Tonia's POV
I contacted Ryder immediately, and the hunt for Kermit commenced. I remained hidden from view to avoid detection by those who sought my death.
Lucien had been freed by the Executioners and was receiving medical care under his father's supervision.
Every fiber of my being longed to visit him, but I understood such a meeting was impossible.
I provided Ryder and Maximus with Bradley's mansion coordinates. True to his word, when they arrived, he had vanished. His entire crew had disappeared with him.
Their search extended throughout the city. Days passed without progress. The conflict had escalated beyond recognition.
The Packs were tearing each other apart with savage brutality, lacking leadership to restore order. Remarkably, the lower-ranking wolves appeared to be gaining ground, a development that baffled me completely. This civil war had transformed into a vicious battle between the elite and the common wolves.
Violence consumed the population.
