Damian The gates of Stoneveil Pack opened slowly, the sound alone was enough to make the air feel heavier. Metal grinding against stone. Power pressing down on us from every direction. I didn't move at first, something in my instincts screamed at me to turn back. But I couldn't, not when Ariana was out there… alone… surrounded by monsters. "Move," Lucan muttered under his breath. I stepped forward. We crossed the gates, the moment we entered, I understood why no one dared challenge Alpha Caldor. Stoneveil Pack was not just powerful, It was controlled. Every warrior we passed stood perfectly still. Their eyes followed us, sharp and watchful, but none of them spoke. None of them moved out of place. It was like walking into a kingdom where even breathing had rules.
