Seraphina left immediately after her little threat. But I lost my appetite for my food. There was a reason I kept her far. She was always associated with one drama or the other, and I wasn't really a patient man to deal with that. But I needed a healer, a rogue wolf beside me. Because the fight was not over. I was sure there was more to come, and I needed to somehow keep my men safe. She came at exactly the right time, but at what price? And why? It definitely wasn't from a place of duty. She was not that kind of a person.
I pushed my meal aside and resisted the nagging urge that made me want to look upstairs. I didn't want to see her. I didn't want to face her, but a nagging urge was pushing me to look that way. Even if it was a mere glimpse.
I lost against myself and found my legs movi
