“Yeah, a native told me to go into the forest,”
“The forest?”
“That’s what she said,” I replied.
“Alright, let’s go,” we made our way into the forest, and as soon as we entered, Blade was starting to stir. Being in nature if one of this favorite pass times, and the fact that the greenery in this area was so lush, he was itching to get out. Calm down mutt.
I need to get out. It’s been days since you’ve let me out.
We need to find this Lorenzo Rossi first. The faster we find him and get the information we need on our mate, the quicker we get home and we can go running with her.
Fine.
“Ken, keep your eyes and ears open. This is new territory for us, and we don’t know who this guy actually is,”
“I’m not Ken,” I look over and see that Ajax has taken over.
“Ajax, what the f**k!?”
“Forgive me Alpha, but I needed some fresh air,”
“Bring Ken back now. That’s an order!”
“Yes, Alpha,” I watched as he gave Kendrick back control.
“f*****g Ajax,” he muttered, and I shook my head while rolling my eyes. We went further and further into the forest, and I found that we could no longer see the small town. We were completely surrounded by nothing but forest. “Wyatt, where the f**k are we supposed to fine a single person in the middle of a forest like this?”
“I don’t know, but I’m not giving up until we do. I need answers, and I’m not leaving without them,”
We kept moving, and it was starting to get dark. Kendrick and I haven’t eaten since we landed in Vatican City, and I knew both of us along with our wolves were starting to get hungry.
“Kendrick, we may need to shift to go hunting,” I tell him.
“Leave it to me, we both know you’re too damn big to go hunting on your own,” I scoffed at his remark as he took his clothes off and gave them to me. Camping out was nothing new to us, and luckily it wasn’t too cold at night in Italy at the moment. We could easily sleep in wolf form to keep us warm.
I waited for Kendrick to come back. I looked at my phone and saw that it had been over an hour since he went hunting. I know for a fact that it take doesn’t him that long to find something to eat, let alone in a forest as lush as the one we’re in, where there is plenty of small game. I tried to mind link him, but he was unresponsive. I got up from where I was sitting and went to go find him.
I followed the path that he took and followed his scent. I walked for about fifteen minutes following his scent, when I started to smell blood.
“Ken, are you there?” I called out to him. I was met with silence, and the smell of blood was getting stronger, while his scent was getting weaker. That wasn’t a good sign. “Kendrick, where the f**k are you!?” still nothing. I kept going in the direction of the blood, and I found a fresh deer carcass. I looked at the fresh kill, and I could tell that it was Kendrick’s doing, but where the f**k was Kendrick. I tried to mind link him again but still got no response.
Blade, tell me you if can sense Ajax.
No, I can’t. His scent is weak.
I don’t like this. Kendrick would never leave a kill like this.
As I was trying to track his scent, I heard a twig snap behind me, but before I could even turn around, I was met with a blow to the head, and immediately darkness took over.
***Kendrick’s P.O.V.***
Alright, Ajax let’s go get some dinner.
With pleasure.
I stripped out of my clothes and gave them Wyatt for safekeeping. Ajax shifted as he took over and took off into the forest. He was happy to be out, and I was happy being a werewolf because that meant we wouldn’t starve to death.
Let’s see if we can find a dear big enough to share. I heard that Italian dear meat is quite tasty.
You read my mind, Kendrick.
You know we technically share a mind right?
Don’t be technical with me.
Ajax pranced through the forest trying to pick up the scent of any wildlife. About ten minutes later, he came upon a doe at a stream. It was drinking water and had it’s back to us. I pulled back, and let Ajax have full control to go in for the kill. He stepped lightly and blended into the shadows. Even though he’s a golden wolf, he knows how to blend, and he is very stealthy.
Slowly he crept up on the doe who was completely oblivious to the fact that it was being stalked. Sorry little deer, but you’re going to be dinner for us. I said to myself and said a silent prayer for the deer. As the great words of Mufasa in the Lion King, it’s the circle of life.
Ajax was about ten feet away and crouched down getting ready to pounce. As soon the deer felt our presence, Ajax pounced and the deer took off, but it ended up being so startled it lost it’s footing trying to dodge some of the wet rocks around the stream and tripped. It allowed for Ajax to catch up, and he snagged it with his paws and swiftly killed it by suffocating it with a bite to the throat.
Good job man. That was an easy kill, and it didn’t suffer too much.
I almost forgot the thrill of the hunt. We need to hunt more often.
We will when we get back home. Maybe you and Tundra can have a competition on who can catch a rabbit first.
Sounds like fun.
We looked down at the deer he just killed, and he picked it up with his mouth. As were making our way back to Wyatt, something caught Ajax’s attention. He put the deer down and looked around. I concentrated using his sense, and I could feel that we were being watched. I shifted back into human form which was a horrible mistake. As soon as I did, something tackled me, and I felt myself hit my head and become delirious. The next thing I knew, I saw a figure standing over me, and a fist coming at my face. That was the last thing I saw. ***Rylee’s P.O.V.***
We were all sitting at the dinner table, but I found that I didn’t have an appetite. I hadn’t heard from Wyatt all day and seeing his empty chair at the table was making me incredibly depressed. I figured that he was busy with work and probably didn’t have the time to contact me, but it still bothered me. I looked over at Melody who also seemed to be down.
