Days went by and the ambiance in the castle returned to normal. Everyone was still very kind and considerate. Hugo was also busy during the day. After they were ambushed days ago, Hugo made sure all the blood on him wasn't his. Although he would still clean up before meeting me for dinner.
From what I heard, Balthazar was still doing alright, redeeming his family's name that Adelia sullied. Emily would constantly visit me, teaching me etiquette. Sometimes, I would reassure her since she always acted as if she was the one who tried to harm me.
Balthazar and Emily's son were also doing fine beyond the wall on the northern border. I asked Emily and Ivo about it, and they both said they were alright. Werewolves were proud creatures and becoming a warrior was what most werewolves do. Being able to defend the border and continue the peace in Belcoot was a great honor for a warrior. The danger twinned with it was nothing compared to that.
