Chapter 288

AARON

I step into the sitting room, I’m eager to see my sister for the first time in ten years.

Emily has her back to me, staring out the window.

Axel stands by, looking both annoyed and bored, and I briefly wonder if Emily has been difficult to put him in such a mood since the last time I saw him.

Emily is going to be difficult; I know that much.

My sister is no doubt broken in many different ways and needs the support of myself and the pack so she can slowly put her life back together.

“It’s okay,” I tell her calmly. “You’re home now. You’re safe.”

Emily’s eyes fill with tears as she steps forward.
