My dreams were chaotic and stressful. I dreamed of shifting and running through the woods back home. My paws skimmed over the leaves and moss and dirt, the scent of the outdoors filled my nostrils, the wind brushed my fur. Those images were interspersed with screaming monsters, splashes of blood, and dark figures reaching out to me. When I woke the next morning, I felt like I hadnât slept at all.
Restless, I sat up. My dreams were a symptom of being on this island. All the death and danger everywhere, coupled with the fact that I hadnât had a good run since getting here, had filled me with anxious energy. Iâd run through the woods in my wolf form, but running for your life was way different from running for relaxation and enjoyment. Shifters werenât meant for this. We werenât creatures made to be caged up with no outlet for stress.
Part of me missed the grueling training of the Tranquility ops. Shifting and running through specialized courses would be better than what I was doing here. Maybe homesickness had something to do with my strange dreams? The thought struck me as strange. Thereâd never been a hint of that when I left my pack. Of all the things in my life to have made me wish for home, it should have been those months after I became a lone wolf. Iâd been fine, though. Once my unofficial pack took me in, I felt even better. Almost like truly coming home.
Chewing on the inside of my cheek, I thought about my pack. August Evander was probably my closest friend aside from Kolton. He was one of the top lieutenants of the unofficial pack, had been since joining up with us three years ago, and I missed that son of a bitch like crazy. Iâd have given my left arm to have August and Kolton here for an hour to trade some jokes, stories, maybe a few conversations about football or basketball. Anything. The longer I remained here, the more isolated and closed off I felt. I thanked the gods that I had Kira.
Before my homesickness could turn into full-fledged depression, voices from across the room pulled me out of my rapidly building despair.
âBro, no way. Jamison would destroy that guy in man coverage. Iâm not a fan of the Fangmore Beasts, but if you think the quarterback for the Eastern Wild Manticores is good enough to throw dimes on Jamison, youâre off your rocker.â It was J.D.âs voice.
I glanced over and found him tying his shoes, talking football with Abel.
Abel shook his head. âAre you serious? Clinton was the freaking MVP of the league last year.â
J.D. pointed at him. âMVP, but did his team win the Shifter Cup? Nope, the Flames did. That guy choked hard, threw four interceptions in the championship game. Jamison will eat him alive this year. Mark it down.â
Abel snorted a laugh and waved a hand at J.D. âWhatever. Iâm going for breakfast. See you down there.
