Avery walked out of the cave, following the path through the woods leading into the old Dagon’s pack. She did not know what she was going to find there. As long as she was aware of it, she spent a little over a week in a cave system. David was gone. He died while protecting her, although it was supposed to be Kayen’s job. He should have been the one protecting her. David died completely for nothing. “Avery,” Damian called her name from afar. His men informed him about a girl walking through the woods, heading toward his pack. Damian didn’t hesitate a second and wanted to know for sure whether it was Avery. “Dagon is alive.” Avery told him with no delay. She didn’t greet him, nor did she tell him about anything else, but seeing his changed stature, she realized he had taken over the pack.
