Grayson could not get the words out of his head.

"Bring him home."

Three easy words.

Three words that are dangerous.

They followed him everywhere for days.

Into gatherings.

Into reports on patrol.

Into meetings for strategy.

Into slumber.

Especially when it comes to sleep.

Because Grayson found himself wondering the same thing each time he closed his eyes.

Where is home?

    The rider knelt in the dirt.Blood covered his clothes.His horse had collapsed behind him.And the words he had spoken seemed to suck all the air from the courtyard.“Blackwater has fallen.The Northern Council is dead.The Sovereign is coming.”Silence stretched.Heavy.The Prophet stood perfectly still.For the first time since his arrival, he looked uncertain.Not weak.Not defeated.Just caught off guard.And somehow that frightened Savannah more than anything else.Because men like him weren't supposed to be surprised.Mason noticed it too.The old Alpha stepped forward slowly."What does that mean?"The rider looked exhausted.Broken and terrified.His eyes found the Prophet.Then immediately dropped to the ground.Like looking directly at the man hurt."The Council is gone."His voice cracked."All of them."Nobody moved.Frank looked stunned.Actually stunned.Like a man who had just heard the moon had fallen out of the sky.Damon frowned."What happened?"The rider swallowed

    The blade moved.A thin line of blood ran down Ethan's neck.The entire courtyard exploded.Damon lunged.Three Sentinels grabbed him.Barely.The Beta roared so violently that several younger wolves flinched."Ethan!"The boy fought against the wolves holding him."Dad!"The Prophet didn't even blink.He simply stood there watching.Calm and patient.Like a man observing a storm from behind glass.Savannah felt rage burn through her chest.Every instinct she possessed screamed at her to move.To attack.To do something.But she couldn't.Nobody could.Because one wrong move would get Ethan killed. The realization sat like poison in her stomach.Beside her, Grayson looked carved from stone.No emotion.No movement.Nothing.That frightened her more than Damon losing control.Because Savannah knew Grayson.Knew him better than almost anyone.And she knew exactly what happened when he became this quiet.He was thinking.Calculating.Preparing.The Prophet's eyes never left him."Now you

    Nobody moved.Nobody breathed.The courtyard had become a living thing.The Prophet stood beyond the broken gate as though he belonged there. As though Reed Territory was simply another room he had chosen to enter.Thousands of wolves waited behind him.Rows upon rows disappearing into the darkness of the forest.Not shouting.Not threatening.Just standing.Watching.That somehow felt worse.Mason Reed stepped forward first.The old Alpha's shoulders straightened.His wolf pushed closer to the surface.Amber eyes glowed beneath the courtyard lanterns."You stepped into my territory."The Prophet smiled.Not mockingly.Not aggressively.Patiently.Like a teacher listening to a child explain something incorrectly."No."The answer was calm.Almost pleasant.His gaze shifted.Past Mason.Past the Sentinels.Past everyone.Straight to Grayson."I came home."The words landed like a stone thrown into still water.Savannah felt Grayson go rigid beside her.Mason did too.The Alpha's jaw ti

    The room didn’t recover from the words.The Sentinel was still standing in the doorway, breathing like he had run through fire just to deliver them.“…they’ll send Ethan’s head instead.”It hung there.Ugly. Clean. Final.Then the world reacted.Not all at once.First was Savannah.She didn’t speak. Didn’t move for a full second. Then her hand slowly slid off the table, fingers curling into a tight fist so hard her knuckles went white.Grayson saw it.He felt it.That shift in her breathing.Dangerous silence.Damon stood so fast his chair hit the floor.“No,” he said again, but this time it wasn’t a refusal.It was disbelief trying to become reality and failing.Mason didn’t shout.That was worse.The Alpha just turned his head slightly.“Repeat that.”The Sentinel swallowed har

    Frank's words seemed to hang above the war room long after he said them."Because there was never supposed to be another survivor."The storm outside crashed against the manor windows.Thunder rolled through the valley.Still nobody moved.Nobody breathed.Savannah looked at Frank.Then at Grayson.Then back at Frank again.Because she was no longer sure which one looked worse.Frank appeared like a man who had just watched twenty years of lies collapse beneath his feet.Grayson looked like he wanted to tear the truth out of him with his bare hands.Mason recovered first.Of course he did.The Alpha straightened slowly."What survivor?"Frank instantly regretted speaking.Everyone saw it.The panic.The hesitation.The realization that he'd revealed more than he intended.Unfortunately for him, there was no taking it back.Mason stepped forward."What survivor, Frank?"The older wolf swallowed.Hard.His hands trembled."I don't know."Nobody believed him.Not even slightly.Hugh bark

    Savannah noticed that Grayson had stopped letting her out of his sight.Not completely.Not in an obvious way.But enough.Enough that she noticed.Enough that it annoyed her.The realization hit sometime around breakfast.She left the dining room.Grayson left the dining room.She walked toward town.Five minutes later, she spotted him across the street pretending to examine a delivery truck. Which would have been convincing if she didn't know him. And if the truck hadn't belonged to Dominic.By lunch, she'd caught him doing it three more times.By dinner, she was ready to murder him."You are following me."Grayson looked up from his plate."No.""You absolutely are.""No.""You were outside the tailor.""I needed thread.""You don't sew.""I could start."Savannah stared.Across the table, Dominic immediately started choking on his drink.H
