Lila POV
I smile at Dove, and she seems to look curious about something, but we are distracted as Caleb comes back out of his bedroom. He sits on the sofa next to her, and she rests her head on his shoulder.
“So who is your lucky partner?”
“The other girl in the trials. She hasn’t said much. She seems like the silent but completely deadly type,” she explains with a sigh. “I gave up trying to make conversation with her, but I can hope she is an expert hunter.”
“At least you don’t have a newbie over here,” Caleb counters, pointing at me.
“Hey, I’m not that bad at fighting and figuring out demons,” I reply shortly. Truthfully, I’m clueless—but I’m a quick learner.
He laughs, and Dove shakes her head.
“I can help you train, you know, if you want. I’ve been training since I was young.”
