I woke up the next morning as my forms kept pacing around in my mind.

'Are you guys okay? What's wrong?' I asked in a hurry.

'Their coming,' Sapphira said. My eyes widened as I jumped off the bed and ran over to the closet. I quickly got dressed into my outfit that was made special for me so when I shifted into my dragon, it won't rip.

I pulled my hair into a ponytail and ran back into the bedroom. I saw Jackson still sleeping and rolled my eyes. I thought about waking him up but then thought against it.

"I'm sorry Jackson," I whispered and kissed his cheek. I quickly ran outside and shifted into my owl. I flew up and started flying in the direction of where they were coming from.

When I was close, I flew in the trees and landed on a branch. I waited until I saw 300+ Rogues walking towards the pack house. I looked around but didn't see Rasputin anywhere. Where is he?

I looked around again and turned just in time to see a vulture flying towards me full speed. I didn't have time to fly away as it's talons grabbed me. I squeaked as it flew down, with the Rogues looking up at us, and smirking.

We flew for a couple minutes until the vulture dropped me down on the ground. I squeaked again as it flew away and landed on something a few feet away.

I looked up slowly and the first thing I saw was feet. My eyes widened when I looked up all the way. There was a guy, no doubt in his 40's, smirking down at me. He had brown hair and one eye was brown while the other was blue. He had a scar above his left eye and above his lip.

"Well, well, well. Look who we have here," He said and did an evil laugh. "Hello Emma. Now where is that little mate of yours?" He asked and looked around. I did my best growl since I was still in owl form and he laughed. "Aw, did I upset wittle Emma?" He asked in a baby's voice.

I growled again and he laughed. My anger grew at him and then I shifted into my wolf form. I snarled at him as he stopped laughing immediately.

"Oh silly little Emma," He said with a chuckle. "You can't beat me. You are so outnumbered," He said. I growled and lunged at him but right when I was about to sink my teeth into his neck, I got tackled.

I yelped when I hit the ground and quickly looked up. I saw 5 Rogues above me, growling at Rasputin. Confusion crossed my face as well as Rasputin's.

"What are you guys doing?! He yelled at them. The smallest out of them whimpered but stopped when the biggest growled at her (I'm guessing).

They growled again and then I jumped up when the 300+ Rogues started closing in. I growled at them and we all got in a circle.

"ATTACK!!" Rasputin yelled and they all lunged for me. I growled as well as the Rogues by me.
