Once Roman got up to speed with Blake, there was no stopping him. He was like a damn freight train. Though I doubted a freight train had ever been quite so sexy before. We were all running by that point, and I knew we were still being chased, but the wolves from Shadow Forest didn’t seem like their hearts were in it anymore, not as long as we were leaving their territory.

We ran for so long that my legs actually started to go numb. Usually, I got that runner’s high that kicks in after a while, but nothing was kicking in this time. I didn’t know whether it was because I was too scared or too damn tired after being on the run for what felt like weeks, seeing each of us get injured, sleeping rough, and everything else that had happened.

Roman started to flag as we neared the border of the woods where I’d met Tate. I could still feel that we were being followed, but the wolves weren’t nipping at my heels the way it felt like they’d been before. They could have easily taken us down, killed us, all of that, but they didn’t. Even when we were fighting, I thought they were going easy on us. Something I now suspected even more, given that they were allowing us to walk away, or rather run away.

Micah stopped Roman with a hand on his arm once we crossed the divide of trees. “Let me carry him for a while.”

Roman nodded, clearly exhausted and, once Micah had shed the packs he’d been carrying, passed an unconscious Blake over to Micah. While we were stopped, I dropped the pack I was carrying and ferreted out some clothes for Tate and Roman, tossing sweatpants and T-shirts at them as I found them. I had no idea who they belonged to, if they even belonged to any one person, or if they would fit the two larger men, but it was the best I had to offer.

They dressed, each giving me a quiet thank you. Though Roman may have regretted his thank you when the sweatpants I’d given him rose high above his ankles.

I couldn’t help but giggle as I watched him try to pull the pants lower without exposing himself. “You hussy you, showing your ankles off like that,” I said in mock horror.

He scowled up at me before reaching into one of the other packs. Eventually, he pulled out some running shoes and socks. Once he had a pair on himself, he tossed some to Tate.

“Thanks, but these won’t fit. I’ve got some big feet,” he said as he threw the shoes back. “A couple more pairs of socks wouldn’t hurt though.”

Roman fulfilled his request as he tucked the shoes back into the pack. When he straightened, I couldn’t help but voice the worry that had been plaguing me ever since he woke me up and told me that Blake’s wounds were infected.

“There’s no way we’re going to get all
