Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Chapter 58

Bronx’s POV

I find the fire chief in front of the packhouse, “Chief Prost, any idea what happened here?”

“Well, we have to investigate further, but it looks like arson. The areas that were damaged the most are way too isolated for it to have been faulty wiring or a candle. As soon as we have more info, I will let you know, Alpha.” 6

“Thank you, Sir,” I pat him on the shoulder and move on.

Reggie and I go around checking on everyone still milling around. Most people are scared but not hurt. A few people have minor burns. We send them t o the medical tent so Kas and the doctors can heal them. I look over to see Milo and Lenora sitting on the back ledge of a fire truck, they are giving Lenora oxygen to b e on the safe side. Whatever Kas did to heal Milo seems to have done the trick because he isn’t even coughing like everyone else. Oled so fast but now I know, this was it. That vision was what happened tonight,” Kas shivers as tears start to run down her face. The sun is starting to rise behind the packhouse. It looks eerily beautiful.

“Bronx, what’s the point of having the gift of premonition if I can’t stop bad things from happening,” she says with a choked breath.

“Aww, Baby. Hey, you can’t blame yourself. No one died, no one was seriously injured,” I put her down and use my fingertips to lift her chin towards me, “Once James is feeling better, talk to Delilah. If you feel like you need to go back to the coven for a bit to work on it, then that’s what you have to do. Whatever you think is best. Alright?”

“How about, if I have another vision, then I will. There’s nothing I can do until then.”

“Fair enough, Baby, Promise me you won’t keep it a secret if it happens again though.”

“I promise,” she swears to me. I put my arm around her as we walk down the road to the much smaller packhouse.

The fire chief’s investigation shows accelerants placed strategically in the hallways near electrical outlets are what fueled the fire. By the time he provides his report, we already know who the offenders are. Our security footage from the packhouse hallways are saved to MasonCo servers. They show four of our omegas pouring measured amounts of liquids along the walls while the pack was at the solstice party.

I send guards to collect them to be brought in for questioning but none of them ever make it. All four scheduled vacation two weeks prior. They are gone. All of their clothes, personal belongings, all of it gone. It was a carefully planned, calculated effort.

The question is why.
