Chapter Fifteen

Kean

MADISON!

He knew something was wrong the instant he tried to slow up to move over the ATV. When her voice reached him, he looked around frantically. Horrified, he watched as she sailed freely through the air ahead of him.

Kean threw on the brakes. Ahead of him a fallen log yielded his best hope for a quick stop. Madison had only flown twenty or so feet through the air. By the time he stopped from his flat-out run, he would be much farther than that. He’d have to double back. The log would provide a solid backstop for him to springboard back the way he’d come.

He slowed, starting his turn so that he could plant his feet against the log and push off. The solid wood trunk came closer, and he bent his knees in preparation.

I’m coming, Madison! he thought frantically to himself as more ATVs closed in on them. Her screams and the explosion of the errant course change by the first ATV to spot them would have allowed anyone to triangulate in on their position.

Kean planted his feet on the log as his body twisted back to face Madison where she lay on the ground. He had no idea the condition she was in. Was she even alive? Any broken bones? She hadn’t gotten up yet… was she unconscious? Had she suffered severe head trauma? He wouldn’t know until he got close.

The instant he made contact with the trunk, Kean knew he was in trouble. The core of it was rotten. He’d missed the signs in his haste. He went right through it, the wood crumpling under the impact of nearly two tons’ worth of weight. Completely out of position and off balance, Kean’s legs caught in the remains of the trunk, flipped him up and over, and he rolled several hundred feet through the forest. He took out smaller trees as he went, until he bounced off a much thicker trunk, spun around through the deadwood on the forest floor, and ended up in a heap some hundred and fifty feet away from Madison.

The first ATV came in close.

Kean growled, the sound thundering out through the trees as he let everyone know that he was still very much in the fight. Out of position, yes. But uninjured, and still a force to be reckoned with.

The passenger on the ATV whipped out a weapon even as Kean charged back toward Madison. The short, stocky little gun looked nothing like a modern submachine gun. Which didn’t mean Kean wasn’t instantly able to recognize it.

Shit, tranqs.

Whoever these men were, they were prepared for shifters. That was a very important fact, one he needed to remember once they were out of danger. They had been expecting either him and his brothers, or other shifters. Not humans. Which meant that charging around in his animal form had just become a Very Bad Idea.

The one downside to his bear was that it presented a very, very large target. Which was exactly the opposite of what Kean wanted just then.
