Chapter 130

• 3 months earlier
• Caleb sat at his desk, surrounded by paperwork and files containing the financial records of the pack. His brow furrowed as he sifted through the incomplete and scattered information. The missing pieces, crucial for restoring the pack's stability, were nowhere to be found.

There was so much he had to do, from trying to restore the pack's finances to training the pack members in preparation for any potential threats, all while navigating through the chaos and reassuring the last few survivors of a day in the sun again. But how could he focus on managing any of those tasks when it looked like he'd been doing a god-awful job so far and everything still looked to be in utter disarray?
