And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

She quickly ruffled through the documents on her desk, leaving me speechless and in shock at what she was saying. This woman obviously had no clue who I was, and if she didn't, someone desperately needed to tell her. Finding whatever she had been looking for, she scanned over the paperwork with a smile.

sighed. "Yes, as did the rest of our pack." The vague memory of their horrified expressions was something that
