“Go NOW!” I yelled, spinning around and pointing the gun at him, tears in my eyes. James threw his hands up in surrender and backed away, then turned on his heel and ran off toward the camp.

Not a rogue like the one I saw that night when I was running from Luke, though. Instead of some mangy, mutt- looking creature that appeared half human, this one was a huge, brown wolf that towered several feet over me. Its paws were bigger than my head, and the teeth that it bared were at least five or six times as big as the one that K had shown me around his neck in the coffee shop.

Had he even truly shown me a werewolf tooth, or was it all a lie?
