Chapter 45

Alpha Jason

Shredding the ground beneath our paws, Mark and I make quick progress to the location Janas had communicated over the phone.

I mind-link with Mark.

“Two minutes tops.”

“Do you want me to join you or circle in from the east?”

“Join me. Janas couldn’t tell from which director the scent came before he lost it. It won’t matter.”

All eight legs pounding the forest floor, we reach Janas and the rest of the patrol quickly. Shifting back into our human forms, I dropped the small bag of clothing I had been holding in my mouth as we ran. Unpacking shorts, I quickly donned them as I gauged the scene before me.
