Chapter 18 Welcome Back Priestess

• I dipped a toe into the cold lake, wondering if what I was about to do wasn't equal to wasting time—my time and the Doctor's. I turned to find him resting against the side of the black car, staring at me from the bank of the sacred lake. I wondered if he was frustrated by my request.
• It wasn't enough that he let me occupy his room just to hide from his cousin; now here I was, like an ingrate, dragging him around the Pack to the sacred lake. But I needed to know. If I really wasn't a priestess anymore, I needed to know if Knight had succeeded in his most important quest.
