"…a war between continents."
For a moment, I couldn't breathe. Shock struck me harder than any blow. My mind spun, unable to grasp the weight of what he had just revealed.
A war between continents? Thoughts stirred up my mind.
When I finally snapped back into myself, my first thought was defensive, calculating.
Our continent was large. We had many packs, we had strong wolves. Even without the Celestial Wolf's intervention, surely we wouldn't be at a disadvantage… right?
But one look at Rion told me otherwise. His face was grim, carved with shadows, as though he were staring at the ruin of a world only he had glimpsed.
This wasn't some border skirmish or an Alpha's posturing for dominance. Whatever this was, it wasn't ordinary.
He must have read the doubt flashing across my expression, because his voice cut through my thoughts.
