I was stunned. He was right, I didn’t even realize that he was there. I was so focused on getting Sloan to either come back to the Golden Moon pack, or to die, that I only saw Gabi, Tanner, Sloan, and Dawson there. Now that he mentions it, there were a lot of people at the gate before I allowed our men to fire on them. I feel a little sick that I could have killed my own son. My wolf, Janine, pipes up in a mindlink, “He was there but you were out of control. I did try to tell you, and you wouldn’t listen to me.” Hearing her voice makes me sob. I had lost her on Sloan’s tenth birthday. I had not been able to speak to her, or phase into my wolf ever since. She didn’t agree with what I was doing and told me if I acted on it, that I would lose her. I didn’t think that she was telling the truth
