Lily and James (werewolf novel) novel Chapter 172

Chapter 0172

(Nick POV)

After the disastrous wed

memorial event, I somehow made it back to the packhouse. I really do not know how I got here. I am sure that I was ushered back by one of the security guards, but I honestly.

cannot remember.

I do know that, ever since I got back, I have been sitting by myself on a chair in the packhouse living

room. I also know that it has been several hours since we got back.

Wolves around me are running around. A few-like my mother-seem to be happily rejoicing Stephanie’s return. Others seem confused. Still others, including Sheila and Jenny’s parents, seem worried or

nervous.

For their part, Alpha Randall, Luna Jane, and my father are hurriedly gathering information for, and meeting with, members of the werewolf council. They all have their “business faces” on.

I have no idea where James is. I know that Stephanie has been looking for him everywhere, but she has

yet to find him. As far as I know, he left before the end of the showdown between Jenny, Stephanie, and

Sheila. I do not even know if he saw it all, or if he saw how it ended.

As for me and what I am doing and how I am doing?

I am just sitting here, numb. I do not know where to turn or where to go. I do not know what to think. I

do not know who to trust, who to rely on, or even what part of this entire mess that I should be most

shocked by.

I mean, so many things were revealed today. What part of is more shocking? Is it that:

-Stephanie is alive?

-Stephanie tried to fake her own kidnapping?

-Stephanie has been living happily with a human for the past six years?

-Stephanie has a pup?

–Lily was innocent?

-Lily was mocked and tortured and punished for years for something she did not do?

–I slept with Sheila three times without knowing it? (I do vaguely recall having sex before I marked Jenny and while Jenny was out of town, but until today I thought those were just very vivid dreams.)

Stephanie not only recorded me sleeping with Shella, but also sent the video to Jenny?
