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 .

Darker and older .

But Id shredded the creatures in that house .

This , whatever it was , slammed me backward without effort .

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 .

Sent pictures and impressions of the thing we faced .

Instantly , wolves were transforming .

Pack members were running for us .

I felt for Evelyn .

She was a member of the Hundred Lakes Pack , which meant she wasnt part of the Blue Ridge Pack network , yet .

Thankfully , as an Alpha , I could still speak to her when I needed to .

Evelyn , go inside .

Were under attack .

But Im the chosen .

Get in the house ! I snarled .

Youre pregnant with my child ! 2/6 I cut off the conversation , which had happened in bare seconds .

as the shadows pinned me to the tree .

It released me , and I fell to the ground in a crouch .

My wolf was snapping and snarling at this … enemy .

This evil that dared enter my territory .

My body rippled and grew , my teeth and claws growing , my clothes ripping as I took on my lycan form .

I attacked .

I tore at the shadows .

My grandfather choked and gagged .

His lips were taking on a blue tinge as the vines held him aloft , his feet kicking inches above the earth .
