As soon as she left, Nathan came downstairs, draping a comforting hand over my shoulders.

“Are you alright?” he asked.

“Yeah!” I nodded turning to him. “I’m sorry, I didn’t want to get angry but it’s difficult not to. She came to accuse me of crimes I didn’t commit.”

quietly. “We’ll make an official announcement starting today. Until we’re sure that the Feral Wolf threat is passed, we cannot risk anyone’s life. If you feel bored, call me… I’ll come keep you company”

chuckled. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” “I’ll make time for you, no matter what, Lyla,” he said gently, running his thumb on my lips. “I’m ready to walk out of a meeting just to…“)
