Scared, I was running for my life. I had to get out of here. The trackers would catch me if I stopped to rest, even for a second. My calf muscles were burning, but I had bigger problems on my mind. I tried to mask my scent so it would be harder to find me, but trying to do that only cost me valuable time I could have spent running. That lost time is the reason I almost got caught. For now, the only thought on my mind was to run. Jackson Taylor has been running for almost 5 years now. Running for so long has made him paranoid. Will he be able to trust a woman that he hardly knows to be able to save his race of werewolves? Or will he be putting his trust in the wrong places?
