HARMONY POV

A grayish colored wolf flew out of the trees at me with its teeth bared. I wanted to panic, I wanted to scream and run, regardless I am a wolf so trust me when I tell you it's a freakin scary sight!! I felt my wolf push me back taken full control, my body jumped to the side barely missing the teeth that made a sick popping sound when they snapped on open air. A feral growl broke the air making my toes curl, quickly I realized it was my own wolf, it was me.

With one quick motion my body was in the air dodging another attack, I spun clamping my teeth down on the other wolfs neck. Slinging my body weight in the he air I kept spinning until the skin in my mouth tore, metallic blood filled my mouth and a yelp pierced the air echoing off the trees. Quickly I released the other wolf landed on it's other side and ran as fast as my legs could move back towards the house, towards safety, towards my mate.

A blood curling howl ruptured behind me, I wanted to look back to see what was going on with the other wolf but my wolf just ran faster away from it. It felt like I was in a zone between reality and dreams, I felt my body moving, understood my wolfs thoughts but had no control of my body movements. Taken the moment I collected my terror and fear and focused on Carson. He had to be getting my message, he had to be on his way, he was my only chance, my only hope of getting away from this. A snap at my rear had me jerking back to reality. I could sense my wolfs fear and anger, she did not like being prey, she was the predator, a future luna. But fear was also a natural instinct and she knew she stood no chance against the large wolf that now ran just leaps behind her.

CARSON POV

Fear... Anger... Frustration... Worry.. Pure rage... Emotions whirled in my chest, my head some I knew were mine but the strong feeling of fear and anger weren't, they were my mates, they were Harmonys! Relief swept over me that was short lived, at least she is still okay enough to try to reach me, but her emotions field my rage that something was wrong, someone was after her. How dare they, I will rip them limb from limb for even daring to come near my mate. 'No one messes with my mate!' My wolf snarled and I completely agreed with him. I tried to focus on Harmony, I thought of good things, no matter how hard it was, I forced myself to think of peace, safety, warmth and I focused on her, anything to let her know I was coming, I won't stop until she's with me again.

HARMONY POV

The wolfs teeth were close, I could feel his breath ruffling my hair on my rear. My wolf quickly realized there was no way to outrun him, we were smaller, more agile we had to use that against him. Making a quick leap to the right turning away from the house, the safety that my inner voice screamed to go to. A rocky cliff stood yards away, I felt the sting of a scratch as my body jumped and brushed a tree to close, ducking under tree limbs, leaping over rocks. Slowly we were putting a gap between between us and the attacking wolf.

A whole between rocks laid a few yards ahead, small but big enough for a small wolf. The encouragement was all I needed, we picked up speed and leaped jumping through it. Rocks scraped at my sides, tearing flesh and pulling hair. My claws scraped the rocks pulling the rest of my body in relief was almost settled in before teeth sank in my back leg. I let out a howl that echoed through the tight rocks surrounding me. Ignoring the burning, I pulled my leg with all the strength I had causing the teeth to tear down my leg.

Then nothing, I couldn't look back, there wasn't enough room through the rock tunnel. But I heard the claws scraping the rocks behind me, he was trying to get in. My fear eased when I heard his growl get further away, not taken any chances I scrambled through the rock tunnel to the other side. Pebbles fell around me hitting the ground with loud clanks hurting my sensitive ears, dirt fell in my face and in my eyes. I wanted to scream but my wolf wouldn't allow it, we were going to have the upper hand. I reached the other side and snow landed on my nose, hope swept through me.
