Chapter 269 - Too bad for all of us, Seraphine’s still breathing

Damon stood in the middle of the pack house training ground, the low hum of tired wolves still hanging in the air. The centenary pack never really slept easy after a storm like what happened a few hours ago.

"We pick this back up at four in the morning," he told them, voice steady. "Keep going till Seraphine’s confirmed gone for good."

He rubbed the back of his neck, already thinking about crashing into his bed. The moment he got the chance to do so, his phone lit up. Seraphine’s name flashed across the screen.

He answered fast, listened close to every word she gave him, then hung up. The second he stepped out of his room, he nearly collided with Ravyn slipping out of Bryan’s door down the hall.

Ravyn froze for a split second, eyes narrowing just a touch. Damon forced an easy grin and shrugged like it was no big deal. "Heading out for patrol too? We could run it together."

He was fishing, testing the waters, mind already turning toward how he could corner Raul without raising too many flags.

Ravyn opened his mouth to answer when Daisy came around the corner looking like death warmed over. Sweat slicked her forehead, her skin pale and clammy. She swayed a little on her feet, one hand pressed against the wall to steady herself.

"You head out with the other warriors," Ravyn told Damon, his voice heavy with worry. "If something big comes up, just reach me through the mindlink."

Damon gave a quick nod, watching as Ravyn carried Daisy to his room. Damon turned and headed out fast, grabbing his keys and sliding into his truck.

The drive across pack territory didn’t take long. Teddy’s place sat tucked back like most of the regular wolves’ homes, a squat two-bedroom bunker half-buried in the hillside, practical and tough against anything the woods might throw at them.

He killed the engine, walked up, and twisted the knob. The door swung open without a fight.

Right away, heavy breathing and soft, needy moans drifted out from the living room. Damon’s jaw tightened. "Raul," he called out, loud enough to cut through the sounds.

Raul jerked back from the omega bent over the sofa, eyes flying wide. The girl whipped her head around, fear flashing across her face the second she saw who stood in the doorway. "Beta Damon!"

"Get out," Damon said flatly.
