Recap:
It all stopped for a moment until her eyes finally shot open. They were scared, looking around for help. She pushed herself up but in a matter of moments her four legs gave away, as she wasn't used to it.
She stopped in her tracks when she noticed us and a whine escaped her lips. She pushed herself up weakly, her legs shaky, her paws dug into the ground to keep her upright.
I knelt down and she made her way over, her eyes filled with fear. Since she was still young her wolf wasn't that large. She was in her pre-teens.
I crawled forward and she collapsed in my arms. Her coat was rough but had a soft touch to it. Her panting still harsh.
She looked up at me, her ears went back as she whined and made barking noises, attempting to speak to me. "I don't understand you, let me shift" I whispered and she simply nodded her head.
"No" Asher spoke from behind me and I glared at him. He wasn't looking at me though, he was looking back into the woods where we saw the set of eyes.
"We don't have time" He turned his back to me and now I understood. The two eyes were still there, watching us but now their were two more sets along side it. Advancing toward us.
———————
A whine erupted from behind me and I turned back to see Yasmin backing up, her tail between her legs.
"Run" I whispered to her. Her brown eyes landed on me and she shook her head furiously. Asher didn't hesitate to turn to both of us.
"Shift then run with her" He growled and my eyes widened. He couldnt be serious.
"You shift and run with her" I replied and he let out an annoyed moan. His eyes left me and back to the wolves who were now froze in place, their bodies not fully revealed from the shadows.
Another whine came from behind us and it was clear Yasmin was panicking. "Asher, get her to safety. I can outrun them" I said hurriedly. The wolves weren't moving yet but I wasn't going to wait around and see what would happen.
Asher looked at me in shock. "Are you serious?" His voice was filled with anger, "Are you asking me to leave you alone to get those wolves to follow you?"
My jaw tightened. Why was he so fricking stubborn?!
Yasmin made a bark like sound behind us and I quickly turned to her. She was trying to communicate with me. She whined and barked furiously, nodding toward the wolves.
I whipped around and was about to shift, thinking they were coming our way again but they were in the same position.
"Asher, I'm going to shift, she's trying to tell us something" I informed him and he just nodded his head.
"Me too"
The cracking of bones were almost in sync as we both began to shift, our bodies changing shape until we were in our wolf forms.
It was easy to see the size difference Yasmin's wolf was ours now. She was definetly smaller.
"Guys?! Guys?! Hello?!" Good, she was able to mind-link.
"Calm Yazzy, we're here now. You're wolf is beautiful looking" I added, hoping to calm her when Asher interrupted.
"That's cute and all but if you haven't noticed we're being watched by three other wolves." He cut in and I narrowed my blue eyes, my white tail hitting him in annoyance.
He was right though.
"Hello" A low voice cut into our mind-link and I snapped my heads up. The wolves were communicating with us.
"Who are you?" Asher didn't hesitate, not wanting nice greetings. It was clear he was stressed.
"We mean no harm if you co-operate" Another voice cut in and it was probably the wolf on the right as it moved slightly. Although they were in the distant it was clear to make out their shape and colour.
The one on the right was an extremely light brown, a shade lighter than Yasmin's.
The one in the middle, his wolf was larger and was an extremely dark brown, almost the shade of black.
The one on the left, was around the same size of the wolf on the right if not a bit smaller. His pelt was a greyish colour.
I shifted awkwardly as my eyes met with the dark brown wolf in the beautiful.
"You mean no harm?! You attacked my pack, you attacked my mate!" Asher took a step forward, his tail was straight, it was clear anger was taking over.
I didn't bother informing I wasn't exactly his mate because it wasn't the time.
"We caused no harm to your pack" The wolf on the left spoke.
I'll admit, it was kind of creepy how they all kept talking in turns. Like it was practiced or something and it made me feel slightly uncomfortable.
I couldn't help but look around, feeling like I was being watched.
Were they planning an attack?
"Settle down, we are with no-one. We are three Rogues, all related. Our sister is the only one watching from a distance." The one in the middle told us and my body relaxed.
Asher didn't.
"Rogues are just as bad" His mind-link was vicious and my eyes met with the wolf on the left.
"We are not bad. We come in peace, we aren't like the others. We just want to show you that so you wont attack us" The one in the middle continued, "In fact we are here with some information".
Asher tilted his head, narrowing his eyes, his tail was straight. I could see he was stressed.
"What information could you possibly give us?"
"You are too hostile." The wolf in the middle growled and I noticed the one on the right nudge him slightly, not wanting a fight to break out.
"They captured our sister but we retrieved her. They thought she was... her, or should I said Maisie" He nodded toward me and I felt slightly threatened, "We killed the ones who dared attempt to hurt our sister. They have no regrets, I came to warn you, if you dont watch out... you will die."
Asher hesitated momentarily.
"Why are you telling us this?"
"We hope in exchanging this information, you trust us and allow us to stay in this area while our sister recovers. We will not bother you as long as you don't bother us. We mean no harm" It was the wolf on the left who spoke now.
They sounded so serious and in sync that it was creepy. But I could tell there was truth in that sentence. Asher turned to me, his eyes meeting with mine so we could private mind-link.
"I believe them" I instantly said and Asher tilted his head. He didn't do anything for a moment and it was clear he was thinking until he finally turned to face the other wolves.
"Agreed. But if you dare betray us or hurt my pack, you won't even have a chance to run" He growled but I could sense he had eased up.
The three other wolves hesitated momentarily until the one in the middle finally nodded. "I'd rather you didn't say it like that but as you wish. We;ll be on our way back to where we're staying for now". The one on the left spoke now, his eyes on Asher.
The one in the middle was clearly frustrated by Asher's mood and how rude he was to them. He was just being protective though, although it was a bit harsh.
I almost jumped when something brushed against my leg and I quickly looked down only to realise it was Yasmin. She had been so quiet.
She pushed between Asher and I, her eyes locking on properly to the three wolves. The wolf on the right stared at her, confusion on his face.
He raised his head then looked to me and Asher.
"You're awfully young to have her at this age..."
I tilted my head in confusion then it dawned on me.
"SHE'S NOT OURS! SHE'S MY FRIEND!" I shouted through mind-link and they watched my outburst in surprise, "We aren't even mates".
A small growl was released from Asher's throat and he glared at me. I dropped my tail and looked down.
"Oh... you aren't mated?" My head snapped up when the middle one asked that, my eyes widened. Asher took a step forward and I quickly nudged him, to stop him.
"Not yet, but I belong to him"
What the hell did I just say?
I belong to him?
No I don't...
Asher's head snapped toward me, his eyes read shock. I could tell he was about to mind-link me privately so I quickly snapped my eyes away and began talking to the others to force him to stop.
"It was nice meeting you, please be safe on your journey and I hope your sister gets better" I bowed down and they stared at me in surprise.
"Such an amazing Luna" The one on the right spoke.
"Indeed she is..." The one on the left said straight after.
Okay, that was kind of creepy. And I wasn't a Luna!
The silence was becoming awkward until the right wolf finally saved it. "Thank you and same to you. We'll be on our way now"
They all turned at the same time, not bothering to say goodbye to Asher and he didn't even stop them. I could tell he didn't want them around so I was just glad he let them away.
We watched them as they walked off and when they were estimately fifty feet away, the middle on turned his head back and looked at Yasmin, Asher and I.
Then he mind-linked up and my heart immediately dropped at what he said.
"Run.."
And with that he turned away, following his brothers.
