Nervously I watched, as the Lycan King climbed the podium and commanded the attention of everyone in the hall.
Naomi’s left hand grasped mine and held, offering a much needed comfort. Appreciation rang true in my eyes as I turned and looked at her.
“Good evening everyone. I am glad that y'all honored the invitation to be here tonight...as you all know, we have gathered here for the sake of one of ours…”
The king continued with the speech; apologizing for the misconduct of his sons; and promising a better life for me outside the pack, in the city of humans.
I turned to Adam, to see his reaction, when his father mentioned that a car would be coming next tomorrow to take me to the city of humans.
His face was contorted in sadness, even as he redirected his gaze to stare at me as well
