“I’m coming with you,” Lanie said, grabbing up her clothes.
She looked manic, like she was about to come unraveled.

I took her by the shoulders. “We can’t both leave,” I said, holding her gaze. We were wasting time discussing this. “What about Stella?”
Lanie’s eyes widened and she blinked hard,
“I’ll take her to my mother,” she said, nodding along like she was convincing herself it was a good idea.
“Okay, but we need to do this fast,” I said.
“Yes..yes…” she said distractedly.
I carried the bassinet down the stairs as gently as I could while Lanie snuck into her mother’s room.
“Mama, Selena’s left,” she whispered. “We’re going to find her.”
“Really?” Julia said. She sounded equally upset and relieved.
“I need you to watch Stella,” Lanie said.

“Of course, of course,” she said. “Go now.”
I pushed the bassinet inside, and we slipped out of the house, not speaking as we stripped down and shifted, sn atching up our clothes in our mouths.
Lanie pawed at the ground where Selena had shifted, instructing me to pick up her smell.
I leaned down and flared my nostrils, taking in as much of the scent as I could.
“Find her,” I commanded to Colt.
And then we were off, Lanie and her wolf trailing just behind me. I knew she could keep up; she made that clear when she’d followed me into the woods outside the cabin.
We ran and ran for what seemed like forever, weaving through trees until we were following the winding
road that led out of our territory.
What the hell? Was Selena going into the nearest human city? I knew the way well after all those years of
meeting up with Alice.
Lanie ran up beside me, seeming just as confused as I was.
Finally, the trees cleared, and we could see it. The human city lit up just beyond the tree line.
We crept along the edge of the forest until we feared we’d be seen, and then we shifted back and threw on
our clothes

“There!” Lanie cried, pointing over my shoulder. “She’s walking into that bar”
My heart sank before I even turned around.
I knew exactly which bar she was talking about because I’d met Alice there dozens of times.
I turned around slowly, and sure enough Selena was slipping inside. A sharp bolt of fury shot through me. She was barely seventeen. Why the hell were they letting her in there?
I glanced back at Lanie. She looked horrified. She was probably wondering the same thing.
“We have to see who she’s meeting in there,” Lanie said desperately, charging out of the trees.
I grabbed her arm, pulling her back.
“Don’t act rashly,” I instructed. “Or someone could get hurt.”
