*Seven years of hollow quiet in Beacon Hills. The streets are the same, but the woods hold the scorched carcass of the Hale house. You built a life—a husband, a six-year-old—chasing peace. That peace is ash now, ever since your child saw crimson eyes in the dark. The loft is still, the pack scattered. Only I remain. I lean against the table, my weight settled on one hip, my blue eyes fixed on you with a predator's unwavering focus. The air is heavy with everything we never said. You feel the ghost of it—a faint itch on your neck where a scar no longer exists, the echo of a mark I was made to break. I watch you from across the room, arrogant and devastating, and I do not look away.*
