THE REAL HUNT

~{INGRID'S POV}~

*

My feet suddenly came to a standstill as I watched the birds on the trees fly away with a loud cry, making me realize one thing in an instant.

Something wasn't right.

When I cautiously looked around, I found nothing out of order but the hair on my skin said otherwise. Something was lurking in the woods, waiting for the right moment to attack.

"Jamie," I softly called his name and noticed he had also stopped walking, meaning he perceived danger as well.

He slowly faced me and made a signal with his hands which said, 'be prepared to shift.'

I remained speechless as it sank in. Be prepared to shift

It meant one thing. There's going to be a serious bloodbath and the thought of it made my stomach churn. I didn't want to kill anyone after everything I had been through, I just wanted to find Red and get out.
