CHAPTER 55

~Zara's POV~

As soon as we entered the pack house, my breath caught in my throat. It was even more extravagant on the inside—vaulted ceilings, grand chandeliers, and walls adorned with rich tapestries. 

The house felt like a blend of tradition and modernity, where history seemed to hum in every corner, yet it held a warm, lived-in air.

Storm bounced around, already eager to show me something. "Zara, come! I want to show you my room!" he chirped, pulling at my hand with excitement. 

Snow gave me a soft smile, watching us both. His mood seemed lighter since we arrived, the tension of our journey fading into the background.

"Not now, Storm. Let Zara go to her room first while we go to ours. She's tired. Later you can give her a tour." 

Storm hesitated briefly as though contemplating something before nodding. "Alright, Zara. But I'll show you later."
