"Neah, stay still." Dane tells me

"No...it's fine. I'm almost healed."

He reluctantly holds out a hand to help me as I get on my feet. I think he knew that I was going to get up regardless and there was no point trying to stop me.

Dane continues to hold on to me as we make our way across the road towards the three dead Wolves, like I was somehow going to fall face first into the ground any second.

The Wolves were interesting, even after death, neither one of them had any scent. How had they masked it from us? Especially Brax, he had always been able to single out the different species. However they had done it, it must have been recently.
