章節 98: Going Home

They set up a small campsite deep in the forest. Laina and Kol made sure they covered all of their tracks and scent to prevent them from being found. Kol set up a small campfire while Laina sat with Victoria. 

Laina handed her a mug of hot cocoa to help warm her body up. The night was chilly and the wind blew softly in the background. 

"I won't force you to come with us. But if you do, rest assured you will be safe. I won't let him anywhere near you," Laina promised. 

Victoria gripped the mug tightly as she took a sip. As she glanced at the surroundings around her, she grew a little worried. She remembered a distant past. She was a human growing up in Wolfenheim. Things had never been easy for her. 

Her pack family found her as a baby, left in a basket near the entrance of the town. The family who owned the bakery took her in and cared for her as if she was their own.
