Chapter 18

Did she mean for three days to slip by before attempting to return to her mother’s house? No, of course not. She had meant to head right over, to go and slip in and see the old place and to make a few phone calls, but instead...

She had done the very thing she promised Henrik she would not... which was lay in bed all day.

Okay, no. She had done other things as well, like, going for walks. In fact, that had been one of the things that most filled her day. She walked the entirety of the forest, following along old worn paths, listening to the magic that permeated throughout Garoureve. It was weak, clinging onto the boundary, clinging to protect the town and the pack. It was understandable, of course, given the trauma the town had endured, but for it to still be so weak...

Questions, questions, she was sick of fucking questions. She was sick of asking herself over and over again what had happened, what her mother had done, what had occurred, but the longer she thought about it and the more she considered it all...

At first, she was angry. She was so angry, she had burned the dinner Ansa was making. Her anger had flared with her magic, creating bursts of heat and warmth, until she had forced herself into an ice cold shower that kept fluctuating in temperature. How could her mother allow this? How could she have... done, whatever she did. It was against everything a witch was supposed to do.

Witches brought... balance. They were a representative. They brought healing and serenity. They helped the wolf pack, so often lost in the ways of nature, connect with the outside world. It was the duty of a witch to keep the peace between packs and between nature and...

Nothing made sense! A boundary line should be there to protect nature and magic, to keep those who would harm out, and to keep the goodness within safe, lest anything go wandering...

It didn’t make sense for her mother to harm the town, to keep the town and the pack trapped within. It didn’t make sense for witches to abandon the town altogether. Why had no one returned to take her mother’s place? Why had they simply abandoned the pack to nothingness? Why had her mother run?

Questions, more questions, only, there was no logical reason for what her mother had done unless her mother was a lying terrible human being that had completely betrayed her entire beliefs. What was done here...

The only answers she would get would have to come through her mother, who was either completely clueless, or a deceitful liar. The only other person that would know anything would be Colburn’s dad, who was dead by some... unknown... thing.

He had passed after the fire, after they had their vengeance on the hunters, but Colburn had offered nothing else, Ariana didn’t know. No one seemed to know.

She didn’t want to pry, but something had happened to Colburn’s father...
