Chapter 31
Turning back, she walked out of the gym without another glance. I resisted the urge to groan. Isaac getting on edge can only mean it’s nothing good. The guy had b alls made of steel. He hardly ever let anything get to him. He was as emotionless as a rock when he was in his Gamma mode.
Isaac.
My Gamma.
Bentley’s son.
The first thing I did after agreeing to take up Meredith’s offer was find him. He was training for his Gamma position, so I knew where he was. He was where everyone went to training. I wondered if the news of Duskfall’s demise had gotten to him. My heart bled for the man I didn’t know but felt related to. I couldn’t even begin to imagine the kind of shock and trauma he’d go through.
I dropped everything on spot to go there. Meredith had encouraged me, personally bringing me there to tie up loose ends before beginning the next chapter of my life. When I arrived at the training grounds, his mentors had said that the news did reach him, but he wasn’t taking it well. He’d sh ut himself in his room for days, not bothering to come out. The mentor’s couldn’t force him out either so they left food for him outside the door.
Anytime they came back to check, the plate would be gone.

The female sanction was in another building miles away.
We walked on for a few minutes in silence. His mentor was built up with muscles clearly defined from his thin shirt. A big man who had fought many battles and won many battles from the tattoos riddling his biceps. A warrior at his prime. We stopped in front of a door near the end of the hall. The mentor look at me, eyes a little wary before nodding to the
room.
“This is it.”
He said roughly. He folded his arms across his chest and sighed heavily. His hard eyes darted to search my face and from the moment it connected, I knew he was having second thoughts about allowing me to see him.
He was worried about Isaac. Almost every trainer was. This was the first time it happened. A lone man training only to hear that his entire pack was wiped out– Alpha and Luna

included. For him, no one could ever understand his pain. He was alone. No family, no pack to return to. All his training to be a Gamma gone to waste because how could he be a Gamma to a pack that no longer existed? He lost everything. His family, friends, pack,
purpose.
And the worst part was that he was training in order to be able to protect his pack, yet he wasn’t there when they needed him.
He was, in a way, a rogue.
“I have to warn ya, doll face… Isaac hasn’t been very”
He made a face. His eyebrows knit together and his lips pulled back in a line,
