Currently I was in my room, Fally prepared for the next event. I pulled a black t–shirt over my head, smoothing it down before reaching for my ram. Logan had insisted on going to a har tonight, saying we deserved a break after two weeks of grueling training. I hadn’t been thrilled about the idea, but the more had thought about it, the more I had realized this could be my chance,

I met Logan in the next fifteen minutes, my heart pounding with every step I took toward the hidden gate. The night air was cool against my skim, a stark contrast to the heat burning in my chest. Was it excitement? Pear? I wasn’t sire.
I had timed it perfectly. Just as I had predicted, the guards were shifting positions, leaving a small gap in their watch, I moved quickly but carefully, sticking to the shadows, my breath steady despite the adrenaline coursing through me.
Reaching the gate, I scanned the area once more before slipping through. The moment I was on the other side, a strange sense of relist washed over me. I

Logan was already waiting for me by his car, leaping against it with an easy smirk. His dark jeans and fitted shitt made him look effortlessly put together, as if he hadn’t just spent the entire day pushing me to my limits in the gy
