Chapter 71

“You need to see this for yourself, Alpha. She left a message in blood. It’s for you.”

Blood? That crazy girl had finally lost her mind.

I stood up slowly from the table, trying not to break the peaceful atmosphere of the dinner. Behind me, the sound of laughter continued as my family acted as if the world were safe.

I felt Emily’s eyes on me. She followed my every move, her expression tight with worry. She could feel the sudden shift in my emotions—our bond was growing, and soon she would feel everything.

I walked outside. The warmth of the house already felt miles away. I knew that Tessa’s escape was only the beginning. Emily would be terrified when she found out that the most dangerous woman we had ever caught was loose again, already planning her next move.

When I arrived at the cells, I wasn't just surprised—I was livid. It was happening all over again. It felt like the night with the witch. Once again, my people were dead.
