Selene's POV~~
The howl cut through the forest like a blade. It was deep, fierce, and laced with something that made the hairs rise along my arms. It was filled with rage and madness. And something colder… something that sank beneath my skin like ice water.
I knew that howl.
I didn't know how...didn't know how my body seemed to react, how my pulse jumped at the sound, or how my lungs forgot to breathe, but I knew.
It was him, Aeron.
I could feel it in the marrow of my bones. That sound came from his throat. I staggered back a step, my legs trembling beneath me. Why was he so angry when he could not bear to look at me for even a second?
Then came the second howl. It was even sharper and wounded with fury, Luca.
A moment later, a third one rang out, like something uncoiling in the dark. That was Kael. I remembered that sound from the times I'd been locked in the moving wagon and heard it drifting in on cold air.
Then came the last.
