Chapter 55

• Cain's point of view.
• My rage boils in my veins as I pace the boardroom, my wolf begging for vengeance for my mate. I know she's alive because I can feel her heartbeat, but that's all I can sense. I know she's too far away. My fist pierces the wall without a thought or a flinch from the pain; it feels good to feel something.
• "Alpha..." Hanz inquires calmly. My closest friends and allies are gathered around the table, all as concerned as I am. Dawn is sitting beside Hanz in the chair to my right. Jazz and Stephan are sitting across from my mother and father. I've appointed two Betas from the packs that my father took over. With their appointed status of running the two packs they belong to, they are as close to Alpha as they can get. Opposite them are Claude and his brother Claus, who have remained silent for the time being.
