Even with their fast horses and carriages, it had taken the wolves four days to get to their pack. They camped at night and journeyed during the day. And the whole time, Czar avoided Masha like a plaque. Although, Masha did same.
Finally getting to the supreme pack was the biggest relieve for the wolves, but the biggest terror for Masha. Everything smelt like the wolves and she wondered how she'd co-exist with them, being the only vampire.
It was already evening and dusk was near. As soon as they alighted their carriages, Czar walked away before anyone else. The king and queen were also alighting theirs while being welcomed by the servants. Masha was befuddled and just stood by her empty carriage, not knowing what to do or where to go. She felt like a slave who had just been bought.
