Our walk back to the room was silent. As soon as we were inside, Carina let out a deep breath.
"You were amazing out there" she said with a smile.
"How?"
"The way you spoke up for yourself. I never knew you had that in you"
"I...I..."
I didn't know what to say so I just kept quiet.
"You have to show them you aren't scared of anything and maybe they will start respecting you"
Maybe.
Did I want their respect? Yes. For the first time in my life, I wanted to be seen as something more and not a fragile human.
"Thank you Carina. I want to rest now"
"Are you dismissing me? What about your plans to leave the pack?" She raised a brow.
"I still have plans to leave the pack but I don't think it'll work now. I'll let you know when I want to. Thank you so much for your help" I forced a smile.
"If you need anything, just let me know. I'll leave now" I nodded.
