Lilith was sitting in her favorite spot at the window when her phone rang.
She'd been sitting there for an hour doing nothing. Just watching the grounds below. The pack members moving around like everything was normal. Like the estate hadn't shaken three days ago. Like the windows on the upper floor hadn't needed replacing.
Like everything wasn't completely different now.
She almost didn't answer.
Then she saw the name on the screen.
Wren.
She picked up.
"Finally," Wren said. "I've been calling for two days."
"I know." Lilith pulled her knees to her chest. "I saw it."
A pause.
"Are you okay."
It wasn't really a question. Wren had known her since they were seven years old. She knew the difference between Lilith being okay and Lilith saying she was okay.
"I'm fine," Lilith said.
"Lilith."
"I'm fine Wren."
Another pause. Longer this time.
"Something happened," Wren said. Not a question either.
