Chapter 99. To All of You

In the sterile confines of the pack hospital, Matthew lay motionless on the bed, his once vibrant form now pale and frail. Kelly was inconsolable, her anguished sobs filling the room as she clung to her dying son’s hand. The scent of despair and grief hung heavy in the air, a suffocating reminder of the tragedy that had unfolded.

Jack stood by the bedside, his fists clenched in impotent rage. His eyes bore into Ethan demanding answers. “How could this happen? How could someone kill a werewolf’s wolf without an Elder’s involvement?”

Ethan’s expression mirrored the gravity of the situation as he explained, “It should be impossible, Alpha Jack. No one but the Elders should possess the knowledge or the power to do this.”

“Then, Elder Richard did this!” Kelly said hysterically.

“No, that is impossible. All the Elders are accounted for. Elder Richard would not have been able to do this. Whoever did this must have been taught how to do this,” Ethan explained.
