Chapter 141-By His Side And I Am On The Wrong Side

"The food they prepare is so good," Jenny said, elbowing me. On my right was Jenny, and on my left was Lucy. The others were also seated around the table having breakfast, while some were lounging on the couches and sofas.
All in all, it was a cozy little setting. Thankfully, Salem and Sydney were too busy impressing their minions with grand stories about their pack and father.
We were all dressed in tracksuits and had grabbed our bags for the first mission of the day. Kaye had informed us early in the morning to get ready for the search for herbs.
I was pretty excited. Not only for the first task but also to see him again. It was odd how he had managed to spark something in my heart with his consistent showcase of care and affection. The kiss we shared last night didn’t make me regret anything. For the first time since that night, a touch didn’t freak me out.
"If Professor Kaye asks you to make teams for the search, can you please pair me with Gavin?" Lucy asked, making me turn my head toward her. I noticed how little she had eaten during the meal. She kept staring at Gavin, her eyes filling with tears whenever her gaze lingered on him.
He seemed unbothered when he wasn’t directly talking to her. But I couldn’t blame him. The betrayal must have been too much for him.
"I will," I reassured her.
After breakfast, we all left the guesthouse and waited in the front garden for Kaye to arrive.
