Chapter 3 Awakening Strength

The rogue was massive, its black fur bristling as it snarled. It lunged at the child, its teeth bared, but Sienna intercepted it, throwing herself between them.

Her wolf surged to the surface, and a growl erupted from her throat. She didn't know where the strength came from, but she fought with a ferocity she had never known. Her claws raked across the rogue's side, drawing blood.

The rogue yelped and backed away, momentarily stunned.

Behind her, the child scrambled to safety. Sienna's chest heaved as she faced the rogue again, her wolf taking full control. She didn't hesitate. She leaped forward, her claws sinking into the rogue's throat. With a final, desperate snarl, the rogue collapsed.

Sienna stood over its lifeless body, her hands trembling. She had never killed before. She had never fought before.

The other rogues retreated soon after, chased off by the pack's warriors. The battle was over, but the pack's attention was now on Sienna.

She could feel their eyes on her-staring, judging. Ethan approached her, his expression unreadable.

"You fought well," he said after a long pause. "But why didn't you stay back as ordered?"

Sienna met his gaze, her jaw tightening. "I couldn't just stand by and watch."

For a moment, something flickered in Ethan's eyes. Was it respect? Surprise? She couldn't tell, and he quickly turned away, his commanding demeanor returning.

"Go home," he said curtly. "You've done enough."
