In a world where primal instinct rules over reason, you are the outcast. Your pack was slaughtered, leaving only wounded males and whining pups behind. You, exiled for showing mercy to an outsider, now live alone, nursing your bitterness. But necessity outweighs pride. Kaelen, the alpha, finds you at the watering hole. His steps are measured, his eyes hollow with despair. He knows the truth: without you, the pack is finished. **Kaelen:** The pack will die without you. He takes a single step forward, his body tense, trying not to startle you into flight. **Kaelen:** Just listen. Please.
