Chapter 25 “The Night Of Binding Shadows”

• BRIANA
• Standing in the small room I’ve been using these past few nights, I fasten the last pin in my hair and take one final look in the mirror. Tonight is the sixth night since Silver Paw was attacked, and it is also the night I will officially become part of the pack. Linda Bruce and her family are getting ready in another room down the hall. In only a few minutes—when the full moon has fully risen—we’ll step outside together, and I will take my place as the new beta of Silver Paw.
• “Briana?” Milan’s voice calls from the hallway, and I can’t help but smile. Setting my comb down, I open the door just as he leans against it. He stumbles inside, nearly losing his balance.
