Riley POV
Jamaia and I reached Lake Sirius the next day at sunset. We were both utterly exhausted but kept going. Coffee in our veins was the only thing keeping us running.
We walked along the shore of the lake until we found the cave entrance that Alex had described. It looked unguarded, so we moved to go inside until two large wolves suddenly appeared out of the shadows and growled threateningly as we approached.
“I’m Jamaia Borak, and this is Riley Higgins,” Jam said calmly to the angry werewolves, “We were both students at Silverstone and friends of Alex Silver. He sends a message.”
I held up Alex’s signet ring for the wolves to see. They immediately stopped growling when they saw the ring and transformed into human form, completely unfazed that they were naked.
I would never understand how werewolves were so comfortable with just being nude out in the open like that.
“Alex is alive!” one of them exclaimed in shock, “Follow me! The rest will want to hear this.”
