It felt strange, not having father eat with us. Andros is now sitting on the seat where father used to sit.

Andros's gaze darkened, his voice dropping to a chilling tone. "I would kill whoever helps Astrid."

A shiver went down my spine at his chilling words. Kill everyone who helps her? He is going to bring warriors with him to annihilate the whole Pack. This isn't the brother I knew.

"Let me handle it," I offered. I can't let anything bad happen.

Andros frowned, his eyes narrowing suspiciously. "What?"
