I’m already awake when my alarm goes off at five. Groaning, I sit
up and rub the sleep from my eyes, trying to ease the grogginess. As though
it has a mind of its own, my body is already moving through the steps to get
me out the door and to the gym. I pull on my shorts, brush my teeth, and
soon, I’m pounding my feet on the concrete outside my building as I run to
the gym.
Lately, something’s been keeping me from sleeping. It’s this
nagging feeling of anticipation, like something’s just around the corner. My
dad used to say that was your wolf’s instinct, and ignoring it could be the
last thing you ever did. I push thoughts of my dad out of my head—it’s
never worth it to linger on them. I always end up with a messy head.
The gym is practically empty when I arrive, and I move through my
sets methodically. I like it better when it’s empty and I can get in and out.
The sun is just coming up when I make it back to my apartment building. I
shower, dress for the visit to headquarters, and walk down the street to
Bigby’s condo.
I’ve barely knocked my fist against the wood when he opens up. If
the look on his face is anything to go by, he’s got a wolf’s instinct about this
meeting, too. I can sense his unease, but he looks just as polished as ever,
and he gives his cat, luna, a final pat on the head before stepping out into
the hallway.
His apartment is slightly nicer than mine, with long, marble
hallways that glisten in the morning sun, but he also usually has more
visitors than me. Bigby enjoys the occasional overnight guest and also has
his sister and her kids over most nights when we’re not on a mission. His
sister, Bailey, has a husband who’s in the agency like us and is gone a lot.
Either Bigby just doesn’t like to talk about the brother-in-law, or
there’s nothing to say. There are a lot of positions at the agency that are so
top-secret the operatives don’t even know the full extent of their jobs.
But secrecy is important in our line of work. First, not all humans
know about shifters or the paranormal in general, and second, corruption is
at an all-time high, with various paranormals getting tired of adhering to
anti-violence policies against humans when many humans continue to hunt
us for sport.
“Think Percy will be on time today?” Bigby says, pulling me away
from my thoughts of work. He turns to lock his door behind him, working
on several different security measures. We’ll likely be sent on a mission
today, so he already has a duffel bag and a pack, like me. It makes sense
that he wants to keep his apartment secure while we’re gone. Bigby is
annoyingly prepared.
I pass him a black coffee, no milk or sugar, as he turns back toward
me. He accepts it readily and takes a long drink, clearly not minding the
temperature.
“Not if he can help it,” I say, taking a thick glug of my protein
shake.
