I gaze up at the midnight sky, can't find a single star
there are times when I miss the light but I'm not afraid of the dark

she shook her head very quickly at the suggestion there was anything else.
"no, i'm fine. adam's a little bruised and battered too, but nothing serious. couple of bite wounds. besides, even if he was, leandro will fix him up. they're both fully functioning." both more functional than i am at the moment, she added silently. it didn't need to be said.
"and anyway, since when am i not off the rails anyway?" though typically dauntless, it was true that she was always jittery anyway, whatever her caffeine intake had been that morning.
the norwegian declined to sit beside her alpha, instead deciding to pace up and down as she continued to talk.
"and don't even get me started on aurora. she was sat on my porch this morning... just watching. oh, the moment she gives me a damn reason i swear... " she cut herself off before she could finish that. faith had heard the spiel before, and they both knew the chance a certain somebody would get killed in the scuffle was too high for skylar to entertain that idea. she'd have to bite her tongue and look away as always.
"but otherwise, we're all fine. night patrol from 10pm to 6;15am was totally clear. not a whiff of trouble," she added, ironically. "then next thing i know is i'm on my kitchen counter drinking hale's utterly dreadful kaffe and this bloodcurdling screech goes up and we're both tumbling out of the door... i couldn't keep up with adam, so i got there maybe twenty seconds after he did. got there just in time to break it up and send that filth crawling back the way it came. "
skylar nordskov side-eyed the brunette beside her.
"so because the git's not dead, that means you're staying behind a locked door for the next few days. you understand?" she patted the alpha's shoulder, somewhat shakily.
her tone wasn't the gentlest, sure, but for the most part, skylar meant well.
everything my mind wants in conflict with my heart
fighting back surrender but every day i'm falling more apart

leading the way to the kitchen, pris couldn't help but study the police officer a little further. she was half a head taller, undoubtedly stronger. not ideal, but not exactly hard to accomplish either. with her slim limbs and somewhat gentle nature, pris really wasn't the strongest. not long after she'd finally been released from the rank of omega, she'd convinced bayard to teach her to fight. she'd lost to the techie over and over again, no matter how much he pulled his punches. yet he lost to her every time they played chess, even though the older male was easily one of the smarter wolves of the pack. after about six months of lessons, she'd given up and decided to make herself valuable in another way. as a half-blood, her body may have been weak, but her mind certainly wasn't.
the redhead pulled two mugs from the cupboard, placing the white stoneware on the breakfast bar she'd only recently vacated and powering on the coffee machine on the adjacent counter. it was an old and temperamental machine, but she prided herself on her ability to get the thing to work. originally it had been a rather unconventional wedding present from her mother's cousin, blair's mom, but she secretly assumed the woman had simply been keen to get rid of it. that woman always had been pretty weird. apparently it's rubbed off on blair too, she thought, grimacing at the thought of that banana yellow bandana.
still, it made coffee. she refused to spend money to buy a new one when it could pay for something more valuable.
avoiding a proper response to theo's assertions, if only for a few moments, the widow glanced over her shoulder to meet eyes with the detective.
"so, how do you take your coffee?"
i saw so many places, did things that i did
and with every broken bone i'll swear i lived
