"Ella, Ella wake up." Sinclair's urgent voice invades my dreams, just as the ground begins to tremble beneath my feet. As I'm wrenched awake, I realize the ground wasn’t trembling at all, instead my sleeping body was being shaken by my mate. Sinclair's handsome face hovers above my own, his eyes glowing as his hand rests on my shoulder. "Come on baby, we’ve got to go."

"I- what? What do you mean?" I mumble groggily.

"We’re under attack, we have to go, sweetheart." Sinclair explains, pulling me up. 'There's no time to take anything with us, just get dressed."

"But I don't understand, under attack from who?" I ask, feeling as though my mind is dragging. When we went to bed tonight we'd been overjoyed with our victory at the press conference, thinking we were out of the

Sinclair returns to the closet to dress himself while I sit on the edge of the bed in a daze, belatedly realizing he forgot to provide me with underwear. I open my mouth to tell him as much, but he simply scoops me up in his arms, "We’ll buy you some once we're safe, trouble." He promises, then sweeps me out of the room. Sinclair carries me down to the mansion's basement level, surrounded by guards.

The King is dead, the Alpha council are all dead. It would seem our decision to call him out and the threat of losing his position pushed him over the edge. He's deployed the royal army to lock down Moon Valley, and likely sent assassins to take out the betas of the other packs so they can't coordinate against him as a shadow council.
