Frank sighs and rests his head on the counter. "Where will the thirty of us go?" He lifts his gaze to me.

I didn't tell Frank about my plans because if I did, I'd get locked in a cell so that I couldn't leave him. So I decide to escape when we arrive at the new pack and head south to California. Having a fresh start will be good for me, maybe I will forget about the gory attack that haunts me
