the chestnut loner revealed she was wyatt's mother, a token of knowledge that caiaphas had already intuitively suspected. yet, what troubled the siren queen was the detached way in which laurel addressed the subject of her estranged son -- the polar opposite, it seemed, of the heated passion of the last estranged relative to darken her doorstep.

allowing some of her defensive posture to drop, caiaphas roughly studied the woman in a way that conveyed she had caught the lack of love in the woman's tone. "i do not know how he got here, he has not shared it. but i found him alone, not so far from here, and there are other wolves his age here. there was a big storm and they all arrived around that time." whether it was connected or not, caiaphas didn't truthfully care. "he is well."

if she was a more generous wolf, she would have asked laurel if she wanted to see her son -- but caiaphas was not a wolf known for her token kindness, and instead she simply stood there, letting the silence drift between them without a single shade of remorse.
