We burst out into the snow a few moments later.

I fell in line behind Cora, pushing her ahead of me, so at least I knew for sure that she would be safe and they couldn’t get too close to her. We hustled Cora towards the woods and I glanced over my shoulder – they had caught sight of us and were making chase in the direction of the trees, and I winced. There were so many. Enough to take us all down if they caught up with us.

I shot into the darkness offered by the forest and we all exploded into wolf form, our clothes shredding around us. Cora was less awkward on all fours, and we picked up speed. I wished there was some way that I could give her my energy and imbue her with my power, but I knew that she wouldn’t be able to heal herself until she got some rest and food in her. Until then, it was no good dreaming about what might have been.

We finally caught up to where the others had been on the perimeter and they closed ranks around Cora, noting how weak she seemed, and helped carry her forward, their movement enough to keep the legs going underneath her. I knew she must have been exhausted already but we just needed to get her out of MacLaren territory and back to the cabin, where we had enough supplies to survive for now.

Anton, Marcus and I pushed ahead with Cora as the others brought up the rear. For another mile or more, we ran, leaping over downed limbs, skirting around boulders and snow banks.

It wasn’t until I looked over my shoulder again that I realized we’d broken away from the others. Slowing my pace, I searched the trees frantically for the rest of our team.

Anton’s nip to my shoulder jarred me back to the present. Slowing now was not an option. I couldn’t see the enemy, but I could damn sure hear them, the sound of their seemingly countless paws crunching in the fresh snow all around us. The trees were barren thanks to the time of year, no cover offered by the leaves and branches. It was just us and them out here, and the question was whether or not we could manage to keep our lead long enough to make them wary of crossing onto Kellum lands with so few numbers.

We sped through the blackness, Anton falling into step with me; I glanced in his direction but he didn’t look at me, focused forward, onward, away from the house of horrors behind us. Suddenly, a flurry of wolves shot out from the trees next to us – my heart spun in my chest and I skidded to a halt, ready to fight, but saw our missing teammates facing us instead of the MacLaren guards. One of them was hurt, badly – bleeding heavily from a grisly wound above his throat and I winced.

Joseph.

We slowed to a stop as a unit and Luke circled him, pacing restlessly.
