Chapter 44: Cellphone

Tristan

I awoke in the middle of the night, my heart racing and the rest of my senses going crazy. Something felt off, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to happen--and for the first time in over a month, I had a feeling that Baltazar would be behind it.

I tried for the sake of Emily and my pack to forget about him, even though he killed Gawain in cold blood, and I swore revenge. But things changed; Emily and I got married and now, she was pregnant. I couldn’t simply take my pack and go after them. Most of my pack had mates of their own, with a few of the women expecting children themselves. I had to be smart about this if what I feared was true. I had to think logically and strategically. I had to think like a tactician and not go headlong into it like a hungry wolf.
