They appeared troubled, their attention shifting to the car as they lined up to greet their leader, Samuel, until their gares landed on me. their expressions turning sour

They didn't seem too thrilled to see me.

"Come," Samuel said, stepping out of the car to face his follower They bowed to him, but their faces remained clouded by my presence.

1 followed suit, stepping out of the car and standing behind him. His people stared at me with blank expressions

"Show us where they are, Sam whispered softly, and one of his followers stepped forward, nodding before leading us away

One of the she-wolves, cradling her young son who appeared to be around eight, lifted her head and her expression shitted upon seeing me.

The drive home was filled with my tears, my gaze fixed on the passing scenery. I couldn't fathom the idea that Hunter could be responsible for such cruelty.

"He has a son himself, why would he harm someone else's child? I cried out, expressing my disbelief to my inner wolf. Nera.

"So what do you think happened then? Sam interjectes, his hands on his hips as he voiced his frustration.

"Go on, ask him," he insisted, running a hand through his hair infconcern.

"It's alright, she needs time to calm down," Polline likely signaled him to drop the subject for now.
