"That's wonderful," | said, genuinely happy for them. "Congratulations."
He beamed atand extended his hand. "Thank you," he said. "And | wish you the best of luck with your
pregnancy."
| shook his hand, a warm feeling spreading through me. "Thank you," | replied, touched by his kind words. "I
could use all the luck I can get."
With a final nod and a friendly smile, we parted ways, and | continued on my path back to Jessica's room. The
encounter with the man had leftfeeling a bit lighter, a glimmer of hope amidst the uncertainty.

the way she ate so ravenously to heal her body.
And in that moment, | felt more connected to my best friend than ever.
"Jessica," | murmured, rushing forward. She held her arms out for me, and | practically threw myself into her,
tears streaming down my cheeks. "We were so worried."
"I know," she said, burying her face in my hair.
When we pulled away, | couldn't help but chuckle. "Your hair..."
"Don't even mention it," she said, running her hand along her shaved head. "I might need a wig."
"I think you can rock the bald style," Lori chimed in with a laugh. "It suits you."
Jessica stuck her tongue out, and | couldn't help but laugh. "It's good to see you awake. Really."
She nodded. "You know, | was just telling Lori, | remember seeing a dog jump out into the road... | swerved into
the oncoming lane, and didn't see the truck barreling toward me. But | don't remember anything after that."
As Jessica spoke, | felt my stomach do a flip. A dog... It broughtback to last night, when | saw that strange

It wasn't possible that it was the swerewolf, right?
"What did the dog look like?" | blurted out without even thinking. "Was it big, or...?"
Jessica furrowed her brow, shootinga confused look. "I don't remember," she admitted. "Why does it matter?
It was a dog. Little shit almost gotkilled."

At that moment, Lori and | exchanged looks, and | knew that Lori hadn't mentioned anything yet; probably
waiting for me. She gavea brief nod, and | knew it was time.

Finally, the moment had cto share the truth with Jessica, and | took a deep breath. "Jess," | began, my voice
steady, "I think there's something you deserve to know. Something that I... Something that I did while you were
asleep."
She opened her eyes and looked atwith curiosity, her gaze wide and expectant. "What is it, Nina?"
| met her gaze, my heart pounding in my chest.
"Jessica," | said, "you're a werewolf now."
