I took a deep breath, relieved. Even though I knew he didn't like it that much, I released his hand and hugged him for a moment. "I will do as you say, father. Thank you". I released him and kissed his hand, respectfully. "Thank you so much, father. I did not mean to cause any trouble. You know I have a soft heart, and I can't see one of ours in pain. No matter what pack, or even none at all. It is my call and I shall follow it." My heart broke thinking of the war.<br/><br/>I remembered Jacen was probably terrified in my room, and asked to be excused for a minute. I knelt by him and hugged him gently. "You are safe here. Father knows I will claim you, so he won't harm you as long as you're here and stay away from pack territory before I can claim you. Don't worry. Just please, stay here and rest. I have to go back there".<br/><br/>As I went back, I took a deep breath. "Is there no way we can find peace, father? This war between us... this is wrong. We have to fight the outside enemy, not amongst our own brethren."
