I watch his teeth bare in a furious snarl.

I should be frightened. No, I should be terrified. But instead, a feeling of calm I haven’t experienced in years washes over me.

I stop running, my eyes glued to the wolf, now mere feet away from me.

“Hello, little mate,” says his voice in my head.

And then, with a thrill of terror, I watch the beast jump right at me, claws flashing.
