Chapter 230

AARON

The slaug hter I find at the cabin is worse than the carnage I left behind at the factory where we fought Tobin and his men.

All of the guys I left behind to protect the property are dead.

Every single one of them.

Starting with the guys manning the gate and outer perimeter, all the way up the mountain to the cabin itself.

I can’t even imagine the number of wolves it must have taken to overwhelm and defeat my most highly-trained men.

My heart feels like it’s being slowly torn out of my chest as I desperately run into the cabin, only to find more of the same.

My dead men, and their last line of defense.

Worse, Lillian wasn’t spared.

I know in my heart she would have done everything to protect Ethan right up to her last dying breath.
