He shook his head. “My father saw it, and the coroner reported him dead. There’s no way. This can’t be from him.” Like he wasn’t completely certain, he added, “Dead men don’t send letters.”
I snatched the envelope from Ty and reached inside, pulling out another sheet of paper. My stomach clenched as I stared at the coroner’s report along with a receipt for a transaction. Someone had written a small note at the bottom of the receipt.
It’s amazing the things money can buy nowadays.
Ty took the papers from my hands as I covered my mouth to keep from screaming.
No. It couldn’t be.
Ty was on the phone immediately, barking orders. “Bring the coroner to me. Now!”
It was useless. Ten minutes later, Ty got the call saying that his men had found the coroner’s house empty, completely cleaned out except for a simple note that read:I’msorry.
My knees gave out, and I slumped onto the floor as Ty let out an angry howl.
This wasn’t over. The nightmare hadn’t ended.
Castro Neal was still alive.

TY
“Idon’t care how long it takes. Find that motherfucker.”
I sat in the chair across from my father’s mahogany desk and watched the protruding vein in his neck pulse like it always did when he was beyond the point of being reasoned with. Years of experience had taught me to stand back and let him fulfill his alpha duties without getting in the way when he was this upset.
When I was seventeen, Dad had discovered a few members of our pack had been involved in a series of robberies. I’d spent many long afternoons hanging out in his office, like an intern who wanted to gain a better understanding of their future career. I knew the signs of his ire—could probably recognize them before they ever happened.
He’d been so pissed that he couldn’t trust his own pack members to know that if they were in trouble, they could come directly to him. If they needed money, they could tell him. He’d agonized over their desperation and their audacity to steal from their fellow shifters. When he’d instructed his team how to handle the situation, I’d seen his jugular vein pop out for the first time.
As a teenager still trying to get a handle on my own wolf instincts, I hadn’t dared to voice my opinion. Rather, I’d stayed quiet and tried to learn from the way Dad had handled things. Plus, if I was being honest, I’d always been intimidated by him not only because he was my father, but because he was also my alpha.
Back then, I hadn’t yet finished growing, and Dad had towered over me. Also, his alpha dominance radiated from him like the full moon that guided our instincts.
My father was a proud alpha who believed in always taking care of the pack members, no matter the situation. His authority and fairness were legendary, and traits all pack members respected, even when they disagreed with him. I’d soaked up all the knowledge I could glean from him. He’d led by example, and I wanted to be exactly like him.
I’d kept my mouth shut because I’d known I had nothing of value to add to the situation. Plus, I was just a kid then, and no matter how tempting it had been, I’d had little to no life experience, so I was hardly in a position to puff out my chest and try to prove myself as the upcoming alpha.
This time, though, everything was different. I was no longer the teenager who had no clue how to be a leader. Even more, I wasn’t single anymore, and I had to think about more than my own well-being.
