*~Caspian's POV~*
I was shocked to my very bones when I saw my brother standing there…his body cloaked in darkness, wings still fading, and Hazel by his side, clinging to him as if she could not see the nightmare standing in front of us.
I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. My heart pounded furiously as Hazel broke free from his embrace, and Cayden's eyes finally locked with mine.
"What is this?" I demanded, my voice rough, trembling with disbelief. "Cayden, what is this? How… when…how did you become all of this? Who are you?"
"Caspian…" he muttered, his voice unsteady. "Trust me, I don't know what this is. I don't understand it either."
I scoffed, rage tightening my throat. "You don't know? You just sprouted black wings like a demon horns starting to push through your skull and you expect me to believe you don't know? What kind of power is this? Because it sure as hell isn't the power of a normal wolf!"
