Alina walked alongside Mason and Liam onto the lacrosse field and the first thing that Alina's eyes landed on is Brett Talbot. Specifically, a shirtless and sweaty Brett Talbot as he plays lacrosse with his team. All of whom were also sweaty and shirtless. "Damn..." Alina lets out a low breath.
"Right," Mason nods slowly in agreement.
"Why can't our lacrosse team look like this?" Alina questions.
"Maybe we should transfer schools."
"Hey!" Liam exclaims, hitting Mason on the arm.
"Ow! What?"
"I'm on the lacrosse team." Liam gives Mason and Alina a look of hurt.
"Okay... Good job, buddy?" Alina furrows her brows, unsure of what he wants her to say. She gives him a pat on the back before continuing to walk toward the sidelines of the field. Liam lets out a frustrated sigh before following after her, Mason right behind him.
"So, he's a werewolf too?" Mason asks excitedly.
"Yup," Liam answers.
"Oh, this just gets better and better!" Mason breathes out. Brett walks over to them, taking a break from practice. And, before he has the chance to share pleasantries with Alina, Liam shoves his phone in Brett's face. Showing a picture of Tracy.
"Cute, but never seen her."
"Could Satomi have turned her without you knowing?" Liam questions further.
"Hi, Alina." Brett smiles, completely ignoring the question. "How are you?"
"Good, thanks. And, you?"
"I'm good as well."
"That's good to hear..." There was silence as the two smiled at one another. Liam is unable to stop himself as he rolls his eyes. Alina continues to smile, raising her brows in expectance, "you gonna answer Liam's question?"
Brett chuckles slightly. "Right, yeah. After the dead pool, Satomi's not exactly doing much recruiting," Brett's tone turns sharp as he faces Liam to answer his initial question.
"That's how it works?" Mason asks, shocked. "Alpha werewolves just go around biting people?"
"Or you can be born, like me and my sister. Satomi took us in after our family died in a fire-"
"Guys," Liam cuts Brett off before he could continue any further. "I think I just found something." Alina looked over his shoulder as Liam zoomed in on the photo of Tracy. Specifically, zooming on the necklace she was wearing.
"What? You wanna go shopping or something?" This earns Alina a glare.

"Sure you know where we're going?" Brett asks for the thousandth time as he walks through the forest beside Alina and Mason, following behind Liam who is currently trying to find the hole he and Alina fell into the other night.
"I know where I am," Liam answers sharply.
"So do I. Middle of nowhere," Brett snaps back.
"This doesn't look very familiar, Li," Alina speaks up while glancing around at the forest surrounding her.
"Well, it was- it was dark," Liam says, flustered, due to the nickname he has not heard in what feels like forever.
"Wait..." Brett comes to an abrupt stop, leaving Mason, Liam, and Alina to come to a stop as well, turning to face Brett with furrowed brows and curious gazes. "Do you smell that?" He looks to Liam and Alina specifically.
