Chapter 44

• Romeo made a call to the royal guards to come and pick his father up. After filing our report, Romeo and I made it back to the Lia Eclipse Pack house.
• As soon as we entered the room, Leo's arms enveloped me in a tight embrace, his concern palpable in the way he held me close. His words tumbled out in a rush, a mixture of relief and anxiety, as he expressed his fears about what might have happened to me. I returned his hug, reassured by his presence and grateful for his concern.
• Lucas was next, his expression a mix of relief and concern as he took my hand in his, his grip firm and reassuring. His eyes searched mine, as if trying to gauge the extent of any harm that may have befallen me. I offered him a small smile, silently conveying that I was alright, that I had made it back safely.
