Chapter 36: The Prophecy Unveiled.
**Arin's POV**
We were directly in the path of the shadow army. I took hold of Kael's hand and felt our connection combine our fear. Rowan was whispering something that caused the air to shimmer, and Jaxon was already changing into his wolf form.
As I watched hundreds of shadow creatures emerge from the forest, I sid, "We can't fight all of them."
"We have to try," Kael said, but he sounded afraid.
Elder Mava suddenly materialized in front of us, seemingly out of nowhere. "Foolish children," she yelled. "Come along with me. Now."
I began, "But Malik—"
Elder Mava concluded, "Will kill you if you stay here. The shadow moon is still not up. You still have time."
With unexpected strength, she took hold of my arm and pulled me in the direction of the back door. Jaxon barely made it back to human form before the triplets followed.
"Where are we going?" I inquired as we dashed through the pack house's dim hallways.
