Emily couldn't breathe.The silver light from the pendant spilled between her fingers, illuminating the kitchen in a soft, unnatural glow.Margaret stared at it.Her face had gone completely pale."Emily..."Emily looked at her."What is happening to me?"Margaret didn't answer."Margaret!"The old woman stepped closer."Listen to me.""I need you to stay calm.""How am I supposed to stay calm?"Emily's voice broke."There is a man outside who somehow knows my name.""My necklace is glowing.""And I just heard a woman inside my head call me..."She swallowed."...her little wolf."Margaret's eyes filled with tears.Emily saw it.The realization hit harder than anything else."You know."Margaret closed her eyes."You know what I am."Outside the cabin, Kael stood motionless.The silver light shining through the windows reflected in his eyes.Noah stared at him."That's impossible."Lena whispered,"She's not supposed to be able to do that."Kael's head snapped toward her."Do what?"L

The sound came from beneath them.Not from the forest.Not from the mountains.From the earth itself.A deep, slow vibration traveled through the ground beneath Emily's feet.The porch boards rattled.The windows of the cabin shook.Somewhere in the distance, a car alarm began to scream.Emily instinctively grabbed the railing."What's happening?"Kael moved toward her."Emily, come back inside.""I can't."She looked down.The silver pendant was still glowing against her chest."I don't know what's happening."Margaret stepped onto the porch.Her expression had changed completely."Don't move."Emily looked at her."Why?""Because the ground is responding to you."Emily stared."What does that mean?"Margaret didn't answer.Another tremor rolled through the meadow.This time, the earth cracked.A thin line appeared in the grass several feet from the porch.Emily gasped.Kael immediately moved between her and the crack."Back."The line widened.A faint silver light shone through the

For several seconds, no one moved.Emily stood in the middle of the meadow.Silver light curled around her body like smoke.The broken pieces of her pendant rested in her trembling hands.Beneath her feet, the glowing path stretched toward the mountains.It wasn't a trail that had been there before.The grass had parted in a perfect line.Silver symbols appeared one after another as the path continued into the darkness.Emily stared at it."First?"Her mother's silver wolf remained beside her.Magnus slowly shifted back into human form.Blood ran from a cut above his eyebrow."What did you mean?"Emily's mother looked toward the mountains."I mean exactly what I said."Kael shifted back as well.His clothes were torn, his shoulder bleeding, but he barely noticed."What is down there?"Her mother looked at him."The beginning."Kael's expression hardened."Of what?""The Moonblood."She looked at Emily."Not a family.""Not a pack.""A bloodline that was never supposed to exist."Emily

The creature stepped into the moonlight.No one moved.For several heartbeats, even the wolves seemed to forget how to breathe.It was enormous.At first glance, Emily thought it was a wolf.Then she realized that wasn't entirely true.It had the body of a wolf, but it stood higher than any wolf she had ever seen. Its shoulders rose above Kael's head, and its claws dug deep into the stone as it emerged from the ancient doorway.Its fur was black.Not ordinary black.It seemed to absorb the moonlight.Red veins of light moved beneath its coat like glowing cracks in stone.Its eyes were the deepest crimson Emily had ever seen.And around its neck...A silver chain hung loosely against its chest.Attached to it was a crescent pendant.Emily's breath caught."That's..."Her mother stared at the creature."No."The First's enormous white wolf form stepped backward.For the first time since Emily had met her...She looked terrified.Kael noticed."What is it?"The First didn't answer.Magnu

The mountain doors slammed shut.Emily stood frozen.Her father's face was gone.The image of him remained burned into her mind.Alive.After twenty-five years.Alive.And trapped somewhere inside the mountain."Dad!"She ran toward the stone doorway.Kael caught her before she could reach it."Emily, wait!""Let me go!""There's something behind that door!""My father is behind that door!""I know!""Then let me go!"Kael held her shoulders."Listen to me."She looked into his eyes."He told you to run."Emily's breathing slowed."He knows something.""Exactly."Kael glanced toward the mountain."He was warning you."Emily's eyes filled with tears."But I can't leave him.""You aren't leaving him."Kael's voice softened."We're going back.""When?""Tonight."Emily stared at him."You promise?""I promise."Something inside Emily calmed.Not completely.But enough.She nodded."Okay."Kael released her.The moment his hands left her shoulders...Emily felt something strange.A sudden
