Enzo and the rest of us stared after Lewis and the dean in disbelief as they walked out of the conference room. Were they really not even going to try to help the surrounding towns? I could understand that Cynthia’s main concern was for her campus, but the Fullmoons were the ones who were at war with the Crescents, so I felt as though it should have been their responsibility to mitigate the damages. The excuse that ‘we figured it out, so the other towns could figure it out as well’ was just pathetic and it made my blood boil.

“What are we gonna do?” Matt asked once we were alone again with our new pack. “They’re really just gonna let all of those other people suffer?”

Enzo shook his head as he clenched his jaw so tightly I could see the muscles straining under his skin. He stood abruptly, pushing his chair back.

I could tell that Enzo was furious that his father’s own Beta would just let other people suffer at the hands of the Crescents. Good, innocent people who had absolutely nothing to do with this stupid war. And it was all because of whatever power Mountainview had thanks to its purely coincidental location.

Not only did he need to save his father for his pack’s sake, but he also had to bring him back to save our neighboring towns from the Crescents.
