“She’s hurt–she’s been running so long her strength should be spent. Split up and search outward from here!”
“Remember–alive. The employer said it: catch her and you’ve found Alpha Henry’s weak spot!”
A few men nodded and moved. The leader thought for a moment and walked toward the blood–stained cloth.
But his foot suddenly struck something. With a sharp whoosh, a long, sharpened branch flew straight for his face!
In the flash of an instant he turned his head and avoided a fatal strike, but he screamed and clapped a hand over his left eye.
Although he dodged, the pointed branch had still ripped into his eye–tearing a deep, bloody wound. The left eye was a mess of blood and torn flesh. The man in black stared at his bloodied hand, feeling a ragged, agonizing pain spreading from the socket; his howl echoed through the
trees.
“Ah! Aubrey, I’ll kill you!”
Aubrey stood not far away and, hearing his scream, smiled with something cruel in it.
She was a Werewolf Doctor and always carried some medicines. Today she had wolf–poison powder with her. Just now she’d smeared the powder on that sharpened branch.
Eyes are slow to heal on their own, and with the wolf–poison mixed in, if the werewolf’s wound wasn’t treated by a Werewolf Doctor quickly, that eye might never recover.
“Boss! Are you okay?”
The other three crowded around. In the dim light, dark red blood ran between the man’s fingers. His hand trembled and his teeth ground together; the pain was unbearable.
Someone hurriedly produced medicine to bandage him, but when their fingers brushed the wolf–poison they recoiled from the sting and cried out, “Boss, it’s wolf–poison! You need a Werewolf Doctor to treat your eye right away!”
“Even going back might not save it! The journey will take too long!”
“What can we do then, boss? Your eye-”

The man in black clenched the bandage around his eye, gritting his teeth through the madness of pain. He had a premonition–his eye was ruined. All he wanted now was to catch Aubrey and gouge her eyes out.
His underling hesitated. “But—”
Before he finished, the enraged man punched him hard. The man’s face twisted; pain had driven him nearly insane, and he had lost all reason.
“I’ll say it again.”
His remaining eye was bloodshot and his face trembled; his voice carried a cold ferocity no words could soften.
“I–want–her–dead!”
The group kept searching through the mountains. The deeper Aubrey ran, the wider their search had to spread. Even with thousands looking for her alone, it was still like searching for a needle in a haystack.
The sky grew darker. Heavy clouds smothered the moonlight.
Aubrey felt her vision fading, forcing her to find an open space with fewer trees. Maybe if she could climb to the highest point, it would be better.
Holding onto that thought, Aubrey stumbled her way up toward the mountain peak. Her failing sight made her stagger and crash into things, leaving behind plenty of traces.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to let Ella take over and shift into her wolf form to escape. But the Kajit virus in her body interfered with her transformation. If she forced the change now, it would speed up the virus’s spread. When she later returned to the lab for testing, it would disrupt her experimental data.
