I was frozen in shock, watching the scene unfold before me. My entire being was creaking in disbelief, it couldn't be, could it?
Caden was an Alpha? How was that even possible? He was my father’s assassin, he was like a servant in my father’s pack. The people of Crimson pack knew him as “Ghost”
So why were the people in this village bowing down and calling him their Alpha?
I watched as Caden moved into the crowd, and for the first time, the terrifying predator I had known was gone. He stopped in front of a woman whose face was a map of deep scars. I braced for him to ignore her, but he reached out, his large, calloused hands framing her face with a tenderness that made my jaw drop.
He pressed his forehead against hers in a silent, intimate gesture of shared grief. They stayed like that
