By the time I heard Aubrey had led the team out, it was already the next evening. Rain drizzled steadily outside the window. A cold wind slipped through the open frame, making it rattle and creak.
I looked outside, then down at my hand. The skin on the back of it was ghostly pale. A bitter laugh escaped my lips.
“Xavier, I’m useless now, aren’t I?”
He flinched. After a pause, he spoke cautiously. “Alpha… you’ll recover. You’re still the strongest alpha werewolf we have. Even while sick, you’ve kept the Shadowmoon Pack running flawlessly. No one leads like you.”
I let out a quiet scoff. “The strongest alpha? Then why can’t I even protect the woman I love? Why does she have to take risks for me?”
Xavier lowered his head and stayed silent.
But all I could think about were the things Aubrey said before she left. She said I looked down on her for being an omega. She said I didn’t really believe in her. But she was wrong.
It was because I saw her as an omega that I needed to protect her more. I didn’t want her getting hurt because of me.
As an alpha, it’s my job to take the hits. Not hers.
I wasn’t wrong. She just didn’t understand. But that was fine. I’d protect her in my own way.
“Get ready. I’m going to the Flame Pack myself.” That was where Ulrich had done most of the poisoning.
I waved Xavier away. He didn’t move, I frowned and was about to snap at him when my phone
rang.
Aubrey.
I stared at the screen. My lips pressed together. After a long moment, I answered.
“Awake?”
Her voice came through light and smug, like sneaking off behind my back was some kind of accomplishment.

She didn’t wait for me to speak. “Hey, Alpha Henry. I called to explain why I left so suddenly. Honestly, I’d been thinking about it, but I didn’t plan to act so fast. I just launched a new project at the university. Do you know how much this detour is costing me?”
“Then why the hell did you go!” My voice snapped. Xavier immediately left the room.
I couldn’t hold back anymore. “Get back here. Now.”
“Alpha, I’m calling you as a courtesy. You’re seriously not going to listen?”
“I don’t want to hear it.”
“You’ll regret that. Are you sure?”
“Unless you come back to the Shadowmoon Pack right now, I don’t want to hear a single word.”
“Well, where I’m headed, there’s no signal tower. I left in a hurry, didn’t bring a satellite phone. If you don’t listen now, you probably won’t get another chance.”
My heart tightened, but I barked back, “Perry’s with you. He wouldn’t leave without a satellite phone.”
She sighed. “So you really don’t want to hear it. Okay. Bye.”
“Wait!” My blood boiled. She was really going to hang up without saying a single soft word? Did she really think I couldn’t follow her to the Flame Pack? She was seriously underestimating me.
On the other end, she chuckled. “What, changed your mind?”
I stayed silent.
“No answer? I’m hanging up.”
“Aubrey-“I growled her name through clenched teeth. She was my nemesis. The woman I loved to the bone. The woman I hated to the bone.
But I didn’t want anything to happen to her because of me.
I fought down the fury clawing at my chest.
“Aubrey, come back. I’d rather die than let you take this risk.”
If I’d been willing to let her walk into danger, I never would’ve given up the antibody to save her in the first place.
