Kali’s going to be pissed when she finds out I took revenge on her behalf—but I don’t care. I made a promise to her mother, and I intend to keep it: protect Kali with my life. That includes eliminating any threat—past or present. Besides, her mother was right. Kali’s tired. She’s carried enough pain for too long. Fought too many battles. She deserves peace now. If I have to be the monster to give her that, so be it. As I step out of the hospital, the fresh air hits me like a slap, but it does nothing to clear the rage burning in my chest. Because I didn’t kill Logan. I’m halfway to shifting, ready to run and burn off some of this heat clawing under my skin, when a sharp pulse of energy jolts through my head—a mind-link. Fury. “Alpha. You’ve received a letter… from the Alpha King.”
