Chapter 149

• [Araminta]
• As witches, we are taught that all children are a blessing from the Moon Goddess, mother of witches and wolves. "Babies represent a new beginning, a chance at a new start."
• And I can see the wisdom in this truth as I hold my great-great-grand daughter and place her in her mother's waiting arms. "She's perfect," I kiss her little brow, letting her mother see and smell and give her a name before handing little Arden to her auntie Hazel.
