Chapter 130: Chapter 130

"They likely won't attack until morning," Gaius stated as Kelly paced back and forth in front of the circle of me.

  "They can't aim their weapons at moving objects if they can't see them."

The wolves nodded in agreement.

The wolves were anxious, the stress pouring off them in waves.

  He was anxious as well, but he had schooled himself to remain calm.

  He hoped his pack would follow his lead.
