Fur, Cloak and Dagger (Team Greywolf 4) - Page 69

Nik kissed her head. “Sleep, my beauty.”

Like she woke up from the most pleasant dream, Emma suddenly realized this had not been the best use of their free time. “What about our escape plans?”

“After I take a nap, I’ll find us transportation.”

“About tonight…”

“Shh.”

Too late to close the floodgates, Emma closed her eyes. Might as well rest because she’d need every bit of focus to escape and warn the LIA. Emma drifted to sleep.

A distant howl alerted them something had happened. She sat up just as the sun rose. “Did you hear that?”

Nik stood by the window, completely dressed. How long had he been awake? Had he gone out to look for a boat? “Yes. A distress howl.”

“You mean the chimera wolves are in danger?”

“A female. She has undergone the change.”

“They must have tested one of the women from the pool party.”

“You slept through the most agonizing howls.”

The howl pitched louder. “Is she getting closer?”

“Yes, she somehow ran away and now Bolton and his men are following her.”

“In werewolf form?”

“No, human. Perhaps they don’t want to scare her.”

“Surely, she must have known what she was getting into.”

Nik stiffened. “I know her.”

“Who?”

“Nexus just became a wolf.”

“You mean werewolf.”

“No, a real wolf.”

Emma wrinkled her brow. “Like the monkeys, the females never turned into a full werewolf or monkey wolf, whatever. They remained in some screwed up canine form.”

“Stay here.”

Emma hastily dressed. “Wait, don’t go out there.”

The sound of the door crashing down explained why.

Chapter Thirteen

Nik dashed to the living room. A normal-sized black and grey wolf, but with floppy ears like a dog, plopped on the floor. Two tranquilizers darts had penetrated her rump and shoulder. Men ran toward the cabana.

Emma joined him. “What kind of wolf is this?”

Bolton and his men arrived. Bolton stared at the canine. “Sorry about the disturbance.” He signaled Ed and Lee. “Bring her to the lab. I’ll meet you there with our guests.”
