wasn’t about to give up so easily.

“Is that it?” I asked, maybe a little more bitter than I intended.

He sighed. “Listen, the pack is restless, Karl. Your absence is making people

question your leadership. And your brother waking up? They’re saying maybe

it’s time for the ‘true Alpha’ to come back and lead.”

Anger shot through my veins. “The true Alpha? Are you kidding me? I’ve been
