“Val!!“I said eagerly to my wolf.“When did you wake up?”

“I woke up nicely while we were….” She stopped talking for a moment and I heard her chuckling, making me smile. “Well, I don’t have to tell you what we were doing. I see things have been going nicely while I was sleeping.”

“You have no idea how much I missed you,“I said through my tears.“I was beginning to think you were never coming back.”

“I’ll always return to you, Ella,“she breathed. “I’m still feeling a little weak, but I’m glad to be back as well.”

It didn’t take long for me to fall asleep and once I did, I was pleased to find it dreamless and peaceful.
