Zoe, after jumping out of the window of Ruth's home, went straight towards the woods. The three men waited for her as per her expectation. The early hours of the down were peaceful.
She shifted into her human form to stand in front of them.
"Have anyone seen you?" Lester asked the first question.
"No. They did not. They were asleep when I left."
"Thea told me that she would again try to convince Ruth to shift in the servant quarters. Did they discussed about that?" Rees asked.
"Yes. They did. But Ruth is reluctant because of Mrs payne. If you want her in 'the great manor' then you first need to convince Mrs Payne. Ruth will never leave her alone." Zoe shrugged.
A moment passed, and Edwin finally asked. "Did you get any news from your family?"
Zoe became serious. "No. But I am sure my father must be on his way to find me. I should have told him about a friend who lived in the other continent." She groaned.
