The two causes of the change

Something had changed in Mayford. And, apparently, the only two people who couldn't see it were the first cause of their change - their Alpha - and the second cause of it - Samantha.

Was it an Alpha thing?

Oh, but Samantha was... a female? A stranger and someone they hadn't met until that day. She also came from Norwich, which should have made them frown but didn't.

On the other hand, she was Renato's mate. And Renato fought for them until he almost died. They could risk trusting her. She might not care about them, but she wouldn't hurt her soulmate without a valid reason, right?

While most of the wolves were confused by their own thoughts, Renato stood there in silence and released Samantha's shoulder. Not that he could stop her, either way.
