Chapter 112

A lot of things happened differently at the citadel without Marion’s supervision. Fiona had to take on full responsibility for both his role and hers. There was no one better than him at the job, though, and so she didn’t seek to replace him in his absence.

It wasn’t even an option.

She did what she could, following Julian’s advice, and left the rest for the next day. She also worked closely with Hanna, and the beta proved to be much more helpful than she expected at the beginning. It was the right call to bring her onto the team.

Today, like a few other days in the past, she found herself thinking about the human world.

Camila and Peter were back from their honeymoon, according to her calculations. They were now back to their jobs and daily lives. Before leaving, she left Camila a message, telling her friend why she had to leave. Camila didn’t know about Julian’s return, so she had to explain why she needed to leave the best way she could.

She promised to keep in touch, but she had not kept true to those words. She couldn’t. The werewolf world suffered a massive loss on her return, and it has not gotten any better since then. It might never get better, and she had to accept that fate while hoping for the best.

She picked up her phone, dialled Camila’s number, and waited for a few seconds to hear it ring. She had hope that it would ring into voicemail and she would have reasons to end the call, but her friend picked.

“Fiona.” She called.

“Camila.” She answered.

“How are you?”

She didn’t know how she was doing, but Camila couldn’t know that. She would never stop worrying if she found out.

“I’m fine. Thank you.”

“And June and Jashin, how are they?”

“They are alright; they asked about you too. I told them you got married. How is Peter?”

“He is fine. Back to work, saving lives.”

Fiona’s eyes fluttered. “I miss you.”
