Phoebe's POV
I wandered around the house with Justin trailing behind me, though he kept his distance since I wanted some space to think.
We'd just finished dinner together, and like always, Wade had made everything more lively with his endless chatter. Now I needed a walk before bed - my stomach was way too full.
"My queen, don't go toward the forest. It's dangerous."
Justin's warning stopped me just as I was about to head in that direction.
"Why?"
"It's..." Justin seemed nervous to tell me. "The wild wolves live there."
My eyebrows shot up with interest. It had been forever since I'd last seen the wild wolves, and Justin must have caught the excitement in my eyes.
"I know you used to feed the wild wolves, but I can't risk your safety. Please understand - this is for your protection."
