Chapter 241: Ava: Sister Miriam's Words

"What does that—"

"Never you mind, child." Sister Miriam glances toward Selene again, giving a faint shake of her head. "I will return with your wolf, and set some inquisitive minds in motion here in the city." Her words are slow as she gains control of her emotions once again. "This is a matter that affects me, after all."

"Thank you." I do my best to infuse my words with as much gratitude as I can.

Sister Miriam flaps her hand in my direction, an elegant wave of dismissal toward my appreciation. "Like I said, child, this matter affects more than just you. Layla and her lot will find out what information they can from the city council. While I can assure you Dakota Sanctuary is not at war with your lot, that doesn't mean certain factions within are not meddling in the affairs of your packs." Her smile is tight. "As you've already experienced."

Answering is moot; she already knows what we've been through at the hands of vampires.
