Author's note: This is from Duke's point of view

Another day passed in a flash.
I was busy settling things with the company and coaxing Serina who was getting increasingly anxious, and every hour felt like a minute.
Was I calm? Absolutely not.
So many things could go wrong, and I could die, but I felt like I didn't have a choice.
I went through this in my mind a million times and the outcome was always the same. Staying as-is will only bring me untimely death, but if I awaken my wolf, we might have a chance.
I'm thinking as WE because I'm including Serina here also. I know that she would do anything for me, even put herself in danger, and this was me doing the same.
Was I selfish for doing this? How would I react if our roles were reversed? I was not sure, but I believed that I would give her the choice in the matter that impacts her body.
It was not hopeless. After all, if we have zero chances of success, Serina wouldn't go through this.
