He laughed heartily, tapping my back. “Don’t worry, Ramsey, I’m not going anywhere… at least not yet. Besides, it’ll take more than a little coma to get rid of me. How have you been?” He leaned back and looked at me with a twinkle in his eyes.

“But tell me, what did I miss while I was lying dead here? Or have you managed to ruin the whole. pack in my absence?”

I chuckled. “It wasn’t the same without you but I’m glad you’re back… you can appraise it by yourself.”

Just then, his expression turned sombre. He glanced around the room, catching each Elder’s eyes before settling his gaze back on me. With a deep sigh, he finally spoke, with sadness in his

voice.

“I heard that Alpha Logan didn’t make it…”

The room fell silent as some of the Elders present lowered their gaze, their faces reflecting sorrow. My mind flitted back to Lyla and I wondered if she blamed me for her dad’s death.

“Yes,” I finally said. “Alpha Logan was a fine Alpha and we will all miss him. His loss will be felt across the South.”

My grandfather nodded slowly. “I’m alive today because of his bravery, you know… I thought those Ferals got me for good because one minute, one of them was jumping at me and in a blurry, Logan turned into my saviour. I owe him my life. So, it’s only right that we honour him in his passing”

“Honor him?” Elder Thorne arched his brow. “Surely, it’s not what I’m thinking.”

“Yes!” my grandfather nodded. “We must all attend his funeral. His pack is a few hours away from White Mountains and it’s a way to console the family and maybe give them closure.”

“I’m afraid, but that cannot be done. A Lycan attending the funeral of a Werewolf… travelling down to their pack… it’s never done!
