The clubhouse remained silent.<\/p>\n

No one dared speak.<\/p>\n

Then\u2014<\/p>\n

the oldest biker slowly walked to the wall.<\/p>\n

He removed a faded leather vest.<\/p>\n

Its wolf patch was slashed down the middle.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe wore this the night he disappeared.\u201d<\/p>\n

The little girl stared at it.<\/p>\n

Her hands trembling.<\/p>\n

Then she unfolded her father’s letter.<\/p>\n

A small photograph slipped onto the floor.<\/p>\n

The club president picked it up.<\/p>\n

His face turned pale.<\/p>\n

Standing beside the founder…<\/p>\n

was another biker.<\/p>\n

Wearing the same torn vest.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat can’t be…\u201d<\/p>\n

he whispered.<\/p>\n

The old biker closed his eyes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt wasn’t an outsider.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was one of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The little girl looked around the room.<\/p>\n

Her voice steady despite the tears.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy father didn’t send me here for revenge.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe sent me here for the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

One by one\u2014<\/p>\n

the bikers removed their patches and laid them on the table.<\/p>\n

Because before they could honor the Wolves again\u2014<\/p>\n

they had to uncover the wolf who had betrayed them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
