Independent She-wolf novel Chapter 38

That's when I saw the foamy venom dripping from it's muzzle. His eyes were a sickly shade of yellow and they were glazed over in an evil manner. The wolf was bristled and he gave me a smile. 'Looks like I found a new toy," he said in a raspy voice.

Holy frickin' god! Are you shitting me? I'm so friggin' screwed. Damn, I'm so freakin' dead. Shit. Shit. Shit.

I turned tail and bolt. Not one of my best options, but my only one. The rabid rouge gave chase to me. I heard him howl out in a menacing tone. I ran faster than I had ever gone in my entire life.

It was night and the forest was dark. There was no moon out. Of course a rouge attacks when there's a new moon. Since it was the moon, that made me what I am, I was always weaker when it wasn't up in the night sky. But right now, all I could focus on was getting the hell away from this rouge.

He kept chasing me and was right on my tail. I could hear his malicious laugh echo in my mind. I had to reach out to Jace somehow. Who was I kidding? I can't be alone. I'm weak and fragile little orphan werewolf. I'm not strong.

Wait. Katie! If she could only see me, she'd tell Jace and get help. 'Katie!" I screamed in my mind. 'Help me, please!"

The rouge just laughed at me. 'There's no helping you little girlie."

Oh, shit!

Jace's P.O.V.

I went back into the funeral home. Dani just needed time. Her parents died and she was upset. She just needed some time on her own.

It was worse that she always tried to act strong and that she'd be able to handle things on her own. But sometimes, people needed help. Right now, Dani needed my help. I wouldn't push her though. My girl was still unpredictable at sometimes.

The one thing that bugged me the most was that there was something wrong that she wasn't telling me. When I saw her earlier this morning, I felt an uneasiness among her. And it wasn't just that she was going to her parents' wake.

Part of it, I could feel, too. It was like something was different about the town. I just couldn't wrap my mind around what it was. Was this what made Dani so uneasy? If it was, I needed to find Dani, and fast.
