I wonder if he expects me to repeat the words Lewis taught me, or if I can sniff him and get more information that way. But he doesn't seem to require a handshake, and when I hear footsteps in the distance, I know there's no time for sniffing.
"Come then," Evan says, and before I can say a word, he scoops me up in his arms and shoots through the forest at breakneck speed, even faster than I can run as a wolf. Trees blur by like they did in Axel's truck, and only a moment later, he's stopping in front of a large dwelling near a running creek. I don't see how this can be a place to hide, as the house is huge and made of some kind of white stone. I can barely see the water in the night, but the trickling sound is like a balm to my ears, and the damp scent of moss fills my heart with comfort.
Pushing aside the massive steel door, he sets me inside and says, "Welcome to my lair."
