Before she could go back to sleep, a loud horn startled her, and she opened her eyes in shock, cursing the horn and whoever was blowing it. She grudgingly tossed and turned on the bed as the alarm continued to reverberate around the pack house.
"Oh, f**k it!" She cursed again and sat up, rubbing her eyes and grumbling.
She squinted at the clock beside her bed and saw that it read five a.m.
