Chapter 297

LEAH

I hold Ethan closer trying to calm him, but with the feeling of malevolence in the air, I can’t blame my son for the way he’s screaming.

“Evacuate the pack to the emergency bunker,” Aaron tells me in a low voice.

“What’s happening?” I whisper fearfully, even though I doubt he has any more of an idea than I do.

“I’m not sure. It feels like-But it can’t be. It doesn’t make sense,” Aaron replies. “You oversee the evacuation, I need to head down to the front gate. They’re not answering my calls.”

My stomach pitches with anxiety.

If the sentries at the gate aren’t answering Aaron’s calls-maybe because they can’t-then something bad must have happened.

Aaron tugs me in for a quick kiss, and then I turn to James, who is standing alert nearby.

“We need to begin evacuating to the emergency bunker,” I say to

him..

He nods and starts off to do just that, but in that moment,

there’s this loud bang that echoes through the house.

James starts herding freaked out pack members through the house, but I turn and follow Aaron where he’s hurrying toward the front of the mansion and the source of that loud banging noise.

Halfway down the hallway, this dark, icy cold, terrible wave of power washes over me, and my footsteps falter.

Ethan isn’t crying anymore, he’s quietened down to whimpering, his face turned into my chest.
