Chapter 4

“George!” I cried out and threw my arms around his neck before I remembered I didn’t like him. I took a step back, reluctantly sacrificing the body heat that radiated from him, and wrapped my arms around myself instead.

“Are you okay?” he asked. His eyes were concerned when he ran them over my body. I almost physically felt everywhere his gaze touched.

“I’m okay… a bit battered but nothing’s broken, I don’t think. My shoulder’s badly sprained, or something.”

He took half a step forward before he stopped.

“May I?” he asked his hand hanging in the air between us. He wanted to check my shoulder. I nodded. I wasn’t sure but he looked like he was on top of everything. He touched my shoulder, softly probing with his fingers, pushing them into my skin, feeling the bone. I flinched when he pressed against the spot that hurt.

He asked me to lift my arm, and roll it over. When I did I winced.

“Not broken, you’re right,” he said. “Just sprained. I would be better for you to use it as little as possible.”

I could have told him all of that, I’d figured it out by myself, but I nodded.

“Everyone’s looking for you,” George said.

“Have they sent out a rescue team?”

“They don’t know where to start, the search is very wide right now.”

“But you found me,” I pointed out.

“That’s because I have other skills… your scent was easy to find.”

He was a werewolf. He’d changed in front of me. I hadn’t been hallucinating, and I had to remind myself of that.

“Right. So shall we get back then? I’m freezing.”

“We’ll have to double back up and then move around the other side,” he said. “A couple of yards down there’s a drop you won’t be able to make.”

“But you will?”

He nodded, and he didn’t have to say it for me to know what he meant. As a wolf he could, but I was just a human.

We started the climb, back in the direction we’d come. It was pitch dark among the trees now, and the snow was like a thick carpet under my feet. I followed George. His white fur coat was visible in the dark, and it led me like a beacon.

“Do you need that thing to be able to change?” I asked him after we’d climbed in silence for a while. I was out of breath and I felt lightheaded. Maybe the conversation would distract me.

“No, I can change whenever and wherever I like, most of the time.”

“Most of the time?”

“Full moon pulls the wolf out of me without me being able to stop it.” He stepped over a log and held out his hand to me. I didn’t take it, instead I climbed over myself. My legs hurt and it was hard with my shoulder, but I wasn’t going to let him help me.

“I wear this coat because it changes with me. Otherwise I end up naked. I didn’t think you’d be very happy about that, if I rocked out of the trees naked to save you.
