The figure at the edge of the forest didn’t move like a normal wolf…or even a normal shadow. It shimmered, its form blurred, energy crackling around it like lightning trapped in liquid. Every hair on my body stood on end. My bondmates…Asher, Gage, Kaelen, Kaelric, even Arlo…tightened their stances beside me, each aware of the surge that pulsed from the being.
“Trinity…” Eryx’s voice was low, almost a whisper. His gray eyes were fixed on the shadow. “This isn’t Rafe. This is… something older. Something bound to the Eclipse itself.”
I swallowed hard, my heart hammering. The first wave of the Eclipse had been strong, dangerous, but this felt different. I could feel the bloodline thrumming in my chest, faster than I’d ever known, pulling at me, demanding I acknowledge it fully.
