CHAPTER 68

  After days of being stuck in a cage, Liam was finally sane enough to be released from confinement. He hid the internal turmoil, rocking his mind pretty well. He needed to because that was the only way he could find Nicole.

  His determination didn't do anything to erase the anguish, anger, and heartbreak he felt. He fought against the overwhelming rage, desperately seeking clarity amidst the chaos that consumed him.

  His mind felt like it was engulfed in flames, the torment of not knowing where his mate Nicole was, tearing him apart. As he entered the council meeting, he tried to compose himself, unwilling to succumb completely to the anger that threatened to consume him.

  Liam took his seat at the head of the table, his expression a mask of controlled turmoil. The council members, sensing the weight of his emotions, exchanged concerned glances, aware of the immense burden he carried.
