Moana

Once I saw Olivia leave through the coffee shop window, I waited five minutes before leaving myself and walking in the opposite direction. We had planned to leave separately like this just in case anyone was waiting for me outside; at the very least, I could make up a convincing story that Olivia and I didn’t recognize each other at all, and it was likely that no one would ask too many questions.

As I walked, I couldn’t stop thinking about everything she had just told me. It felt as though the entire world that I had come to know over the past few months had been completely turned upside down, and I didn’t know what to do. If it was true that I was the Golden Wolf, then that meant that I was already in enough danger of being hunted as it was. Not only that, but if Edrick already knew that I was the Golden Wolf, then he was deliberately keeping it from me. And, judging from everything that I had learned recently, I knew why he was keeping it from me.

However, I still had no way of knowing for sure. I hardly knew Olivia, and although she seemed genuine, I still didn’t know for sure if I could completely trust her. I decided that before I would jump to any rash conclusions, I would have to do some digging of my own. Until I did that, though, at least my wolf had regained some of her energy and I could talk to her now.

was a good possibility that we didn’t even have time. However, if Edrick really was planning on producing a child of the Golden Wolf, then at least there was a good chance that I would be somewhat safe until the baby was born. But then again, I still had no way of knowing. I couldn’t read Edrick’s mind, or anyone else’s, for that matter. And although part of me felt silly for thinking that Edrick would ever want to hurt me, I couldn’t help but wonder if the kind, sweet part of Edrick was just an act. Maybe he really was just like his
