Chapter 92 - Be Elsewhere

• Marelva repeatedly shot me stinky looks through the rearview mirror. I sat silently in the backseat, my heart frozen.
• It was difficult to say goodbye to my friends a few minutes ago. Marc struggled to comprehend until the very last moment why I would return, despite me having previously told him about my unhappiness with my husband. However, I didn't want to surprise them with a werewolf story, and Johnston wouldn't allow it either. Since I'll probably never see them again in my life, explaining didn't make much sense.
• However, it was Jerney's reaction that surprised me the most. He observed quietly while Andrea and Marc attempted to convince me not to leave with Johnston. Just before I departed, he embraced me tightly and advised me to stay strong, ensuring that nobody took advantage of me. He appeared to grasp the complexity of my situation.
