I’d finally started to believe I was close to something—one truth, one answer, one person who could tell me why my life had been torn apart. And now he was gone.

I felt a surge of anger bubble through my chest as I thought about Jacob, the one person I never suspected would betray us. He was a respected man and very friendly with everyone. Jacob, our pack’s storyteller, the one who tells us our history, our myths, and the strength of our pack’s loyalty. He always organes the pack bonfire, but no one had seen it coming.
