skills could very easily bring Brady down if he wasn't on full alert.
    They shared strikes, and it felt like Adrian was watching a movie instead of her own life playing out before her. But it all became real when she heard a familiar growl from not that far behind her. In fact, it was close enough to touch her.
    Without daring to turn around, Adrian came bursting through the gate and landed in the snow next to Brady in his bear form. A sound like clapping was coming from behind her, and the wolves in front of her began to shake and turn back into their human form. Brady wasn't buying into it, though, and stood there in his majestic bear form, bringing her into him.
    "What an excellent job, honey," a voice came out, sweet as molasses. It made her whole body go rigid before she forced it to look at the man who had yet again found her.
    Like the rest of the wolves, the man that called himself Wolf was standing before her smug and buck naked, bringing back uncomfortable memories. "What are you, and how did you find me?" Adrian asked through gritted teeth. That was the moment Brady chose to change, looking between the two of them in confusion.
    "I think it's pretty obvious what I am, hon. And as far as how I found you, it was a happy coincidence. I had no idea you were here until I smelled you on him." Wolf spat the last words out in complete wrath. “So, you left me and everything I could give you for this guy? Look at where you are.” He pointed around with a cocky laugh. How she had ever thought, she loved such a man she didn’t immediately understand. And she was utterly confused about his status as a werewolf.
    “Wait, this is the one that put you in the hospital; he’s why you’re here?” Brady asked, incredulously. “He’s their leader, Adrian,” he said somberly as if he was apologizing instead of Wolf. “All this does is give me more pleasure in ripping you off of this planet,” Brady announced loud enough for all to hear. He was flashing a sneer right at Wolf, and Adrian found it easy to admit herself that she was rooting for Wolf to be torn to shreds, but she wasn’t sure what the costs would be.
    It became apparent, however, as Wolf made a swift move, revealing the fact that everything he had done was smoke and mirrors. Behind his ankles, buried in the snow was the gun that had been in the cabin since she moved in. He pointed it right at Brady's heart, and time froze as Adrian had to make a decision. It was funny to think back to the way she felt just a few weeks ago. She never would have contemplated getting in harm’s way to save her lousy stepbrother. But now the one she hated had become her whole world, and she would collapse and die without him there to breathe her to life every night.
    Adrian placed herself right in the path of the bullet, feeling the sting as it dug its way into the skin of her chest. It was much on par with a terrible muscle ache or the worst heartburn she’d ever had. But her body wasn't going to take her any further, and she collapsed into the snow, spilling blood out to her left side. She tried to look into the face of who she was certain was her murderer, but the look of horror on his face was too confusing. Just as the world began to go black, she saw a wolf flying over her body with a guttural growl, and a new battle begun.

    "It looks like you're going to be just fine. If you want, I'll send for all the paperwork now to release you to your home with this fine gentleman here," the doctor winked with a big smile. "You'll probably still have soreness and stiffness for a while, and definitely keep it clean to avoid infection. And in case I don’t see you again, I want to apologize once more for Wolf's behavior. Had I been made aware of his rough dealings with women before, I would have taken over the pack much sooner?" The man they now knew to be Oliver bowed to them and walked away, leaving the memory of that night hanging in between Adrian and Brady.
    What had
