Chapter 7

This time he couldn’t e-mail his friends in the States to ask about this Rider character.Why?Because how awkward would it be if he was caught doing something like that?Not trusting Mikael?No,he wouldn’t risk it.He’d wait and hope for the best.

The wolf pack decided to wait and see too.And so one day in early September,Mikael took the farm’s large SUV and went to pick up the guests from the airport,some two hours’drive away.

The whole farm was jittery.Shani hadn’t shifted yet,but she was communicating more with Lark,and somehow Noah had a feeling the females were hiding something.The cheetah was now able to stay in the yard with Lark,hanging out when Lark did chores,and even be present when Lark talked to the males of the farm.

The wolf pups liked Shani,not having seen a cheetah before,and it seemed like Shani liked to act as their babysitter.It was weird,having a shifter act like a well-trained pet of sort,but it was her choice,and everyone respected that.
