“Hi, Alpha Sterling,” I tried to sound cheerful, even though I felt like I failed. “Can you please ask your Beta to pick me up at 7:30 instead? I don't want to sign anything...yet," I explain. "I just want to give it a try."
My heart is racing and I am unable to sleep as I process what I’m about to do tomorrow. What am I going to wear, how am I going to survive in a building full of apex predators?
Staring at the clock across the room, I watch the minutes tick by slowly.
Why does it feel that I’ve jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire?
A brisk banging on the door jolts me awake. I don’t know when I fell asleep, but by the way my eyes are burning, it couldn’t have been that long ago.
“5:59” I groan as I peek through my swollen eyelids.
Maybe they’ll go away, or Ha
