Chapter 5

Vonda turned to Tom as he howled. Howled. Since when did men howl?

Okay, maybe in the heat of passion, but nothing like what he let out. Her bones felt like ants crawling through them, small tingles burning deep.

She took a deep breath and gasped. What the...

Tom sprang from where he laid, muscles bulging. Vonda tried to reach for him, remembering at the last second she had no hands to pull him back.

Tom, no! Wait!

Of course he didn’t. Since when did men listen to a woman? And he’d left his rifle behind. Brilliant. Fight a bunch of werewolves barehanded.

If what she smelled on him was accurate, and her nose didn’t lie, he might have a better chance than she thought.

By now the startled werewolves flocked around Tom, while Elizabeth screamed, “Daddy!”

She should help Tom fight, she really should, but fighting was so not her thing. Sneaking, now that she was good at. She could sneak right around the clearing while Tom distracted them all and try to free Elizabeth. Two women stood by the girl, obviously guarding her.

Vonda slunk through the shadows, blending into the night, until she stood about thirty feet from Elizabeth. The girl still screamed for her father, but from the looks of things, Tom had lost. She didn’t have much time left to do what she planned. Thankfully she had learned while running with the wolves how to speak telepathically to one wolf and not the whole pack.

Elizabeth, I’m behind you in the woods. Vonda projected the thought into the girl’s mind, praying Elizabeth could hear her.

The girl’s head whipped around, eyes frantically searching.

Score one for the wolf. Now to convince her.

I’m a friend of your dad’s and here to help. Start crawling to me. I’ll distract them.

But Dad—

Let’s get you out first.

Vonda picked up a stick with her mouth and pitched it. She heard it hit, but the two guards didn’t. Shit. Quick, Plan B. She howled.

That got their attention.

Hey, Bitch. To your right. You wanna piece of this? She turned and stuck her tail into the clearing, waggling it.

One of the guards gestured for the other one to check it out. The woman trotted right, the other one watching her.

Elizabeth, change of plans. Run left, quick, go!

Elizabeth, bless her heart, jumped up and hauled ass. Tom really needed to put the girl in track.

“Hey, she’s getting away!”

Elizabeth was to the edge of the clearing before the wolves started moving. Vonda circled around, shocked she could feel the wolves’ surprise and indecision over whether to stay with Tom or chase Elizabeth. Half stayed, half chased.

Damn.

Before she made it to Elizabeth, the same giant who had stolen the girl came from behind a tree and grabbed her again. Vonda leapt, slamming into Big G and Elizabeth, taking them both down. Elizabeth scrambled out, and Vonda went for Big G’s throat.

She never made it.

A hand grabbed the scruff of her neck, shaking. Vonda knew she should submit because the hand was attached to what smelled like a dominant leader, but submitting meant letting them take Elizabeth and Tom and she couldn’t do it.
