Anna looked to Elyse as she stood, feeling concern for her friend as she headed to the bathroom. Something had just happened to Elyse, and Anna hoped she was okay. Deep down, Anna knew Elyse would be fine. She was strong.
"She'll be okay," Anna said both to Cade and to reassure herself that it would be true.
She turned to Cade. Unlike Elyse, she hadn't seen the pictures of Nox's mother and sister, or if she had, she hadn't taken enough notice of them to verify that there was a resemblance. Anna trusted Elyse's judgement however, certain that it came from Elyse's super wolf powers. Anna felt only a slight twinge of jealousy that Elyse seemed to have control of hers. Anna still couldn't channel unless she was nervous, and the more she spent time with the other channelers, the more she got excited to use it.
"We're a very close group and very protective of our own. Likely when you were asking, you were arousing suspicion as you did with us," she spoke calmly. "Please don't take it personal, it's not meant to be so. I haven't seen him in quite sometime. He was around recently - we got a Christmas gift from him. I honestly don't know where he is or when he'll be back. He plays his cards close to his chest." Anna sighed, and took another drink of her coffee. "If you like though, I'd be willing to send him a message telling him about this meeting, and that you'd like to talk to him. I can't guarantee he'll say yes or even when or if he'll respond, but maybe you'll get something."
