I’m in wolf form; any involvement will be perceived as a threat. Barrett and I also do well to stay out of each other’s way.She’s pregnant.’ Conan, my wolf, growls. I try to calm Conan, but when she cries for help, he does a projectile leap from our spot across the road, where the woman is being dragged away. He lands in front of Barrett, who halts with a daring glare at Conan. I quickly regain control and shift back.“Stay out of this, Vince,” Barrett warns, his voice low.“What’s her offense?” I ask quickly, eyeing the woman whose face is drenched in tears and sweat.“It’s none of your business.
