Chapter 268:
It confused me how my mind was ready to leave the castle, but my body was reluctant.
I walked to the window, resting my head against it before grabbing a fistful of my hair in frustration.
Maybe I should wait until Devin and Dax recovered before making any decisions.
Speaking of Devin and Dax,
A fleeting excitement shot through me, making me lift my head as ideas ran through my mind.
Since they wanted to return the favor so badly, what if they could help me find the person who framed me?
I reluctantly discarded the idea, cursing under my breath.
No option seemed to work.
It was best I leave and never return.
Though the triplets’ absence would create a void in my heart, I would live with that for the rest of my miserable life. My jaw clenched in anger as my eyes swept through the garden in a single glance.
Molten anger filled my veins as my eyes rested on the spot where Damon and I had shared a passionate moment.
“Fuck!”
I felt my heart squeeze with a sharp pain.
I hated that the last time it happened was the end. I wanted more from the triplets, but it was never going to happen again. My memory didn’t help, as the heated moment kept replaying in my head, making me feel flushed.

At least I had enjoyed it while it lasted.
It was high time I left for home.
“Your home is here, Aurora.”
A calm voice echoed in my head. I quickly spun around to see if someone was beside me, but there was no one.
The voice sounded familiar, but it had been a long time since I had heard it.
I was certain it didn’t come from my surroundings, but from… my head. Wait a minute… my head!
My eyes sparkled with excitement, and a smile formed on my lips.
I wasn’t alone!
“Rue? Is that you, Rue?” I asked tenderly.
“I’m here,” she replied, but her voice sounded distant. I could feel her presence deep within my mind.
“Why have you been silent?” I asked, my tone laced with accusation.
I groaned in dissatisfaction at my wolf.
The last time she had spoken to me was when I shifted before Nathalia. She hadn’t been there when I needed her.
I missed her shiny fur. I couldn’t wait to run my paws over it. I missed her company and her reassuring words.
