Chapter 87 Distraction
- Rachel was lost in thought as she walked home, replaying her conversation with the elder. She was determined to protect her unborn child and deal with Sara’s disappearance. But she didn’t want Philip to know about her pregnancy just yet, and had asked if there was a way to keep it hidden.
- The elder explained that the pregnancy was still in its early stages, and she could provide herbs to ease the symptoms for now. However, she warned that as the pregnancy progressed, Philip’s wolf would sense the bond with their pup, making it impossible to conceal.
- Rachel had shared her need for time to confirm whether the witch had truly returned and to address that threat. She acknowledged that the elder knew Philip better than she did and understood when the old woman said he might become overprotective and prevent her from helping. Rachel also recognized Misty’s strength, believing her wolf would be a vital asset in confronting the rebels.
