After a quick shower, I threw on a random shirt, a pair of jeans, and a jacket. I was about to leave when I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror.

A sense of déjà vu assaulted me as I recalled the day Kiara had picked clothes for my meeting. I closed my eyes and clenched my teeth. No! I wasn’t allowed to go there. I couldn’t let myself have even a single moment’s joy till my father’s killer was on the loose.

Take me to the packhouse, I want to confront Kevin.”

Leave before I order my men to snap your head off…”His steps faltered, his eyebrows furrowed as he said, “Nancy! How can you say that? You have known me for so long…”“There is no ‘Nancy’ here. You are talking to the Luna of the Mystical Pack. You are talking to the woman whose father was killed…”His eyes widened in horror as he realized what I was hinting at.

She is probably planning something.”“I know that, Richard. She is slier than a fox. We have to remain alert at all times. I let out a deep sigh and asked, “Did the Alphas agree to the meeting?”“Yes they did… but it did require some convincing.”I felt a sudden queasy sensation in my stomach and bile rose to my throat.

How I wished I could be lost in the soothing darkness forever.A wave of piercing sensation made me realize that sleeping for a long time would remain just that, a dream. It was a miracle that I had managed to sleep the previous night.A long, suffering, groan escaped my mouth as I pulled myself up. Massaging my head with one hand, I drew the sheets closer around me.Forcing myself to crack open my eyelids, I swept my eyes around my bedroom.

Thuk!.... the distinct creaking of the wooden floorboards hit my head like a hammer. A shudder coursed through me when I realized that it was a Sunday.Bile rose in my throat and I rushed to the bathroom. The queazy sensation in my stomac
