Chapter 0362 Nina My eyes widened even more as the old man's words echoed in my head.

"Ah," he said, patting his rounded belly. "Good burger." Enzo gavea confused look, but said nothing. I didn't know what to say; how had Frank read my mind like that? It must have been a werewolf ability, but... it was so powerful. I supposed that he was a Beta, after all.
But what did he mean when he said that no one would need to die? How did he know for sure? Thad so many questions, but no tto ask them. Frank, without another word, headed out of the diner with Enzo and I on his heels. Enzo shotanother look, but I only shook my head ever so slightly. After that, we climbed back into the car and were on the road again. As Frank drove, I was still too taken aback to talk about it again. If he was somehow right, and that I could defeat Selena without anyone having to die, then that changed things drastically. But how? How could she be stopped without violence? She was so powerful thanks to her witch powers in combination with her werewolf abilities that I couldn't possibly think about any other scenato stop her that didn't involve violence.
But if Frank was right when he said that I could stop Selena without anyone getting hurt, then that gaveshope.
And maybe hope was what I needed more than anything else.
We eventually made our way onto a highway. The steady droning of the truck's engine and the lack of curves in the road made it easier to relax, and with a belly full of food, I felt myself drifting off. Even Enzo seemed to be nodding off when I glanced up at him, and it madefeel safe. I didn't feel afraid to put my head on Enzo's shoulder and let sleep take overfor the first tin almost two days as we drove, and Frank didn't say anything to break the silence. Soon enough, I had fallen into a dreamless slumber that was much needed after going so long without proper rest.

Enzo and I both jerked our heads up to see that Frank had pulled over on the side of a road. We were no longer on the highway, but had seemingly returned to the country roads that were thickly wooded with pine trees on either side. The air felt cool and fresh, even inside the truck, and there was a light mist that had settled on the ground. The mist wasn't thick enough to obscure our sight, but it was just enough to create an oddly calming yet also spooky atmosphere.
"Where are we?" I asked, sitting up and looking around. I didn't see the go the Alpha King's mansion anywhere around couldn't even see the tops of the massive spires poking up above the trees. "Sorry," Frank said, putting the truck in park. "This is as far as I'm willin' to take ya." Enzo looked around, then looked over at Frank. "How far out are we?" he asked.
Frank shrugged. "About an hour's any walk. I ain't goin' any closer. Yerm business ain't/mine, and I've gotta get hbefore it's dark."
Frank was right. When I glanced at the clock on the truck's dashboard, it was already late afternoon. Considering the fact that we had returned to the werewolf realn before lunchtime, it had been a long day of traveling. And, now that winter was upon us, the sun would be going down soon. The thought of walking out in these woods in the dark again freakedout too much to even want to think about it, and I just wanted to get to the Alpha King's mansion before that happened. X
