Ander - Part 1: Subchapter 22
22 "Banno!" Ander should have known it wouldn't be this easy. Of all the Wolves to come after them, it had to be _him_; the one Wolf who lived for no other reason than to kill, the one Wolf who could only feel alive by tasting the death of...
Ander - Part 1: Subchapter 21
21 They had only been running on for a short while when Kiana tapped Ander on the shoulder. "Do you hear that?" "Loud rumbling dead ahead? Yeah, I hear it. Sounds like we've nearly reached the river." Kiana rested her head against Ander's shoulder,...
Ander - Part 1: Subchapter 20
20 It was the smile that saved him. It was the first thing Ander saw, and he knew no other Wolf would be smiling like that. Even as the bowstring straightened out and the arrow shot forward, Ander shifted his aim. But even so, it was a very close...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 42
42 - anaaaaaaah!!" "What!? What is it, Devin!?" "This is stupid!" "_You're_stupid!" Kiana snapped back. Not the cleverest of comebacks, but she was far too fretful to think up anything more original. She hacked away at the thick underbrush, her...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 41
41 _Enka_. _It wasn't enough. It wasn't nearly enough. There was something missing, something vitally important, but I couldn't figure out what..._ That's what Father had said back in his tent. Before... before everything. Looking at it now, Ander...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 40
40 He'd see it occasionally, leaping through the mist, running through the underbrush, weaving its way between the trees. Sometimes it would stop and wait for him before darting on again. The scratches on its back were completely gone now. They...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 39
39 It felt like Ander had been walking for hours. He didn't know this path, but he could see the tip of the Cora through the gaps in the canopy, a hazy grey tooth pointed at the sun, shining down through the mist like a white hole in the sky. There...
Ander - Part 3: Subchapter 38
38 "Ander?" _Hezzi..._ "Ander!" _Hezzi!?_ Ander looked to the right, then to the left, but there was nothing. Just the wall stretching on for infinity, and a trail of blood to mark the way he had come, haphazardly zigzagging all over the place....
Ander - Chapter 7, Subchapter 33
33 They didn't go far before they came across a she-wolf sitting in the shadowy gap between two tents, hugging her knees to her chest and rocking back and forth, muttering beneath her breath. Her hands were soaked in fresh blood, and that was reason...
Ander - Chapter 7, Subchapter 32
32 Nilia knew, even before they crashed through the snow-speckled web of bushes at the edge of the basecamp, that something was wrong. She could smell it on the wind, the stench of smoke and blood. The sounds of many voices, broken by the storm into...
Ander - Chapter 7, Subchapter 31
31 Kiana pushed against the dead Wolf with all the crazy, panicky strength she could muster, gasping for air and expelling it again in hysterical half-screams. Her hands kept slipping off his blood-drenched neck and his face kept slapping onto her...
Ander - Chapter 7, Subchapter 30
30 Kiana barely had enough time to register the dirty, mangy fur and the dried splatters of blood across its bony knuckles before she was yanked right off her feet. She yelled and tried to pull away, but she wasn't touching the ground anymore, so she...
