A chat in a steamy bath

Author's note: This is from Serina's point of view

Pio and his men retreated into the forest after confirming that they will join us tomorrow afternoon. They were excited about dinner and the ceremony that Shaman Sergio will conduct, but I think that they were the most excited about spending time with Fynn.

Part of me felt sorry for them. After a decade of waiting, they got their hopes up because of a lie, but I reminded myself that they are grown werewolves.

I regretted that Zeiroi was not around. Considering that he was not in the garden, he was probably in his room, or in the kitchen since I told him not to wander into the forest until we make sure it's safe. If Zeiroi was here, I would introduce him to Pio, so that they don't treat Zeiroi as an intruder when they bump into each other. Well, the introduction will wait until tomorrow.
