Bloodmoon's Fallen Alpha
During the full-moon raid carried out by the Bloodmoon Pack, my squad accidentally strayed into a swamp thick with deadly silver mist.
I had prepared for this. I always carried a moonstone that could protect against silver poisoning.
But when I opened my leather pouch, all my fingers touched was a wishing doll woven from dried grass.
I was about to reach out to the Elder Council through the mind link.
That was when my Alpha mate, Jack Fraley, suddenly grabbed my wrist.
"Easy, sweetheart. Don't be impulsive. I gave your moonstone to Lily. She's a fragile Omega. She needs protection more than you do."
I clenched the straw doll, fury burning so hot that it nearly scorched away my reason.
