My eyes caught him. Just a glimpse of his side profile–and my entire world seemed to pause. Every nerve in my body screamed, every blood cell seemed to burn as if stoked by an invisible fire.

Silas Whitmor. His presence dropped over the casino like a shadow, commanding attention without moving. Every guard froze, uncertainty flashing in their eyes. The air grew thick with tension, the subtle metallic tang of wolf energy prickling my senses.
