Chapter 47 Savannah opened the door into the dark room, noticing at once that the curtains werestill closed despite it being well past noon.

Nothing changed in the last few weeks.

"Hey," she checked if the owner of the chambers was there, but no response followed.

However, she distinctly heard some movement inside.

“Elene,” Savvy decided to enter without invitation.

Kai told her to leave his sister alone, to give her the space she needed.

And as a result, Elene spent day after day alone in the darkness.

The news of Penelope’s death was devastating for her.

She found the northern Princess in the corner behind her bed.

Elene was sitting on the floor, hugging her knees, her golden hair undone and reaching theground.

The air in the room seemed stuffy.

"Did you eat anything today?" Savvy asked, and silence was her answer once again.

This was no way to go on.

She walked deeper into the room and slid down to the floor next to Elene.

One could hear a pin drop there.

The Northern Princess did not react, and they sat like this in complete silence for a while.

"Your brother is worried about you, you know." Savannah sighed and leaned her head against the cold wall.

“And he needs you.

Probably more than ever before.

Your country is falling apart, the war is on its doorstep, and enemies are all around us.” For a few moments, Elene said nothing, but then she asked, “Did shesuffer?" Her voice was trembling, and so was her small frame.

Savannah knew that she meant Penelope, and some part of her wanted to tell her the dead lycaness was never her friend in the first place.

Her speech right before her demise was horrible and cruel.

However, Savvy feared this would probably only break her almost sister-in-law irreparably.

“No,” she said honestly.

“Not really.

He snapped her neck; everything happened very fast.

I don't think she even had the time to process what was happening.” And now Savannah was the one being blamed for this.

After Bjorn mentioned that she had "slayed her competition", at least half of the Northern Lycan Kingdom started hating her instantlysince Penelope was the only one dead.

They got Bjorn’s little hint.

Everyone used to see Penelope as the North's sweetheart and the best candidate for the role of the Luna.

Her father was an Alpha of a prominent lycan pack, and he was fuming.

Things were bad.

"That's probably the best way, right?" Elene looked at her questioningly, and Savvy forced a little smile on her face, nodding.

“Her funeral was beautiful,” she added.

“Everyone was missing you.” “And I will miss her…

Pen was the only one who always was on my side.” This time, Savannah chose not to comment because tellingthe truth wasn't an option right now, considering how fragile the lycaness next to her was and lying to her face wasn't a good idea either.

“I saw her,” Elene said suddenly, wrinkling her nose.

“Who?” Savvy’s stomach churned.

"Gideon's wife." The northerner looked away, fidgeting with the edge of her long nightgown.

"I saw both of them through the window." She bit her lip almost to the point of bleeding and then exhaled heavily.

“She is so …

perfect." Savannah wondered if this was part of why the woman stayed in her room the whole time.

Not only had her so-called best friend just died, but the love of her life was also here with his beautiful, flawless mate.

The two always radiated happiness.

Savannah loved them both, but she knew how a person with a broken heart could feel nextto them.

It was a lot to take in for anyone.

“Yeah.

Riannon is amazing.

It's not always easy to be in the same room with her,” she admitted.

So many times after Zack's betrayal, she questioned herself, thinking that maybe it was her fault he couldn’t choose her over everything.

Perhaps, if she could be more like Ria, everything would have played out differently.

Only now, with Kai by her side, she knew her imperfections weren’t the problem.

He loved her the way she was.

He loved her for the way she was.

ELI "And it looked like he loves her a lot." Elene threw her head back and closed her eyes, swallowing a sob thatthreatened to escape her.

“He does.” Once again, Savvy chose not to lie.

"They are perfect for each other." For about a minute, none of them said a word.
