Chapter 35: Secret Betrayal

Later that afternoon, after having an unexpected lunch with Sawyer, Waverly tossed on her sneakers and made her way into town to complete her daily run.

Up until now, Katia had had them searching for possible clues and role-playing in order to see if they could conjure something together; however, while Waverly headed into town that day, she had a different approach. From watching her father conduct business throughout the years, Waverly knew that an important part of finding answers was communication. As a wolf, your pack was the best source for any advice or information, so that's where she would start.

As Waverly entered town, she continued down main street, walking past countless shops and people, who over time, she had come to know. Most waved to her and uttered a casual 'good morning' as she passed by, greeting her with smiles or a small conversation. She headed further into town then she had really ever gone before, stopping occasionally to talk to those who approached her.
