Nathan:
My mind wouldn’t stop racing. No matter how hard I tried to make sense of it all, something just felt off. The energy in the pack house was wrong.
There were far more people inside than usual. Everywhere I turned, someone was whispering, pacing, or looking on edge. It was chaos, and I hadn’t even taken my shoes off yet.
I’d only been gone for a few hours, attending an urgent meeting with the council in another pack, but I’d made sure to leave Damon in charge. Damon; my beta and my right hand. I trusted him to keep things in order, especially with something so simple.
So why did it feel like everything had spiraled the second I stepped away?
I tried not to jump to conclusions, but frustration was already building in my chest. Damon knew what was expected of him. How hard was it
