When I arrived at the claiming territory, McKenna had just entered. As soon as Jara turns around to head back, Quinton, Davis, Jonas and Jared surround her.

I rush over, not sure what’s happening but feeling protective of my

mate.

“Luna Jara, what’s going on? Why did McKenna look terrified this morning?” I hear Davis ask as I jog up.

“I think the reality of the situation hit her overnight. She woke up terrified this morning. I’m pretty sure she didn’t sleep last night, and she refused to eat this morning.” Jara tells them. Knowing my mate like I do, I know that she’ll be feeling some guilt over not being able to help McKenna, so I push past the others, and wrap my arm around her.

A crowd of McKenna’s claimants is gathering to hear what’s going on. The Alphas and Jared all turn to look into the territory, listening to McKenna as she runs in the forest. Even from here, it’s obvious that she’s running scared, not like what we heard from Katerina a week ago or even what I heard from Jara last year.

As we stand there, they all move to sit at the entrance of the territory. I stand with Jara, as she listens too, so we hear it when McKenna begins to hyperventilate. We hear the thunk as she hits the forest floor.
