CHAPTER 143

  Simone's feet tapped the floor eagerly as she waited patiently for the messenger to sort out the letter he had for her. She hoped the letter would be from Elaina or Goomer. Ever since she arrived at the dream pack, she and Goomer have exchanged several letters.

  Goomer is a cousin to Simone and the only actual family she has. Her father had a sister who had married a member of the dark moon pack. Due to Simone's father's dissatisfaction with her choice of spouse, they could not get along quite much, which put a strain on their relationship.

  When Simone's parents died, and she was left alone, her mind didn't sort to find her only family remaining; her father hardly let them talk to her. About two years back, a letter had arrived for Simone, which had come from the dark moon pack. Goomer introduced himself as her cousin in the letter and explained that his mother, Simone's aunt, had instructed him to write to Simone on her deathbed.
