That evening , I strolled through the village the sun setting over the houses and fields .

Wolves ran around , preparing dinner or doing errands ; the air was filled with their laughter and conversations .

I had only briefly closed my eyes , and allowed the sense of community wed built up together to wash over me until the words of that note began sounding loud and clear , reminding me silently about something that was never meant to appear in the first instance .

I ran past the training grounds where Dane was working with a group of young wolves , his voice firm and steady as he walked them through their drills .

He is a well I drew strength from , and for a moment , a surge of gratefulness ran through my veins .

Dane , I said as I came up to him .

He finally looked up , and from the soft lines of his face , I knew all was well .

Hey , you .

Everything okay ? I hesitated and then nodded .

Just needed to see you .

Youve got that look , he said softly .

What look ? The one which says youre carrying too much on your shoulders .

I let out a sigh , leaning into him .

Its nothing I cant handle .

You dont have to do it alone , he reminded me .

I sat down in the chair in front of the desk and fixed .

my gaze on the folded paper , almost as if all the answers would emanate from its folds .

The only sound was the soft rustling outside my window .

I whipped around , my heart suddenly racing , but shadows of course showed me nothing .

Get a hold of yourself , Aurora , I growled , shaking my head into the dark .
