group surrounding Olympia, I am actually relieved. I need something to do, someone to ask questions and right now she is my target. I shift quickly and move right into walking towards her without a missed step. My mates are on my tail, flanking me in their new diamond pattern. The rest of our team stays in wolf form ready to tear her apart if she so much as looks at me wrong. What they don't know is they'll never get a chance.
