"What?" Jessica's head whipped around so fast her hair flew. "Right now? How?"
"I don't know," Tasha said, her voice filled with confusion and wonder. "I didn't even train today. I haven't fought anything, haven't meditated. But I can feel it. I'm stronger."
Jayden's enhanced senses picked up the subtle changes in her... the slight increase in her energy signature, the way her movements became just a fraction more fluid. He immediately glanced at the system display again:
- Level: 24 ↑
- HP: 680/680
Jayden exhaled. She had indeed leveled up. His addition to the pack must have pushed her over the threshold. The bond had granted her enough of a boost to trigger a level increase.
All of a sudden, Jessica let out a gasp. "No way..." she breathed, pressing a hand to her chest. "No way. No freaking way!"
"What?" Tasha spun to face her sister.
