did to me all through the night, my body comes to life. There is one thing missing: Jinyoung. He is not by my side. I glance at the lake hoping to see him swim in the water with his strong arms and then come to me - hopefully naked - with droplets of water running down his perfect body. But the lake is still like a mirror. Perhaps he has gone to get some breakfast. I mind link him but I get nothing.

"No!" I spring up.

"I can't reach Henrar," Antiope is worried too.

"That's cause they are out of the border," I scream in my head and go hunting for my clothes.

And there on the carefully folded pile of my clothes, I see a note. I grab it and see Jinyoung's careful, calculated handwriting that I had traced with my fingers when I read all those files he gave me. Even when I thought I hated him, I loved his handwriting. I unfold the paper.

"Little girl,

Once more I had to deceive you. But you are my everything and can't stand the thought of anything happening to you.

Stay close to Thane, help Yugyeom.

And think of me. I will be thinking of you.

Jag älskar dig,

Jinyoung"

"GODDAMN IT!"I yell into the morning sky.

"Are you dressed?" I hear Thane behind some bushes.

I grunt and I put on my clothes quickly. I head for the house and I feel Thane fall behind me.

"You will be guarding Jihee," I order.

"Jihee will be staying in the packhouse where she is safe," Thane fires back. "And I know she will cause she is not a stubborn female determined to give our Alpha a heart attack."

"Your Alpha will hope to have died of a heart attack before he faces me again."

"Still, he will be haunting me from the grave if anything happened to you. I fucked up once. I am not doing it again. Mostly because it will hurt Jihee to see your sorry ass in pain or dead."

"Glad to know you like me that much," I spit and go faster as soon as the packhouse is in sight.

I go up the Alpha office only to find Yugyeom there. He is over some steaming cup of coffee and looks at a pile of papers in despair.

"Great! You are here! I can go back to sleep now."

"The eternal sleep is more like it!" I yell once more.
