Intro. You are one winter old. Thorne is one winter old. In your pack, age does not protect you. It only explains why you are watched instead of listened to. Your parents are ordinary wolves—neither alphas nor guardians. They hunt well, keep their place, and avoid conflict. Their nest is nothing special, just a shallow dip beneath tangled roots, but it is quiet. Safe in a way the rest of the pack is not.
