“Oh, I should have told you this before. Callahan never took in a new member in the pack under any circumstances. That

The elderly woman stepped forward, a stick in her hand that she used to slowly walk forward. I gulped nervously as she kept coming closer.

I wanted to step back, but Elijah muttered low in his breath to keep still.
