CHAPTER 99

　　Caleb had been kept away from the pack by his need for a thrill and something new for many years. He had been away from the pack for what felt like an eternity, lost in the allure of distant horizons.

　　That was how he met Sophia. He'd been lost somewhere in a Rogue pack. She'd saved him from death that day, and he had rescued her from the pack subsequently.

　　Upon his return to Redwood, he was met with a heartbreaking and utterly devastating scene. The once-thriving pack lay in ruins, his parents were gone, his brother not entirely human, half of the pack dead while the other half lay well in death's door with the states they were in.

　　Caleb's thoughts drifted back to that cursed day, forever seared into his memories. He had returned to Redwood, partly because he missed his family and because he'd found his mate and had been excited to show her off, also to celebrate his brother Cedric, who, he'd gotten word of becoming the new Alpha.
