The woods were enormous, my ears could hear far, farther than they had before, bugs and birds, there voices bouncing off all the trees. Light from a sun, so bright you'd think to look at it would make you blind, shone down into the woods. I looked up at them and as I did, I realized where I was. Like a flood, memories came to me, flashes of me bleeding out on the table, flashes of Lucas's face, his and Doctor Mason's.

I couldn't believe I was gone, that rogue snuck me, I was a fool to look away, a fool to even fight them, I should have packed up and used the tunnels. All these thoughts raced through my head.
And as the thoughts pushed through my mind I felt tears fall, I wouldn't see my mate again, I wouldn't see my son grow to be a full Alpha, or my child be born. I was dead. Upon my realization, I lowered my head, blinking away tears, looking up after blinking the atmosphere changed, I was still in the woodlands, only it was pitch black, a huge moon hung visibly in the inky sky.
I was in a different space, the trees were thin and went straight up, the spaces between them causing a shadow.
