I was limping, wet, cold, and near falling down exhausted. The truth was, I didn’t feel very safe, either. His plan to fly us to the hotel had failed miserably and if we didn’t find the place soon we weren’t going to have to worry about a stalker. We were going to be dead from the cold.

I adjusted my backpack and tried to keep my heart rate normal. If I had to stress my heart much longer, I might go into a longer period of tachycardia that I couldn’t break.

I felt him move in next to me and put his arm around my waist. It wasn’t the first time he had done it in the last hour and every time he did, it reminded me I wasn’t alone. He let me lean on him a little bit, which made the next few feet easier.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered, kissing my temple.

He had said that more than once over the last few hours, too. What he didn’t say was why. Sorry for getting me involved in something I shouldn’t be? Probably. All I could do now was keep going and try to find a way out of this mess.

He held my waist to stop me from taking the next step. We were on the edge of a tree line and in front of us was an empty field.

“Do you think this is the field?” he whispered.

I squinted to see through the snowflakes. “I can’t tell. Can you see a hotel?”

“With the snow and the darkness there’s no way to know. I could shine the flashlight, but then we alert anyone looking for us.”

“Did Sebastian give you Marcus’s phone number?”

He shook his head negative and squinted through the snow trying to see anything through the darkness. “I think there’s a building on the other side of the field. I’m trying to figure out how to cross the field without being exposed.”

I put my hands to my mouth and let out a wolf howl that was frighteningly realistic.

His mouth dropped open. I held up my finger for him to be quiet. In seconds, I heard another howl, coming from the other side of the field.

A motor started in the distance and he pulled me deeper into the woods, plastering us up against a tree.

“It’s a snowmobile,” I whispered. “It sounds like the engines from earlier today.”

He nodded, but didn’t answer, just kept the shotgun aimed at the opening to the woods. The machine stopped and we heard, “The wolves are hunting tonight.”

It was a male voice so Gideon motioned for me to stay, while he moved forward with the shotgun aimed at the field.

“Marcus?” he called. “Show yourself.”

“Relax, Gideon. I was expecting you in a chopper, not on foot.”

I peeked around the tree and saw a man in all white clothing kneeling on a snowmobile. Gideon motioned me out, while keeping the gun pointed at the man on the machine.

“Gas line froze. I had to put it down about a mile up the road. We’ve been searching for the right field.
