"Keira Akar, Alpha River Colden, banish you from the White Howlers. I never want to see you again."
The Earth felt like it was swallowing me whole.
The ground had opened up and for some reason, it kept dragging me down with it and no matter how ha...

Being underground was nothing new to me or my Pack. It might even not be on most of their top five of unlikeliest places to end up in for battle.
Well, it mostly depends on who you would ask. Cyrus would say a smelly and musky underground would be a part of his top five since he usually stayed back in the Pack quarters to organize, not directly fight
Egan, on the other hand, who often saw even more disgusting and suspicious places since he was always in battle, would consider this not even half of the things he had to experience.
However, no matter what they consider this place as, I made sure that they knew that this was one of their most important battles because the thing is, it wasn't just about fighting. It was also about saving someone. This was more a rescue mission than a war.
"This place looks like it has been worked on for years." Egan linked to me as we walked carefully and cautiously into the cramped spaces of intricately carved passageways.
He was right. This wasn't a place made out of a whim. This was completely planned. There was ventilation in the right places and just enough light not to seem suspicious from above
The only reason we were able to find this was because of the sniffers. Had we not had extraordinary abilities, it would have been impossible to spot anything underground by the mountains far up into the deserted highway It was no wonder no other humans knew this existed
"We don't know who we're dealing with specifically so be on the lookout. Do not let your guard down She may be human, but we don't know what she's capable of "I warned everyone, specifically all twenty of my men, through our link.
We were getting closer I can not only sense it, but I can smell it. The smell of chemicals, medicinal and non It seeped in through my skin, and something else that didn't seem right I don't like this because I hated when I'm not fami-
"Stop!" Egan's mindlink traveled through mine in a millisecond, but just as it did, a set of traps had somehow been set off in that matter of time
What once was quiet underground soon dissipated into chaos when smoke enveloped the place and sounds of gunfire started coming out from goddess knows where
It didn't take long for all of us to shift and this allows us to see the place better with our vision. The only reason I only made Egan and his team shift before us was so the others could still keep their human senses in case it was needed, too
Obviously, our wolves were of better use now
"What the hell is shooting at us?!" I asked as all of us moved back from the noise
"I'll check it out. Everyone stays here. Do not move" Egan was the risk taker amongst all of us, for obvious reasons that is why he is the Gamma
Fuck. Did she have other accomplices we didn't know about? Based on our research beforehand, nobody else from her circle had gone missing or disappeared during the time she did so we didn't think there was anyone else we had to worry about
