#Chapter 420 – Thanks, but No Thanks
Ella
I’m quite tired when evening approaches in the refugee camp and Cora comes to my side, placing a hand on my back and telling me that we should probably head home. I sigh, looking around, knowing that I can do more but…
“I get it, Ells,” she says, looking around with me. “But there’s only so much we can do. And you’re a queen and a mom as much as a healer now. You’ve got to find a balance.”
“Is it normal to feel guilty?” I ask my sister, who has been working to heal people for much longer than I have. ” When you prioritize yourself, and other things, even though you know you can help people who are suffering?”
“It is,” Cora says with a little sigh. ”
But you, my big-hearted sister, probably feel it more keenly than most.
“Yeah,” I say, glancing over at Hank. ” He, for instance, compartmentalizes well.”
“Don’t count Hank out,” she says softly, shaking her head. “He’s got a big heart too. Maybe just…hides it better.”
I turn my head a little, considering him, considering her point. And then my heart aches for him again as I think of how disappointed he was when Cora left him for her mate – because as much as he loved her, we know now that he never stood a chance. Cora and Roger were written in the stars.
But is there someone out there for Hank too?
I hope, quite desperately, that there is. He’s so good, and he deserves that, like the rest of us.
“Ready, Luna?” Conner asks, coming over and bringing my baby with him, who reaches for me with his little grasping hands.
“Sure am!” I say, taking my baby and cuddling him close. Cora laughs and leans in as well, fussing over Rafe and I can see thinking about her own little baby, who will be here so much sooner than she realizes. Together, we start to walk out of the tent, but as I turn I hear a little voice calling me back.
“Hey, wolf lady!” a little boy calls, and I turn and laugh to see little Benny running for me.
