Elsewhere, a Different Alpha Awakens
Far beyond Blood Moon territory, in a stone-walled Alpha suite lit only by dying embers, a man jolted upright in bed.
Alpha Caelan Tonin of Stormfall Pack. Powerful, feared, and bound by oath, He shared his bed with his chosen mate, Liora, a beautiful, strategic, and ambitious woman.
But Caelan didn’t look at her. He was staring at his own palm, his heart was pulsing with the brutality of almost bursting out of his chest, and his blue eyes instantly glowed.
His wolf roared awake inside him, violent, ecstatic, and stunned.
'Mate is close, go to mate.'
Caelan’s breath shuddered.
“No,” he growled. “Impossible.”
But the bond thread, dormant for years, was now pulsing.
Liora stirred beside him. “Caelan? What’s the matter?”
He didn’t answer.
