Kael's POV.
My heart stopped when I heard that voice call me "Brother." My body froze, my wolf Zeus going quiet, like he sensed trouble.
I turned slowly, my boots scraping the stone floor of the Fang Pack's courtyard, and my breath caught.
There she was—Seraphina, my foster sister, standing there with a small bag slung over her shoulder, her blonde hair catching the torchlight, her smile too bright, too familiar.
My chest tightened, a mix of shock and unease hitting me like a punch. What was she doing here, in the Fang Pack, so far from home?
I walked toward her, my steps heavy, my eyes narrowing. "Seraphina," I said, my voice low, sharp.
"What are you doing in this pack?" My hands clenched at my sides, my mind racing. She shouldn't be here.
Not now, not when everything was already a mess with Aria, Nicholas, and the deal falling apart.
