Chapter 136: A Favor Given

Eleonore’s POV

I had fallen asleep in the car on the way back. I wasn’t sure who had brought the car, or how much else had gone on after we had all left the cavern through the tunnel the wolves had found, and then into the basement of an abandoned cabin and into the front of the house where some cars were parked.

But once I had gotten into the soft interior of the air-conditioned car and my head hit the back of the seat I was out for the count. I had only been awoken sometime later when we reached the mage’s compound by Rhett, who had told me to wake up and that we had arrived.

“Do you want to stay in the car?” he asked me gently, his hand on my thigh as he rubbed his thumb there for comfort. I shook my head as I rubbed at my eyes, wanting to be there when Ronan was told that he had his son back. I felt a sense of something heavy wash over me for a moment, and I took a second to compose myself, before I smiled at Rhett and got out of the car.
