Ella’s POV I was in class, but really I was not really there. My thoughts were elsewhere, building castles in the air. I just couldn’t get myself to stop thinking about them. We’d had such an amazing conversation at lunch today. I was still replaying it over and over in my head. Opening up to Phoenix about my rejection had turned out way better than I had thought. Initially, I thought that if Phoenix ever knew that I had been rejected he’d look at me different, and he wouldn’t see me the same again, or love me anymore. But nope, I was wrong. He still looked at me like he always did. He still made me feel like I was the only girl in the world and I just loved that… I loved him. Him and his brother apparently didn’t care that I had been a rejected wolf. They spent the entire lunch talk
