Jasmin's POV
We arrived back at the Academy the following morning, and the instant my body hit the mattress, consciousness abandoned me. I missed lunch entirely, my limbs heavy with exhaustion from the hunt. Yet finding any semblance of rest in that chaotic dorm room proved nearly impossible.
Hardy and Matthew never stopped their incessant noise. Their booming voices, aggressive growls, and crude laughter hammered against my skull like a relentless assault. Today was particularly unbearable since they had invited their equally repulsive friends to join the mayhem. This wasn't unusual behavior for them, but recently their conduct had devolved into something truly savage and uncontrolled.
