She has endured the unthinkable, but now she is a high school senior graduating with honors, the senior class president, and Valentvaledictorian of her graduating class. She's been a ward of the court since she was seven years old. Now she's aging out of the only system that raised her. At a crossroads in her life, she must make the right decision or risk everything. "I can appreciate the simplicity of childhood. The simple pleasures that childhood offers. A time in life so simple, it's often taken for granted. Until today, it is what I was led to believe..." Black girls need to know they are magical, and they are capable of accomplishing anything they put their minds to. That this world isn't big enough or strong enough to hold them back or keep them down. They will always arise victoriously, they are strong, they are passionate, they are intelligent, and they are beautiful. They are whatever they want to be!

"It's always been you, Phoenix. You are the one who makes me the happiest. Just being in the same room as you gives me god damn butterflies. Hearing the sound of your voice makes me feel safe and protected. And when you left for college, home didn't feel like home anymore. That's when I realized that home wasn't just a house or a place you live at...for me, it was you." Scarlett Wolf has the looks of her father but the sass, class, and kindest soul from her mother. She wears her heart on her sleeve and there is only one person on earth who takes up the biggest part of it. The one who she has been desperately in love with since diapers and the one who has never seen her as anything other than just a little girl. Phoenix Zeller has the rugged looks, charm, and cluelessness from his father but the passionate and protective heart from his mother. He's serious and stubborn at times, but when he finally opens up, he is the biggest sweetheart you'll ever know. And just when he thinks he has a good grasp on life, a little "Wolf" will come along to flip his world upside down in the best way possible. **This is book two of my "Out of" series. Book one is called "Out of Left Field" which is about the parents of the characters in this story. It is currently on the Chapters app, but I will be slowly transferring it over to Wattpad. You do not have to read book one first. Just know that there may be a few very simple details you would be missing.** Copyright © 2020 by Jenna Stephens All rights reserved.
