Chapter 175 AURORA The air in the war room was heavy with tension .

Maps and reports littered the table , but my eyes kept drifting to the door as if expecting something , someone .

Luna , Trajans voice broke through my thoughts .

We need to move the scouts to the northern perimeter .

If the Nameless is preparing an assault , thats where hell strike first .

I nodded , forcing my mind to focus .

Do it .

And double the patrols near the river .

If hes as desperate as I think he is , he wont stick to the obvious routes .

Trajan hesitated , his dark eyes studying me .

Are you all right ? Im fine , I said , a little too quickly .

His gaze didnt waver .

Youve been distracted ever since ..

Im fine , I repeated , sharper this time .

The room fell quiet , the pack warrior around the table exchanging uneasy glances .

I sighed , pinching the bridge of my nose .

Im sorry , I said softly .

I just … I have a bad feeling about this .

Like were walking into a trap .

Chapter 175 Morwen , who had been quietly studying the runes etched into the tables edge , looked up .

Your instincts are rarely wrong , Luna .

But even if it is a trap , we have no choice but to face it head on .

I nodded , her words both comforting and unsettling .

Well be ready , Trajan said firmly .

Whatever the Nameless throws at us , well fight .

The room buzzed with quiet determination as the warrior began discussing strategies .

But I couldnt shake the unease gnawing at me .

Something was coming .

Something bigger than we could .

prepare for .

The first warning came with a distant howl , haunting and scary .

It echoed through the silence of the pack house , raising every hair on my body .

I bolted upright , the maps and notes I had been checking over scattering onto the floor .

Trajan burst into the room moments later after hed gone out , his werewolfs form towering in the doorway .
