The sound of the children screaming in fear combined with the growling of wolves is chilling, and I feel like I should help, but I don’t know what to do. I see the front door swing open and a wolf appear and I realize from the scent that it’s Alex and Della’s oldest son, Ezra. He’s standing there, facing the house and I realize he’s waiting to catch the offender when they try to leave.
There’s a rustling in the woods and I feel relief for a moment, thinking that it’s Seth and Alex, but I feel absolute terror when 4 large wolves appear, and not one of them is Altair.
Seth, hurry. 4 wolves just showed up. The other is still in the house.
We’re almost there. Stay hidden.
I reach out in my mind for Benjamin. There’s 4 wolves coming up behind you.
I can visibly see his body stiffen
