Chapter 22 : Breakfast

*Morgan*

Before we even exit the kitchen, Serena comes down the stairs and stops us. She is wearing the same anxious look as Shane.

“The elders have pushed the meeting by an hour,” Serena tells us.

“Damn it!” Shane exclaims. “Do you know why?”

“Reginald said he isn’t ready yet. He said he has to prepare,” Serena explains, rolling her eyes.

“What does that even mean? We can’t waste any more time!” Shane says angrily.

I wonder what Reginald has to ‘prepare’. My mind automatically goes to the night of the full moon. When Reginald told me about the black magic the pack does, is that what he’s doing now? Is he performing black magic in the basement right now? Does a shifter even have the ability to do that? Or was the elder lying to me about that?

“We will see about this,” Shane says as he leaves the room.

Serena and I stare awkwardly at each other. I’m not sure what to say to her.
