I was a little surprised when my grandfather took both my hands in his. He peered deeply into my eyes.

wondered if he was going to try to compel me. It didn’t feel like that was his plan, but I prepared for it

anyway.

Instead, his expression softened, and he touched my cheek before letting me go and taking a couple of

steps back.

“I am so happy you’re here, granddaughter. There have been times when I was certain you and I would

“You don’t have to, at least not right now. And, perhaps you will get lucky and die at the end of what

would be considered a normal lifespan for wolf-kind.” He quirked an eyebrow at me.

“Is that supposed to make me feel better?” I laughed, relaxing into the couch c ushions. “I guess that’s

better than dying in a war or something else as bad.”

His expression sobered “I didn’t mean to make light.

“Mama?”

We both turned to see Stella in the doorway to the children’s room. Gabriela was behind her, tugging at

the sleeve of her dress, but Stella was pulling away with uncharacteristic stubbornness.

“Need to talk to Marnal”
