RISE OF THE SILVER WOLF
He ran right past, his little feet moving down the hallway toward the stairs, clutching a stuffed wolf toy I had never seen before.
"Aunt Catherine! Aunt Catherine, look! This one lights up!"
My heart cracked down in the middle. I stepped into the hallway, gripping the doorframe for support so I wouldn't fall. My ribs screamed with every breath, and my wolf whimpered somewhere deep inside me, still too damaged to help.
Six months ago, Henry was dying.
The memory crashed over me. My baby boy, sick in that hospital bed, his little body rejecting everything the pack doctors tried. Kidney failure, so aggressive and fatal.
