Chapter 57

• The meeting had just concluded, and I watched as the Alpha of the Crimson Claw pack inclined his head respectfully. It was the third pack I had visited, and just like the others, this one had gone smoothly. Almost too smoothly. They all seemed eager to strengthen ties. It was surprising, considering that I was expecting a lot of resistance.
• Anyone monitoring my movement would think that I was going after the Crest, even though I was here under a different guise. Golden Crest was almost impenetrable but we also found strength in our allies. We also didn't go for the loudest packs, we went for the ones with values similar to ours. Coincidentally, these packs almost always had some sort of history with the Crest, making them everyone's Target.
