I started to deny it quickly.
"I don't know what you're talking about." I said.
I had never lied in my entire life.
But I had to this time.
"You can't lie to me girl." She said. "I can see through you. He wanted someone else, not you."
How had she known? How? No one knew at least.
Or did someone already know and then tell her?
My head was racing.
"No one told me." She said as if reading my mind. "I'm a seer."
I looked at her point blank.
I had heard of wolves who could see into the future but I had just assumed that it was a myth. Or could see someone and instantly know anything about them.
I dropped down to my knees despite the burn in my thighs.
"Please don't tell him who I am?" I begged at her feet. "He would kill them. Please. I will do anything you want."
The tears were flowing.
She drew me up to sit down back on the bed and lay my head gently against one of the standing pillows.
