Bab 138: Mother Hen: Part One

Esme stopped just before the trees started to become scarce, and she could see the small field before the Hub's building. After two hours of running, and even playing, and surprisingly play fighting with grumpy ex Alpha, the group had relaxed around each other. Even Brody seemed more at ease, and they were at ease with him.

Esme was a little concerned for the type 1 rogue now that they were at the Hub. He would struggle again to shift, but she hoped he would stay in his human form longer this time, and Einar would be helpful. At least, when he was in his human form, he didn't look like a type 1 rogue. 

Esme turned to look back at the grey wolf with milky pink eyes, then turned to the others who seemed to loom over her with their large frames. She jogged by their sides and hid behind a tree, out of view as she shifted onto two feet.
