CHAPTER 15

NICK

Nick’s huge, black paws smashed down on a thick, fallen branch as he ran, the wood cracking and splintering into a million pieces as he put down his full weight on it. He didn’t stop to check out what he’d done. He ran on, glancing over his fur-covered shoulders to spot Josh and Caleb, both in their bear forms and following close on his flanks.

As he tore through the woods, he occasionally glanced up at the waning moon above, its silver glow haunting. After more running, the three of them reached the bluff overlooking the valley – their usual spot to take a break during their midnight shifts.

Nick came to a stop, bringing his huge body to a halt and shifting back into his human form. Josh and Caleb arrived moments later, both of them shifting back. A small smile crossed Nick’s lips as he realized he’d arrived first yet again.

“You guys need to do a better job keeping up,” said Nick, turning around. “You can’t keep having me win like this. It’s embarrassing. For you two, of course.”

The air was cool and refreshing on Nick’s warm, bare skin.

“What,” said Caleb, flashing a snarky smile. “You haven’t figured out by now that we’re letting you get to the top first? Gotta make sure that delicate ego of yours stays intact.”

Nick chuckled and gave Caleb a friendly push on the shoulder. Caleb shoved his hand away with a laugh, and the two of them tussled a bit. Then Nick noticed that Josh didn’t look to be in the mood for fun. He stared out over the bluff, something on his mind.

“What’s up, J?” asked Nick.

Josh shook his head, his eyes still fixed forward.

“You think that was him at the park today?” asked Josh.

“That’s what Cassie said,” responded Nick. “She said he was near the edge of the park watching the four of us.”

“But he wasn’t there when you looked?”

Nick shook his head.

“Not a trace of Elijah,” he said. “But Cassie seemed totally convinced.”

“She might’ve just been seeing things,” said Caleb, taking a seat on a nearby fallen tree. “After the dressing-down you gave her she’s probably so eager to show she’s doing the right thing that she’s jumping at shadows.”

Josh nodded slowly, indicating he thought this might be the case.

Nick crossed his arms over his thick chest, thinking it all over.

“But what if she did see him?” he asked. “Elijah coming to the house, then bringing his pack, and then coming to the park…if it’s all true, then he’s sending a hell of a message.”

“And it might not be ‘messages’ for much longer. If he’s planning what I think he might be, then he’s going to make a move before we finish the expansion.”

“What’s the timeframe for that?” asked, Caleb.

“Shouldn’t be longer than another month,” said Josh.

Then he turned his eyes to Nick.

“I want you to stay on top of Cassie,” he said. “Don’t just watch her, pay attention to her mood, everything.”

Nick nodded, knowing Josh had no idea how easy it was for him to say close to Cassie.
