I heard my wolf whimper. I frowned into Elijah's chest and started to wonder what happened after I left the first time. Was it nothing to them but just another day?
They must have felt something when I left.
I never understood how that part of the pack's connection worked.
Perhaps they won't recognize me at all. The shock in their faces would be a mood lifter for sure. I find myself smiling slightly. All I had to do was to pretend as if I never existed in the pack.
Elijah had said that my pack here, my family would all protect me. It's a comforting thought but there was something they couldn't protect me from.
The faint feelings I have towards Kol will rise again, bringing me unavoidable pain that can't be taken away. I can't be protected from what's inside me.
My wolf whimpered again. I need to remember what I have and will not be losing.
