"So your Beta is a traitor," Janelle remarked once Kaelos and I got to Kaelos' office to regroup.
She and her husband were the only ones among the Alpha Kings and Luna Queens who hadn't returned to their territories, wishing to see how things were sorted after the chaos at the festival.
Her husband, Alpha King Thorian, stood resting on the wall at a corner, his arms folded in front of his chest while Kaelos and I stood in front of his desk.
I stared at the white marble floor, my eyes distant as I tried to compose myself.
My mind kept replaying all the memories I've had with her these past few months.
How she'd help me make potions. Gossip about Kaelos with me back when I felt like running for my life. She's been more than a friend… she was a rock.
And now she's gone.
Death was a scary thing.
Caroline was dead, but we had to keep our heads in the game if we wanted any chance of avenging her.
