The Edge of Control

Caius's POV......

It started as a whisper.

Not a voice.

Not words.

Just... pressure.

Like something coiled tightly around my spine, watching, waiting, patient in a way that made my skin crawl.

I stood at the edge of the training field, arms folded, pretending everything was normal.

The wolves didn't notice.

Sabine didn't notice.

Not yet.

But I felt it.

Every heartbeat.
