Chapter 101
I felt sick to my stomach at the thought of it, but I had to keep my sleeping composure, so they didn’t know I was awake. His hold on me tightened to a point where it felt like I couldn’t breathe.
We continued walking for several more minutes until I heard a rustle of leaves in the distance. My entire body froze as a familiar scent invaded my nose. I might not have a wolf, but I still had some of the abilities a wolf would have such as strong senses. I knew that scent; it was Shirley’s scent.
“What are you doing here?” One of the rogues asked as if they knew her.
“You know why I’m here,” Shirley barked at them, a growl leaving her throat.
“You told us you wouldn’t interfere,” the same rogue hissed.
A chill ran down my spine; Shirley knew the rogues were here and spoke to them? She made an agreement that she wouldn’t say anything? What the actual hell was happening?
“Yeah, well, the plan’s changed,” Shirley said, a deadly threat lacing her words.
“What the fuck does that mean?” The rogue snapped. “You said “
“I know what I said,” she growled. ‘But I changed my mind. I think it would be better if I played the hero instead of the victim p>
“What??” The rogue holding me growled, his hold tightening even more and squeezing the life out of me.
Before any of them could say anything more, I felt the shift in the air. A loud growl came from Shirley, and I knew right away that Shirley had shifted into her wolf form. I shuddered when I heard the snapping of canines and others shifting into their wolf forms as well.
I managed to open my eyes, adjusting them to the new lighting and I saw Shirley’s auburn wolf lunging at the rogues nearby and surrounding me. There was at least half a dozen of them; way more than I originally thought.
The only rogue who hadn’t shirted
was the one holding me; he was now running in a different direction Shirley’s eyes found his and she lunged towards him. He ran faster; for a rogue in his human form, he
was a fast runner.
My eyes locked onto Shirley, and I knew she could see the pleading in my eyes. She ran even faster, and a loud growl escaped her lips just as she lunged through the air and at the rogue. Just as she reached me, another wolf, much darker with deep yellow eyes came into view and he looked furious.
Relief flooded me.
Elliott!
More wolves from his pack, I knew were Beta Leo, Gamma Luca,
Gamma Erik, and other gammas ran through the forest behind Elliot, alt looking furious and deadly. But wasn’t afraid of them; I was afraid of the rogues that were taking me away.
Shirley managed to get to me first and she latched her canines onto the rogue’s deg, making him howl in pain as he fell to the ground,
dropping me in the process. I hit my
head on a rock and my vision hienet

blurred. The gash on my head reopened and blood spilled across
my cheeks as I rolled over onto my
back.
I heard Shirley tearing the rogue apart while the gammas and Beta Luka ran to capture the others who were now running in different directions, fearing what the Alpha might do to them. Elliot had shifted into his human form; he was completely naked as he knelt before me, panic in his eyes.
“Silver, stay with me,” he said, his voice pleading. “Just stay with me p>
