He looked deep into the wolf's eyes and saw something devious in them. The energy made him shiver.

  Is this - is this how he really behaves?

  Suddenly, he jumped when he heard the entrance open. He looked around and saw that everyone was still asleep.

  So who was coming in?

  As if he completely forgot the form that haunted him seconds ago, Shadow shifted and braced himself.

  He heard footsteps coming towards them.

  To warn his friends of dange, Shadow tilted his head back and howled.

  You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

  Immediately, Max and Zack shifted and braced themselves as well. Hunter woke up and looked curiously at who was walking in. Rose had her magic ready.

  Shadow growled at the mysterious figure.

  "Don't fight, I know him!" Hunter declared.

  Shadow shot a look at the other black wolf, and snarled. "It better be!"

  The mysterious figure emerged. He appeared to be a dark haired boy. A teen about their age. He looked around in confusion.

  "Who are you people and what are you doing here?" The boy exclaimed.

  "Twitch, they're with me!" Hunter shouted.

  The boy's brows furrowed. "HUNTER? How did you get here without his knowledge?"

  Hunter looked at him with an expressionless gaze. "That fool has no match for my wits!"

  The boy turned to the rest of the pack. "Who are they?"

  Hunter looked at the other boy. "Newcomers."

  "So I see."

  Howl and Scratch looked at each other, while Shadow continued to stare at the boy known as Twitch.
