Chapter 235 Rescue Mission

We move closer to the stronghold, me staying in Caleb’s shadow. He stays in human form for my benefit, but I can tell from the red sheen in his eyes, that he is on edge. Likely, he could shift in a moment’s notice to protect us. The wolves that hounded us seem to have all retreated. I still don’t understand what that could begin to mean. Dawn remains far off. The hunt shouldn’t be over already, but Gladys seems to have called it off.
