Kade’s POV
The cloudy afternoon had turned to a cold drizzle by sunset, making the forest around the remote Nightshade pack even darker than usual. As Kade’s car pulled up the long dirt road leading to the main pack compound, his wolf bristled with expectation of what he might find within those tall, moss-covered stone walls.
“If our mate is truly alive, what will you do?” Ghost asked.
Kade’s jaw clenched. “I don’t know.” And it was the truth; Samantha was his mate, but she had still destroyed his family. He couldn’t mark her. And yet… He couldn’t just let her go, either.
But this was all speculation, anyway. Kade had watched Samantha’s body be lowered into the ground mere days prior. Unless she had suddenly popped back up out of the earth, it was impossible for her to still be alive.
