Chapter 21 : Monster

*Morgan*

Shane grabs my hand and pulls me inside the house. My head whips around wildly as I look around for the monster hunter. Is he watching us right now? I’ve only ever heard horror stories about monster hunters. My mother didn’t know much, but when I was young, she would tell me we must always be on the lookout for them. She said that hunters had a way to destroy without using magic. We had an escape plan for if one ever came to our village in search of us.

It seems like Shane’s pack has a plan in place too. There’s a flurry of activity as my destined mate barks orders at his pack. He turns to the two people who found Fredrick’s body.

“Cain! Take care of Clara. I think she may be going into shock.”

His red-headed friend nods grimly and puts an arm around the still-sobbing Clara, leading her away.

Then, Shane points at a young girl who is the first person we encounter in the house.
