Phoebe's POV
I had no clue how to find the pack house, but fortunately, my tiny furry companion knew the way. The small pup guided me forward.
It struck me as incredible that this little creature understood how to lead me to safety. I followed my gut feeling that the pup would bring me back to its family.
But what I discovered was the pack house.
"You're incredible!" I exclaimed with joy, scooping up the pup and pressing kisses to its face. I held it close against my chest and hurried toward the pack house.
Luckily, I avoided any encounters with Valerium warriors, though I did run into some of Wallace's men.
"My queen!?" Three of them rushed toward me immediately, but I stayed on high alert. Knowing there was a betrayer among Wallace's warriors, I couldn't afford to trust them blindly.
"My queen, there's no need for fear. We're loyal to you."
One warrior attempted to get closer, but I refused to let my guard down.
