Chapter 74 Aftermath And Recovery

• Alpha Cade stood under the warm cascade of water, letting it wash away the grime and blood from the recent battle. The bathroom, a stark contrast to the chaos outside, was his sanctuary. The water beat against his skin, soothing his tense muscles and clearing his mind. For a moment, he closed his eyes, letting the steam envelop him, trying to find a sense of peace amidst the turmoil.
• He couldn’t stay here forever, though. His pack needed him. With a sigh, Cade turned off the shower and grabbed a towel, drying himself off. He stared at his reflection in the mirror, seeing the weariness in his eyes, the lines of worry etched on his face. But there was also a spark of determination. They had won the battle, but the war was far from over.
• He had pushed aside thought of Zyra and her new mate making love.
