/"This isn't how packs work, Luna./" A male voice echoes my way from the left and I turn to see Tom, the sentinel who helped us leave, stand to voice his own opinion. Keeping his eyes downcast to show me respect but his words are clear. /"We protect our Luna in the absence of our Alpha… we stay together, to survive together. That is our nature. Without our Luna, there is no pack. She's the heart that keeps us as one…. look at the mountain and the years we grew apart without one. Our people divided by names and bloodlines until we shunned those we should have sheltered. We lost our way without our heart…./" Tom's voice carries boldly through the suddenly silent room as Sierra stifles a cry behind me and her guilt and regret at what he's saying almost end me. Ebbing my way as her own shredded heart bleeds at abandoning them to Juan's fate and only makes me worse.
