Chapter 581
My wolf had a strange feeling about this, and I agreed with her. My eyes darted around the forest until I spotted a few Gammas in wolf form walking towards Cindy. They were sniffing the air, trying to get a whiff of her scent, but I knew, like me, they couldn’t smell her. She was wearing the masking spray, which should only be occupied by Gammas of the Elite force. It was created specifically for the Elite Force; nobody else was supposed to have access to that, so it was strange that Cindy was wearing it.noveldrama
There were a couple more Gammas walking in human form as well. They had weapons and were searching the perimeter, one of whom was looking up at my post, and though he couldn’t see me, he gave me a nod.
I didn’t bother to return it because again, he couldn’t see me.
My eyes found Cindy, who had no idea that gammas were approaching. She took a deep breath before moving from the tree and heading in the direction of the pack grounds. Her eyes were averted down, and that was when I noticed she was barefoot.
She had her hands on her belly, and her fingers were trembling as she clutched her shirt, like she was afraid it would fall off her body.
That was when I noticed something on her belly; it was small and hardly noticeable, but my wolf was immediately on high alert at the sight of it.
It was small and resembled a tick, but I knew better. I’ve seen them before, and I was warned about them in training at school.
I stared at the Gammas who were approaching her and stopped as I watched her finally notice them. Her eyes were wide, and I saw the slight panic on her face; that was all I needed to know… that was all the proof that was required for me to expose myself completely to them all.
Without thinking, I screamed.
“It’s a trap!!!! Take cover!!!!!”
But it was too late.
The explosion was booming, and the fire that erupted from it nearly took out the entire forest. My post was completely obliterated, and I was throw out of the tree. My wolf took over completely, her fight and fight mode activated, and right now, all she wanted was the flight. She shifted just as the explosion reached us, the burn of the fire stung, and she howled in pain as the smoke of the cloud invaded our lungs.
That didn’t stop her, though; I felt the pain from her paws as we landed on the ground… or at least what used to be a ground. Now it was nothing but a wasteland of heat and gravel as we ran through the burning forest.
The Gammas and Cindy were dead; that much was obvious. I could hear the commotion from the pack; I knew the explosion wasn’t enough to take them out, but it was enough that it did some damage and alerted the rest of the force.
If Cindy was able to get any closer to the pack, then it would have taken out the entire back… but instead, it only took out our forest. My heart was racing as we dodged falling trees and jumped around the blazing fire that nearly consumed us entirely.
My wolf was fast, and not before
long, we were breaking through the clearing and back on the packland There were buildings that had caughton fire from the explosion and trees that were burning to the ground way too close for comfort, but they were being taken care of by other gammas.
My lungs were burning from the smoke, and I hadn’t realized that I couldn’t breathe until I started to see specks of darkness clouding my vision. I was thankful at that moment that my wolf was taking complete control and got me out of that situation.
A giant black wolf came towards me, and I knew right away that it was Alpha Sampson. The second I was in his presence, my wolf had finally stopped running. She collapsed to the ground, our head hitting the pavement, and my chest heaving as I struggled to breathe.
Sampson’s wolf whipped his head around, and I knew he was sending a mindlink to someone. Then he turned and leapt towards the threat, his large wolf not looking back for a second.
I hadn’t realized that I shifted back
into human form until I heard the sound of my own moan. I was in
pain, and could hardly breathe from
how much smoke I had cd.
My skin was charred from
explosion, and I’m pretty sure I
sprained my leg from the run back to the pack.
As my vision went black and I slowly lost consciousness, the only thing I could
think about was my baby and how all I wanted was to protect it.
