Gavin's POV

Spencer's grandmother was dead.

The rogues had killed her.

I pulled my gun out so I could be armed while I escorted Lucy back to the packhouse unharmed. Thankfully, the packhouse wasn't too far away. However, the damage happening around the pack was escalating at a fast rate. There were bombs being ignited, destroying homes and buildings. Lives were being lost all around me, and the most I could do was shoot my weapon a couple of times. I needed to get Lucy to safety, but above anything else, I needed to find Judy.

A woman covered in blood and burn marks ran to me with tears in her eyes. She grabbed at my foot, begging me to help her. Before I could react, a rogue attacked her, knocking her off balance. The wolf sank his big teeth into her fragile neck, and she screamed out in agony.

Lucy reached out to help her, but I grabbed her arm, pulling her away, and then I shot the woman in the head, aiming to end her pain. Then, I shot the rogue. Lucy gasped, her hands flying to her mouth and tears spilling down her cheeks. I grabbed her arm, pulling her along with me. I shot whatever rogues lunged at me, but for the most part, they were preoccupied terrorizing the other packmates and destroying anything they came into contact with. I shuddered as I watched the pack fall; the rogues laughing like hyenas, making me recoil and bile rise in my throat.

We reached the packhouse just as Sampson was leaving with a group of his Gammas. When his eyes fell on Lucy, relief washed over him. He ran to her, wrapping her in his arms and kissing her face like he was afraid he'd never see her again.
