-Valerio- I had been informed by one of my pack members that Selene had just arrived. I had instructed them to ask her to come to my office as I had something important to discuss with her. I was standing in front of the window behind my desk, watching the sun slowly set when I heard a soft knock on the door. It could only be Selene, though I felt compelled to ask since our connection had weakened significantly with her absence, even if it had only been a day. “Come in,” I said, taking my seat at the desk. As Selene entered, her strong scent filled the room. She wore a long pink dress today, and her loose hair partially obscured her face. Her eyes were slightly red, as if she had been crying, but she held her head high. “You asked for me?” she inquired in her calm, melodious voice.
