Skarg is (was) part of the 'evil pack' - but there will be a future for him Cute doggies!

And immediately my mind - my internal ear conjured - 'there's a fire starting in my heart' with the appropriate warbling, of course! Yes, Theo saved them! That was not him murdering them at all.

And still they have a little more adventuring to do...

Indeed... but I promise the ending will make up for all the suffering (at least, I hope so...)

There might be wilder explanations!

Oh, Jack will have his little chapter... in which you'll learn how special he is.

Since I didn't believe Theodore, even under the influence of a curse, would do such a horrendous thing... I basically looked into my crystal ball and saw the truth Thank you for your appreciation!

Yep, and I knew it would be a lil' twist!

Chapter Forty-Three – The Noose Around His Neck The battlefield was quiet now. Everyone he’d ever known, his pack, his father, they were all dead. He must have slept by his father’s side for hours, because the sun was up now, its harsh light cruel and unforgiving. Wolves bowed to the Moon. But her sibling, the sun, had never been an enemy. The snow glinted like a sea of fireflies, the bodies of fallen wolves breaking its surface here and there. Would they all decay in the light of day

Homme fatale is a very good description for Bastien at this point in the story! We'll see if he lives up to this characterization or if there is more to him...

Oh, we will see. Lawrence is in the search of truth, and he will unearth - maybe - more than one.

Would be so far-fetched... I'm thinking... since the powers that be today seem to enjoy being in 'select clubs'.

Lawrence will eventually get into Lukas's diary, and the revelations will be surprising... Also, in my creation of the mystery for this story, I re-read very interesting novels (together totaling eight volumes, but heck, authors need to be readers first) - which I won't disclose right now so that I don't feed too many speculations that might drive readers nuts, lol! Good for Lawrence that he doesn't care about rituals at all!

Clues over clues, yes, they do exist for a reason - like in a labyrinth, Lawrence needs to check all the possible routes until he finds the exit.

I'm definitely glad to hear that, because there are certain layers to His Dark Eminence... as for Bastien being 'sugary'... enjoy it while it lasts, he-he-he...
