Chapter 0333
Sherri and some others started to cut the meat off the deer, using some tools they created after gathering supplies from foraging. I was surprised they were able to create handy tools so quickly. We had only been here for a couple of hours, and we were already making some serious progress.
A howl in the distance caught our attention and I quickly stood ot my feet, staring off in the direction the birds just escaped from. The howl sounded as if they were in distress and my heart hammered wildly against my chest.
Without waiting for anyone else, I stripped out of my clothes and shifted into my wolf. I heard Tabby calling my name, but I was too far gone. I was rushing into the forest, my wolver’s feet pounding into the dirt and grass around me as we made our way towards the sound.
All I could think about was something being wrong and someone being in serious trouble.
When I got closer, I saw one of my teammates being surrounded by a few wolves from another team. It was 3 on one, a completely unfair match.
I noticed my teammate had a red flag in his mouth. He found the second flag and the other wolves were trying to take it from him.
“It must have been near their campsite,” I thought to myself.
Before the wolves could attack him, I lunged at them.
They were startled by my sudden arrival and for a second, I had the upper hand when I bit into the neck of the biggest one. He yelped and immediately threw me off his back; I landed on the ground with a thud, wincing in pain as I tried to get up.
This allowed my teammates to get away with the flag.
They were racing back to our campsite, leaving me to fight by myself.
Three wolves were now circling me and growling.
I growled at them, spinning around so I could have them all in view and none of them could attack me from behind. But it was impossible with them circling me.
At that moment, I felt like a small pup.
One of them nipped at my hind legs, but I managed to get away from them before they could get any closer.
Another one swiped his claws in my direction, and I felt the sting of the claw marks on my wolf’s face making her huff in pain.
A wolf lunged at me, knocking me off balance while another one grabbed a hold of my throat with his canines, squeezing until I was gasping for air.
One of the wolves shifted back into human form and was clutching a pointed rock, something they either made or found, holding it to my throat.
“Shift,” he ordered, his voice deadly.
I wanted to refuse, but my wolf was weak and relented almost right away.
I shifted back into my human form, blood seeping down my neck.
“Give me your white flag and surrender,” he ordered, pressing the blade to my neck.
“No,” I said through my blood–soaked teeth.

Blood trickled down my neck as the blade cut into me.
“Then I guess we’ll just have to kill you and take it,” he said through his teeth.
A loud growl was heard from nearby and soon, I was no longer alone. Another wolf emerged out of the forest within seconds and had the man with the blade on the ground. The wolves‘ canines elongated and dug into the man’s throat, ripping him to shreds and killing him almost instantly.
The other wolves stood dumbfounded and confused as to what just happened. The wolf that saved me turned on them and growled fiercely in their faces, making them stagger backward.
It all happened so fast; I could barely comprehend it.
This wolf was huge, and she was female… I had never seen a female wolf so big before.
Her fur was jet black and gorgeous and her aura was strong stronger than any I had ever felt before.
I didn’t recognize her as part of my team, which was what confused me the most. Clearly, she was not part of their team either so I wondered if she could be the third team… maybe she wanted to kill me herself.
The other wolves didn’t stick around any longer; her aura was penetrating, and it made them back down almost instantly. I wasn’t the only one affected by her.
They took off quickly.
The wolf turned to look at me, her eyes pouring into mine. They were oddly familiar. I felt almost connected to her in a way… like I knew her from somewhere.
I flinched when she stepped towards me, bowing her head slightly to get a better look at my injury. I almost forgot that my throat was bitten, and blood was trickling down my neck. She leaned in even further, her breath bouncing off my skin.
I closed my eyes, expecting to feel her teeth sink into me, but they didn’t.
Instead, I felt her warm tongue licking the wound on my neck, healing it almost instantly.
I sucked in a sharp breath as I brought my fingers to my neck, feeling for any sign of the wound but feeling nothing. It was completely healed in a matter of seconds.
When I opened my eyes, the wolf was gone… and I was alone.
