Back at their dorm, Enid was surrounded by the comforting presence of her caregivers. Wednesday helped her into her favorite oversized t-shirt and soft pajama pants, being extra careful not to hurt her bandaged hands.

"Lie down, Eni," Wednesday said gently, guiding her to the bed. "You need to rest and heal."

Enid nodded, feeling exhausted from the emotional and physical turmoil of the day. As she snuggled under the covers, she noticed Wednesday pulling out a small, familiar object from her bag. It was her favorite plushie, a worn but beloved wolf she called Luna.

"Here, little cub," Wednesday said, tucking Luna into Enid's arms. "Luna will help you feel better."

Enid clutched the plushie tightly, her tears subsiding as she felt the familiar softness against her cheek. She glanced up at her caregivers, feeling a wave of gratitude.

"Thank you, Mama," she whispered, her voice muffled by the plushie.

Yoko and Davina sat on either side of her, their expressions filled with concern and love. Yoko gently brushed Enid's hair away from her face. "You're so brave, Eni. We're proud of you for standing up and asking for help."

Davina nodded in agreement. "And remember, if you ever need us, we're always here for you. No matter what."

Enid felt a warmth spread through her chest, knowing she had such a supportive family. "I love you all so much," she said, her voice soft but sincere.

"We love you too, little cub," Wednesday replied, leaning down to kiss Enid's forehead. "Now, rest and let us take care of everything."

As Enid closed her eyes, she felt a sense of peace wash over her. The pain from her wounds and the fear from being bullied seemed to melt away in the presence of her caregivers. She knew she was safe and loved, and that made all the difference.

Over the next few days, Wednesday, Yoko, and Davina took turns caring for Enid. They made sure she ate nutritious meals, helped her with her homework, and provided plenty of cuddles and comfort. Wednesday even made a special batch of Enid's favorite cookies, filling the dorm with a warm, sweet aroma.

One evening, as Enid was getting ready for bed, she felt a familiar pain in her hands. Her claws had grown back, sharper than before, and the marks on her palms were still healing. She felt a surge of frustration and sadness, but she knew she wasn't alone.

"Let me see, Eni," Wednesday said, noticing her discomfort. She gently took Enid's hands and examined them. "They're healing nicely, but we need to be careful."

Yoko brought over some soothing cream and carefully applied it to Enid's hands. "This will help with the pain and keep the skin soft."

Davina handed Enid a new pacifier, one that glowed softly in the dark. "Here you go, sweetie. This will help you feel better."

Enid took the pacifier gratefully, feeling its familiar comfort as she placed it in her mouth. She snuggled into her bed, Luna tucked under one arm and her caregivers close by.

"Goodnight, little cub," Wednesday whispered, tucking the blankets around Enid. "Sleep well and know that we're always here for you."

Enid felt a wave of contentment wash over her as she drifted off to sleep, knowing that no matter what challenges she faced, she had a loving and supportive family to help her through.
