I skidded on the wet ground and they turned, mouths dropping open. "Thelycansarestillalive." My words were rushed, coming out as one. But I stared at my friends, waiting for them to react. But they were all staring at my forehead. "Did you hear me?" I waited for a reaction, a realization like I had, but there was nothing. So I said it again, slower. "The Lycans are
