Marked by the Alpha
I made a show of composing myself, making my features go carefully neutral like I had seen Hector do thousands of times before, and in the end I was pretty sure that I’d done a good job of it.
“So,” I started in a voice that barely shook. “What’s the game plan?”
Hector licked his lips, and he broke our gazes as he informed me that obviously, he would be leaving the Crimson Shadow Pack. He said that he had to rush back if there was ever to be any hope of having a Pack to return to.
I knew that time was of the essence, and so this set off no alarm bells. Hell, I had seen that coming from the very moment he told me that there was trouble back home.
