I knew the stories about the Wild, the natural disaster designed to destroy the world when it was time to end, a magical cleansing so nature and the Sidhe could start again. Nothing would remain, no sign of civilization or that we had ever been on earth. There would be nowhere to run or hide, not for me, not for Meira and Sassy.

Olivia replied. “I doubt that” Giovanni muttered under his breath. “So where is this pack? How long would it take before we reach there? How do you guys manage to stay away from us?” Ginny asked with curiosity. “There’s a portal which separates both worlds, technically, we’re invading this world by being here but it’s for a good cause though” Wilder explained. “What’s the pack like?
