It’s nearly dawn when we stop again. The hatch is opened and I stand up, stretching out my aching muscles as best as I can. This time we’re at what looks like an abandoned packhouse. I look around. Most everything here is dilapidated. It looks like the building could collapse at any moment.

“What is this place?” I ask.

Eli walks up beside me, taking my arm. “It’s your new home Cara.”

“The place could definitely use a woman’s touch. Is that why I’m here? Interior decorating? ‘Cause that’s not really my speciality.”

We walk inside and I can see that at least some work has been done to make the inside more liveable. The kitchen and appliances seem to be in working order, so there’s electricity at least. He walks me through what looks to be a living room that has cushions sitting on the floor and an old, smelly couch in the corner. I can see the faded paint on the wall where there once was a television, but that’s long gone.

“This is all that remains of the Silver Dawn Pack,” he finally says.

I look at him. “Your old pack?” He nods, looking around as if seeing the place for

the first time.

“Yep, with your help, we will restore this pack to its former glory, make it even stronger than it was before. Better.”

“So, let me get this straight. You’re old Alpha was defeated by Alpha Leander almost 20 years ago. And, because you were the Beta heir at the time, you think that his death makes you the new Alpha and you plan to restore and rebuild the pack using rogues?”

He turns and looks at me. “Rogues and you.”

“Me?”
