CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

“You know, Ted is going to be a pain in the ass the entire time you’re on the road,” Timmons said.

“That’s why you’re going too, because of your experience in dealing with him,” Terry countered. The smug look on the Werewolf’s face disappeared. “We’ll bring James, Lacy, and Geronimo, too. That’ll round us out. I hope you don’t mind riding a horse. They’ve grown used to Were folk, so they shouldn’t be too skittish.”

The real reason they were taking Timmons was that without Char, he’d probably try to take over the town, and they couldn’t have that.

They walked out back of the barracks to select their horses to see which ones would let the newly arrived Werewolves ride them. The bear cub went nuts when the Were pack showed up. He’d been good with Char, but not with the rest of the pack. He growled and stood on his back legs, pawing at the air as he snapped his jaws at them.

“Interesting,” Terry said, and he walked past the enclosure to get to the stable. The Force de Guerre maintained sixteen horses, and Terry was going to take eight of them on his trek around the Wastelands.

It was hard traveling to force their way straight through the waste, but if they skirted the mountains heading north, they’d maintain the advantage of good hunting and better weather until they were far enough to avoid the worst of the heat. Then they’d head east.

Terry wasn’t worried about the open country but the metropolis concerned him. From Milwaukee all the way to the heart of Chicago was one solid urban area. What would remain from before? What would be new?

Maybe he was more curious than worried. He also wanted to know the extent of his new strength, his new power. It was as if he had the combined abilities of a boosted human and a Werewolf. He expected Char was the same. Could they be unstoppable?

What if they ran across a Forsaken? The pack had told them that one arrived in Cancun, and that was why they’d run. Terry knew that he was supposed to be afraid of them, but with Char at his side, could he challenge one and win?

No. He didn’t want to learn the answer to that. He caressed the small comm device he always carried with him. That was how he would handle a Forsaken if the need arose. Akio and his people would come. They could deal with the others. All Terry and Char had to do was hide in the daylight.

If it were only that easy. He yelled at the pack to ‘stop being a bunch of ack-jasses’ and stop taunting the grizzly cub. They reluctantly joined him after the poor cub had worked itself into a lather. Blackie climbed into the enclosure to settle the creature down.

Terry led the pack past the stable and the horses went ballistic, rearing and pulling at their leads, eyes wide in terror. Clyde barked and ran around, further stirring up trouble.
