in silver cuffs. His wrists are red from the silver, but aren’t raw and bloody like he has been fighting them. It’s what most wolves do. What they don’t seem to understand is that the cuffs are designed to withstand
Finn knows what he is here for and he has accepted that fate. He thinks he is going to die here today. What he doesn’t know is that Alpha and I have searched through his and his wolf’s mind. He truly thought he was doing what was asked of him as the best course of action for these pack members. He now understands he wasn’t made to be the leader because he was the
best choice of the options, but because he is expendible. Amy, his mate doesn’t want him, because of his rank and current status of being a rogue. No one deserves to suffer the way he has, the way my mate d “Gather round!” I call out to the group of rogues trying and failing to stay in the background but close enough to hear what is going on. I pull Kennedy to me and place her in front of my left leg. It’s a sign of peac arm is locked around her waist ready to pull her back to safety if needed though. I’m not stupid. She doesn’t flinch or question the position, just rests her

“How was that accomplished?” I don’t need to know, but Kennedy does. She needs this closure for her and Emily.
“The opportunity was found while the
girl was separated from her friends.” I feel Kennedy tense her fingers
into my arm, but she shows no other signs of distress. “Three of our warriors, one being Dirk,” He looks from Kennedy to me and back again. “Corralled her into running towards the wolfsbane grove. The goal w she fell. I watched from the other side of the
gorge. We thought there was no way she would survive that fall.” He takes a shakey breath. “I would have looked for her if I thought she had any chance of survival p>

“And the attack yesterday?” I have to move this conversation along, we need Amy and her
