Chapter 995: Go Wild
Soon afterwards, the ladies began to leave the dungeon. Some went to the old fox woman in hopes of persuading her to assist them in finding the needed veiling method that would let them keep their identities hidden. Rosie was told to accompany her mothers on this endeavor as they hoped her cuteness and the ancient fox’s obvious adoration for the dryad girl would help sweeten the talks.
Others went to the cities and Consortium territories in hopes of finding what they were looking for. Kitsara returned to her family in dogkin territory.
It was then that Jasmine, the last remaining wife in the room, turned toward Quinlan. She had a wry expression on her face.
