Before the Fall (Slate/Gray Book #1)
Epilogue

Present day, north Washington Wilderness…

Charles Rene Jackson III feels no shame in his abandonment of the “plan”. Silas was volatile. He thought he understood patience, but he didn’t. At the end, when he could feel them getting close, he lost the battle before he started. He let the madness get to him. He’d spend ten years in exile from his pack with flimsy relationships with his acolytes to depend on for sanity. It was a disaster waiting to happen.

But not Charles...no, not Charles. His pack won’t disown him for taking a risk, for being too “violent” as Silas claimed his pack called him. His pack is stronger, better. They know what it means to be werewolves. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
