When the call ended, I stared at my phone like I was seeing it for the first time. The screen had gone dark, reflecting at my own confused expression. Something felt... off.
"Alpha?"
I looked up to see Beta Jeremy standing in the doorway of my office, his weathered face creased with concern.
"Is everything alright?" he asked, stepping into the room and closing the door behind him. "You look like you've seen a ghost."
I set my phone down on the desk and rubbed my temples, trying to process what had just happened. "I'm not sure," I admitted. "I just got off the phone with Lycan Leader Ramsey, and something about the conversation felt... strange."
Jeremy moved closer, "Strange how?"
