Cedrick Walker never imagined he’d face such a harsh and decisive trial today.

His consciousness was fading, his control over his body slipping away. He was losing the connection with his wolf, locked inside his own existence.

He grabbed the thread of fate linking him to his wolf, and their hearts resonated as one, like a single being.
