They Sent Me Away, I Never Came Back

On graduation night, the four boys I'd grown up with talked me into playing Truth or Dare. When it was Lyra Ashford's turn-the girl our pack had only recently found and brought home-she suggested that everyone reveal their first-choice academy. One by one, all four of them showed the same answer. Frostland Academy, three thousand miles away in the Northern Pack. Damian slid an application across the table to me with a smile. "Dare to come with us? Once we get to the North, I'll give you my mate mark." So I signed Frostland Academy's early-entry contract for its wolf-core research program.
