“It’s alright, big boy.” Richard said in a calming voice that I’d never heard him use before. He continued to pat the wolfdog’s head, and eventually, the dog allowed its eyes to flutter close, and its large tongue was even hanging out of his mouth.

Even though the dog seemed docile for now, my heart was still slamming against my chest. Animals were unpredictable, and I was terrified that the wolfhound could flip a switch in a second and att Richard. I’d gotten a peak at the animal’s sharp teeth, and it wou take him half of a second to rip out Richard’s throat.

“Come on, guys,” Richard yelled to Kelly, Ava, Aiden, and me. “Stop hiding. This sweet dog isn’t going to hurt anyone.” He turned to Ava and me, gesturing for us to get down from the tree.

“Don’t turn your back on the beast!” Ava warned, her voice full of anxiety. Her eyes were wide with fear, and her legs were shaking, making the branch that we were standing on unsteady. ““It’s just pretending to be tame, then it’s going to attack you!”

“No he won’t.” Richard’s voice was full of confidence. “He’s my friend now.” He looked at Kelly and Aiden, who were still hiding in the ditch. “Come on, you two. You’re getting all muddy. This sweet boy isn’t going to hurt anyone. I promise.”

I squinted as I studied the man in the middle. He was the tallest man out of the three, and there was something about the set of his shoulders and the confident way he walked that made my legs tremble.

As he got closer, my stomach jolted with

I knew the man in the middle.

I knew him all too well.

It was Alexander.

What the hell was he doing here?

The hulking man on the right nodded and whistled once, immediately calling the dog to him. Once the wolfhound was behind the closed front door, my shoulders slumped in relief, and it felt like I could actually take a breath again.!

Alexander ambled over to the tree and offered me a hand. “Come on down,” he said, his voice full of amusement. “If you grip that tree any harder you’re going to snap the branch, then the whole tree will fall.”
