Julianne POV
The moment I stepped into the large room, I felt the weight of it—the air thick with ancient power, the kind I couldn’t fully understand.
"Welcome, Julianne," she said with a slight smile. "I am Rita by name. I’ve been expecting you."
I stopped in my tracks. "You’ve been expecting me?" I asked, again trying to hide the suspicion in my voice even though she had repeated the same words twice with the same glint in her eyes. "How did you know I was coming? And why are you so willing to help me? I am a wolf, and I know that both classes don't blend well with each other except there is a mutual understanding and, of course, a benefit to each other." I could not help but question her, seeing her calm demeanor could be deceiving.
Yes! She is a witch today with a friendly smile,
