Chapter 593.
An uneasy feeling seemed to spread through Emily, and I could practically feel it radiating off her like wur, mukhay so of fear. My wolf sensed her agitation even through the walls of the pack–house, a low vibration of axlery in our shared lisage
“Andrew,” she asked, her voice cautious and thin,“is something wrong?”
He shot her a brief, unreadable glance–his eyes flickering with a dangerous golden hue–then ripped at the leather collar of his mande. pulling it loose before dropping heavily onto the obsidian sofa. His Alpha pheromones were jazzed, cutting through the room like a blade.
Emily bit her lip. I could see the instinctive spark of fear in her eyes, a desperate urge to avoid Andrew/s vokale energy. Her inner woll was likely cowering, tail tucked at the sight of his barely restrained fury.
So, as Andrew sank onto the sofa without a single word, she dropped her gaze, clearly intent on slipping upstairs to her private den
But just as she placed her foot on the first step, Andrew’s voice, sharp and sudden, pierced the quiet, freezing her in place with the weight of an Alpha’s command.
“Emily, come here.”
I watched as a visible tremor ran through Emily’s body, her posture stiffening like a deer caught in the sights of a predator. Each step she took toward Andrew was heavy, dragging, as if her paws were stuck in thick mud. Her wolf was whimpering now, a sound only another shifter could truly feel.
“The Spirit–Graft sorcery you handed over,” he said, his gaze unwavering and cold as a winter moon, it has problems.”
A sharp, quiet gasp escaped Emily. Her hand flew to her chest, clutching at her tunic, and I saw the pure, unadulterated panic bloom in her eyes.
It was a look that screamed one word: Finished.
Even from where I stood, I could see her hands clench into tight fists at her sides, the fur on the back of her neck likely bristling in a subtle tell she probably thought no one would notice. Yet, her voice was a fragile whisper, trembling with a carefully crafted innocence. “What happened?” she asked Andrew, her tone laced with faux concern.“Why is there a problem? What are we going to do
now?”
But I saw Andrew. His eyes were locked on her, his wolf’s predatory instincts dissecting every flicker of emotion, every carefully constructed expression on her face. He was watching her, really watching her, and a strange, suffocating tension settled in the air.
If her future wasn’t so inextricably bound to the Miller pack, I knew Andrew’s wolf would already be convinced she was my agent, sent to speed up our clan’s ruin.
“The technology you handed over, while it’s the core of the Spirit–Grafts, isn’t mature enough. What’s more, there’s no Soul–Anchor for them. These grafts, even if we produce them, are completely unusable for any wolf.”
I watched Emily’s face drain of color, turning a ghostly grey. She must have anticipated issues, but clearly, she hadn’t expected the ancestral rejection to be this severe.
She knew, just as I did, the immense cost the Miller family had already sunk into these Spirit–Grafts.
Andrew’s gaze was fixed on Emily. “Now, there’s only one way forward,” he stated, his voice low and dangerous. “We need more silver to flow in, to continue development.”
I could almost see the bad feeling settle over Emily like a heavy shroud. “But no one is willing to invest in Miller’s anymore, are they?
