The conference room was quiet now.

Everyone had said what they needed to. We’d gone over the reports, discussed the situation at the border, the last known movement of the rogue wolves and any new threats rising against us.

After The Order was disbanded, life had returned to normal.

I took a breath and looked around the table. Every chair was full—my wolves, the ones I trusted most. The Hounds sat close together, Aaron and Sheila holding hands under the table. Ajax leaned back with his arms crossed. Warner was focused, like always.

It felt like victory.

Lia and I had finally moved into the pack house together. The rooms were hers now too. Her scent lingered on the sheets, on my shirts, in the hallway. She belonged here—not just in this building, but in this life. And now, I was about to make it official. She would soon take up her responsibilities as Luna of the pack.

My Luna.

She’d be included in pack meetings, she would have a say in every important decision, she would be able to choose who to

attack, who to kill, and who to save.

Truth was, I’d mistrusted her once.

Now I would fix it by placing all my faith in her.

I still remembered when she was just another human girl in school—sitting next to Christy, quiet in class, stubborn in the weirdest ways. If anyone had told me back then that she would be the centre of my future, that she’d grow into something almost divine, I’d have laughed. But here we were. She was stronger than any of us. She’d bled for us, pushed herself for us, and stood tall when we all fell. It was time they saw her the way I did.

I opened my mouth to speak—then froze.

A wave of panic slammed into me. Sharp, cold, urgent. My hands clenched the edge of the table.

That wasn’t mine. That wasn’t my fear.

It had to be Lia’s.

The moment I realised it, I heard her shouting desperately. “Zane!”

Without missing a beat, all of us were moving. I shoved the

chair back and ran. The Hounds followed without a word, shoes thudding against the floor. I threw the door open just in time for

Her whole body trembled. Her heart raced against my chest, breaths quick and shallow. She looked up at me with wide, terrified eyes.

“Everything’s going wrong,” she choked out. “Blake—he called me. Zane, he said Sean, a member of The Order is dead. Slit his own throat. Same with another. They were both trying to hurt something—Sean had a kitchen knife, he was just trying to kill a lobster, Zane. He was cooking dinner for his wife. And he died.”

I stared at her, brain stalling for a second. “What?”

“It’s me,” she cried. “It’s what I said when The Order attacked, when they killed you. I told them they couldn’t raise a weapon against anything alive. I thought I was stopping them from murder—but it’s worse. It’s like… it’s like a curse. Anyone who tries, just–”

She dragged her hand across her neck.

Shit.

They couldn’t fight, they couldn’t hunt, they couldn’t cook. If they so much as swatted a mosquito—would they die?

“I knew it,” Warner said, stepping forward. I glanced at him, but he was looking at Lia. “I saw the first guy you’re talking about. He died in the forest by slitting his throat against a tree branch.

I thought he looked familiar, but I wasn’t certain. Now I know who he was.”

I took a slow breath, trying to keep my voice calm. “Is it just two people?”

“No,” Lia said, eyes darting to the Hounds, to the others

gathering behind us. “We only know about two, but what if more are already dead? What if someone just tried to kill a bug and dropped dead? Zane, we have to stop everything. You have to pull back every other mission. Every single one. We need to find the rest of them—now.”

She was barely standing, shaking so hard it hurt to watch. I grabbed her hands and held them tight.

“They’ll die if they even think about hurting something. What if someone accidentally picks up a knife the wrong way? What if someone is being attacked and they merely try to defend themselves? Or their children? No one would even understand what happened. And we don’t know how many are left, where they are, who they’re with–”

“I know,” I said quickly. “I know, Lia.”

I looked behind her. Ajax’s face was pale. Sheila had covered her mouth. Aaron looked sick.

This was bad.
