Cadeon My heart jumps at the sight of Lilieth, and I'm tired of denying that this woman doesn't have an effect on me. The effects of sharing my blood with her disappeared—at first, I thought it was the fact that we hadn't gotten close to each other since the final exam several days ago, but now that I'm close to her, I'm certain. In many ways, it's a relief and I feel more in control of myself and normal. On the other hand, it allowed me to see her for who she was—to understand a little bit of what goes on in her head. I don't know why that's so important to me. Maybe it isn't. Maybe it's curiosity. Dammit. I've been quiet for too long. "Miss Grimwylde." "Alpha Cadeon," she replies, not missing a beat. What do I say to her now? I've never experienced this tongue-tied feeling
