Two weeks after we went to the Silver Dawn pack, Alpha Jerattacked Shadow Falls. Anders received the call
for help. He immediately sent out a mind link to the entire pack, ordering half the warriors to assemble in the
back immediately and the other half to surround the packhouse. All pack
members unable to fight were ordered into the safe rooms within the packhouse.

closet grabbing an overnight bag before taking my hand and pullingto Anders and Calista’s room. When he
opens the door, she is waiting, wide-eyed.

“Chand take care of us yourself.” | say to him.
“As soon as | can. | love you Lily bud.”
He makes sure we're in the safe room before racing off. | watch and see him shift into Donovan before
he’s even out the door.
| turn and it’s not long before the door is closed and locked with a resounding clang. For a moment. I'm terrified,
lost in my own emotions. Then, Calista is there, clapping her hands.
“Okay everyone. Let's take a look around and see what we have here. | know this was sudden, but we plan for
this every month. Our warriors are protecting the packhouse, so | believe we'll be safe. We just
need to wait it out.”
Calista organizes our room, which is a mix of elderly, mothers with young children and other pregnant women
like us. As we begin to settle in, | send up a prayer to the Moon Goddess to look over Clint, our
pack and the Shadow Falls pack.
That night is one of the longest of my life. | don’t want to bother Clint, knowing he’s fighting, but | can’t help
reaching out to him periodically, just to feel his presence, | make sure not to interrupt him or push too hard. My
amazing mate, while he doesn’t speak, will open his mind for a second when | push, just to letknow he’s
okay.
Calista and | are sitting side by side on a makeshift bed, holding each other as we both worry about the fate of
our mates, our pack and our friends. At spoint, | finally fall asleep.

“Nothing that won't heal.”
“Clint. Go shower. Meetin my room in 30 minutes.” Anders directs, holding a stoic Cali.
Clint nods before wrapping his arm aroundand guidingto our room. He immediately goes to the shower,
and | grab him sclothes.
“Was it Alpha Jerome?”
“Yes. He's dead. Leander killed him.”
“Well thank the goddess for that. | can’t help but be angry that the elder council didn’t move faster. This could all
have been avoided. Did they lose a lot of warriors?”
Clint looks atfor a moment. “Anders will give you and Calista an update at the stime. Con, let's go
to their room.”
My heart rate immediately spikes. | know my mate. If he’s not tellingsomething, it’s because it’s bad. If they
are telling us together, they are concerned that what they are going to tell us will affect us enough to impact our
babies.
