Chapter 38 DANE I reached for my grandfather , but it was as if the shadows .

attacking him were solid .

They smashed into my chest like a giants fist , throwing me back .

It reminded me of the day Aurora thought she was meeting with vampires , but instead it was something else .

My back cracked into a tree and a shock of pain went through my torso .

Were under attack in the woods ! I sent the alert through the pack bond .

This evil that dared enter my territory .
