Chapter 42
Ella's POV
My father and I lock eyes and I could tell the expression on my face reflected his. Simultaneously, we both scream at each other, "you know her name?!"
The beautiful snow owl hoots before taking flight into the woods, almost as if she knew the reckoning had just come. we stand there frozen looking at each other thinking of the words that we're going to say next before we're quickly pulled into the house. I finally look away to see marine on the couch covered in blankets and shivering.
"Why did you leave the door open so long? You let out all the warm air it's freezing in here! I'm not a wolf like you I can't just warm myself back up, these old bones are cold. What..." she stops clearly looking at the expression on me and my father's faces.
"What happened?" She asks, looking at my father.
