I would have expected to have received new orders about whether I should return to Wake or to Pearl.
Can I expect to receive new orders or is the game just going to leave me in Limbo?

Once you complete a patrol area you should send a patrol report for a new assignment. If the icon is a flag and not binoculars you may have to sink a certain tonnage before being assigned a new patrol.
Traffic isn't rampant around the marshalls. If you simply want to return to port and start a new patrol you would not be the first to return empty handed, in game or IRL.
