Even the students in my class whose home pack isn't the Valley seem to know this story. They all look really nervous to tell it.
Cassidy chimes in quietly, "The pack calls it the Dark Ages because of how gloomy and terrible it was for everyone. Alpha has been great though over the last few years. More caring and thoughtful than ever before. Honestly... probably one of the best Alphas in our history. Really."
"That's true," Evan adds. "If it weren't for him, I would have failed accounting."
I try not to let this information get to me too much. If anything, it just makes me feel an immense pressure suddenly fall onto my shoulders. It even scares me more than I was before.
If Matthew was in such a dark place after his mate left him, I can only imagine that he never wants to go back there
