Chapter 89 - A Shield of Emptiness

Lily POV

The thing that looked like Caleb grabbed my arm, and I waited for the burning pain that should have come from touching a Void Walker. Instead, I felt... nothing. Just normal skin touching skin.

"Lily," it said in Caleb's voice, but with that hollow echo underneath. "Why aren't you screaming?"

I stared at the thing wearing my mate's face, confused. According to everything I'd learned about Void Walkers, they caused terrible pain when they touched someone with strong pack ties. But I felt perfectly fine.

"I don't understand," I whispered.

The fake Caleb tilted its head, those empty black eyes studying me. "Neither do we. You should be writhing in pain right now."

More possessed pack members crowded around us. I recognized each face - Aiden, Brock, Luna, even little Sarah from the nursery. All with those same terrible black eyes. All looking at me like I was some kind of puzzle they couldn't solve.
