What happened in the southwest sector of the village spread like wildfire and led to a widespread panic that rippled throughout Sheunta Village and beyond. Our PR team was working overtime trying to calm the rumors, which weren’t so much as rumors, but actual facts being thrown around.

Everyone was afraid and I couldn’t blame them, nor protect them from this enemy that was far more dangerous than anything we’d ever encountered before. He’d proven that he could manipulate our minds and control our bodily functions. What else could the demonic bastard do?

With a water bottle in hand and my guards in tow, I walked toward the throne room where the Summits were waiting for me. An emergency meeting had been called due to the unfolding situation.

The doors opened and I entered. Everyone rose and remained standing until I was seated at the throne. I took a few gulps of water from my bottle and handed it to Liam before greeting them. “Thank you for meeting me on such short notice, and under these dire circumstances.”

Ever the Summits’ well-oiled spokesman, Lucas was the first to speak. “We hope you’re feeling better, Your Majesty.”

The last time we were assembled in this room, I’d passed out after a rather heated argument with them. “I am, but unfortunately this situation doesn’t make me feel good.” I frowned. “We lost many of our people last night in a senseless act of terror. Our enemy is someone far more heinous than we could have imagined.”

“In your report, it shows you met with him,” Grayson said. “Why would you risk such a thing?”

“Because he threatened to enter the village if I didn’t,” I sighed. “Which in hindsight seems pointless, because he did anyway.”

“Why would he want to meet you?” Charles asked tauntingly. “What’s so special about you?”

I smirked, refusing to let the alpha goad me. “What’s not special about me, Charles? I am Mackenzie Grey, after all.” I shrugged arrogantly. “Freedom Princess, Curse Breaker, and now Queen of the Lycan. I am many things, Charles; what are you?”

I knew I was too arrogant for my own good and one day it would bite me in the ass, but for now, it was pissing Charles the fuck off and giving me a much-needed ego boost.

“Maybe you should go back to New York,” I suggested. “You don’t seem to bring anything valuable to the table. All problems and no solutions.”

His nostrils flared and his hands fisted from restrained rage. If I poked the bear just a little more …

Grayson cleared his throat, redirecting the conversation. “How do we defeat this enemy? He seems invincible.”

I snorted and looked down at my hands. I once thought myself to be invincible, but I was very, very wrong. No one was invincible. That was a lesson I learned the hard way. I had the scars to prove it.

“No one is invincible, Grayson.” I looked back up at the members of each summit. “It might seem like it right now, but there has to be a way.
