Shiloh hadn't wanted everyone knowing about her divorce from Manuel. It was private, and she wanted it to stay that way. But when Tony warmly invited Manuel to stay a few more days, she couldn't keep quiet. "Commander Ruffin, that won't be necessary." Shiloh forced down the emotions rising inside her and kept her voice even. "We're divorced. There's nothing between us anymore." The room went dead silent. Manuel's face darkened. He swallowed his anger.

They giggled and whispered. Silas walked up onto the stage and stood in front of all of them with his hands placed on his hips. He cleared his throat. All of them immediately stopped talking and all eyes were on him. Power radiated off of him and his voice was loud and clear as he spoke out to them, "We have a visitor."

Get me a saw. **Tito:** Here boss. **Kai:** Hold out his dick. (Kai stood up) Lucas pleaded weakly. His eyes were full of fear and he struggled with the little strength he had left. Tito’s boys held Lucas and Tito held the cap of his penis. Kai sawed it off gently. Smiling as Lucas screamed, blood and catarrh coming out of his nostrils. Blood gushed out of the spot his penis once stood. Tito’s boys let him go and he fell. He kept muttering inaudible statements. His lips moved and it looked like he was probably saying his last prayers.

Drip. Volkov didn't move. Didn't shift his weight. Didn't lower the gun. A statue carved from violence. My legs cramped. My back ached. But I didn't move either. Stone doesn't move. Stone doesn't feel. Then his earpiece crackled. The sound was faint, but in the heavy silence, it might as well have been a shout. "Sector 4 clear," a voice said through the static. Professional. Calm. "Drill complete. Target neutralization simulation successful. Resetting power."

The room went silent. Everyone was caught off guard. I lifted my hand, signaling to the tech crew. "Can you pull up the original video file we just watched? Zoom in on that part, please." The big screen flicked to life again. The video slowed to a crawl, crystal clear. People crowded forward, squinting at the screen, until someone let out a surprised yelp. "Whoa, hold up! Something's definitely off here." "The movements are all jerky...and the skin texture's way off..."

She didn’t know then that some silences weren’t empty. They were waiting. Waiting for the moment they could break everything open.

Then— Quiet. Absolute, echoing silence. The Moon had fallen silent.

The entire pack hall fell instantly silent. The doors burst open with a bang, and Nolan stormed in, the full weight of the Silverglade Pack’s leadership trailing nervously behind him. The moment he threw me a heartbeat's glance, Janine, who was still holding the knife aloft, was flung violently across the hall by an invisible force. She smashed through three support pillars and landed embedded deep in the far wall. Despite being Silverglade’s top warrior, Aiden had already collapsed into a trembling heap on the floor. Faelan, who was finally free, leapt up and ran to Nolan, sobbing as he threw himself into his father’s arms.

No one knew when it could reopen. Benjamin approached, wanting to offer some words of comfort, but nothing came. He, who could speak circles around anyone in business, now stood helpless and mute in front of her. Before he could speak, Nissa lifted her phone. Her eyes were dull, expression gray. On the screen was a single sentence. "Did you do this?" Benjamin froze. She suspected him? He could not believe it. A wave of cold ran through his chest, his heart gripped by grief, anger, and emptiness.
