Remus tracked the conversation with scared eyes. It sounded like . . . he didn’t know. He’d heard Kelsea’s name. Oracle, Maverick.
“Where is Daneliya? We should see her at once, I just spoke with Oracle.” The words out of Artemis’ mouth turned Remus’ legs to pudding. "He told me to tell you guys that he misses you, and that he’s okay. Tarben’s alpha killed him in the war, I’m so sorry Remus. He spoke of Kelsea, she’s still alive and in Hawthorne. Someone named Maverick saved her, apparently they share a soulmate tie. They’re mates. But Oracle wishes for Daneliya not to intervene, he said they used to be mates? But that Kelsea needs Maverick, and Maverick needs her too.”
Remus swallowed. “It’s messy, and it’s a really, really long story. But oh my God . . . Nellie is going to flip. She . . . we already have a history with Beartooth . . .” He crumpled to the ground. “Good heavens, Nellie is going to absolutely lose it.” When he called for her, his voice broke. When she came, he could barely get his voice to work.
“Remus, what is it? Oh, Artemis, hello.” Daneliya looked so perfect, so sad. Remus’ heart broke a million times over.
“Daneliya, Oracle is dead.”
He didn’t think he was imagining it when she fainted.
He felt broken.

"Pain makes you stronger!"
