CELEBRATION

XADEN'S POV

There was loud cheering in the hall as they celebrated his victory over the Moonlight Pack. 

It was a massive feast for the entire pack, and they all danced and rejoiced. 

For Xaden, he wasn't satisfied. 

He had killed Abel, and it had given him joy to see him the way he had died, given him joy to see his parents hearts break. 

Although he knew that it was possible that they would set up imposters to hide his children, Xaden had sniffed their bloodlines and was 100 percent sure they were children of Bale. 

It wasn't enough.

He hated the Wolf Council and their stupid rules. 

He knew that they were in some way partial to Bale. He didn't want anything to ruin his plans to finally murder Bale.

The thought of Bale escaping once again within one year of the new moon annoyed him.

He stalked off from the celebration and headed out to one of the massive balconies that oversaw his entire pack.
