Kapitel 191: Chapter 191: Sanctuary

The stone corridor on the other side of Piers's tunnel felt mundane and comfortable, almost like the Stronghold, except this place was darker, without windows and I could tell without scanning we were deep underground.

My heart lightened just a bit at the memory of the pair of us storming the werewolf palace in Ukraine so long ago. How young I'd been, how full of myself. I was able to see that now, to understand just how much of a mess I'd managed to make barreling my way through the world in search of my werefriend. Charlotte's rescue came at the destruction of the Black Souls-and nearly the werepalace-and was my first encounter with Eva Southway and the rest of the Steam Union.
