My True Mate

Hunter doesn’t approach us, just watching the two of us leave, a cold look in his eyes.


“We should move faster,” I say, quietly. “I don't have a good feeling about this.”


As we go deeper into the forest, Lucas stops me, looking around.


I strain my ears to see if I can pick up on any sound out of the ordinary. I can hear the insects, the birds, the small wildlife, and the faint sound of soft crunching of leaves.


“Change,” Lucas, says, grimly. “Now.”


Bag in my mouth, we both begin running.


A few minutes later, I hear the sound of someone chasing us. A few someones.


Lucas’s voice in my head nearly makes me stumble in shock.


I know that wolves can communicate in this form but it’s strange hearing a voice in my head.


‘Run faster.’ Lucas urges me. ‘We have to lose them.’
