Next Victim

"Grandma?" Arya asked perplexed. Her Nana had been away for over three days now and she was worried. 

Although she had regained her memories as a goddess that didn't change the fact that she had a family now. 

Zaine nodded and Arya threw a questioning glance at Amaris, who simply offered a reassuring smile. 

"I'll be right there," she replied to Zaine who nodded and stepped out immediately as if she was going to be scalded if she left a second later.

Arya quickly tidied herself up, straightening her clothes and running her fingers through her hair. 

She was just about to leave when she heard the wolf that had been strangely silent since Zaine walked in say, "I'll wait for you."

Confused and taken aback, Arya halted at the door, her hand on the doorknob. She turned to face Amaris, her hair following her graceful movement like a cascade of silken threads.

"What?" she asked, her voice a mixture of surprise and curiosity.
