POV: Neah The clearing is silent except for the wind. Hundreds of wolves surrounding us in a perfect circle. Witnesses to ancient law. To a challenge that hasn't been invoked in five centuries. Marcus stands twenty yards away. Relaxed. Confident. Five hundred years of experience making him certain of victory. I'm exhausted.
