Serena’s POV
Five minutes later, I found myself sitting in the living room, surrounded by a mix of warriors and villagers. The atmosphere was tense, but not hostile. It was more like the awkward tension at a family reunion. Apparently, what had just happened was a big misunderstanding.
The warriors, who had burst in so suddenly, were actually Baird’s men. They had come to check on me, worried that I might not be able to adjust to life in the Storm Pack or that I might not know how to cook lunch for myself. It was all Baird’s arrangement, but he had forgotten to mention it to me. The resulting chaos had been an unfortunate consequence of this oversight.
