By Darwin’s reaction, I knew at once that the voice belonged to the Alpha of Sky Pride. I shifted in my seat and turned around to face him. When I did, I was surprised by his

appearance.

He was

quite tall, with dark skin, gray hair, and beard, and a large belly. His brown eyes crinkled at the corners and when he smiled, I was impressed by the whiteness of his teeth.

He walked into the room with the support of a young woman. They both appeared ill, though they wore it differently. The young woman was beautiful, with long, thick curly dark hair, and pretty hazel eyes, but her frame was incredibly thin. A small wind could easily have blown her away.

The Alpha himself appeared to have difficulty breathing. Once he reached us, he opened his mouth to speak but began to cough before he could utter a word.

Darwin rushed over to support him on the other side. He smiled at the young woman, and she lowered her head to avoid his gaze.

“She is a captured spy of Yurene,” I stated. “Pay her no mind.”
