Rory took the opportunity of having his back to her to observe his tone body. There was no denying his handsomeness. His back was toned and defined, perfect line of muscles drew her attention to his firm backside. It was so tight, she probably could bounce a quarter off of it. The thought cause her to chuckle.

"What's so funny?" He called out.

"Nothing, nothing." She said a smile on her face. "Ok, its safe for you to turn around."

Quickly shifting into her fox she was ready for what ever he had planned. His brown wolf stood tall in front of her, his fierce eyes watching her. She couldn't help but lower her eyes at the Alpha before her. She knew he didn't require her to submit but she couldn't help her instincts. 

A nudge to her face caused her to look up, Kole towering over her before starting to nuzzle up to her. Returning the affection, she could feel the comfort and love fill her up.  It was a strange feeling for her because for the first time she felt accepted.

"Of course you're accepted, Rory." Kole's voice came across her mind, causing her to jump in shock.

"Kole! I can hear you."

" I can hear you too, it means you've accepted the pack and accepted me."  She could hear the happiness in his voice as he spoke.

"Of course I do." She nibbled on his neck. They stood together before going for a run. Kole led her to a clearing in the woods, right next to the stream, such a peaceful environment.
Rory took a drink from the stream, the cool water refreshing, before she felt a shift in the air.

"Kole?" She said nervously shifting slightly so she was beside him. "Something's changed."

"I know, I feel it too." Kole admitted his eyes scanning the edge of the woods. Kole could feel Rory cowering into him, fear of what they couldn't see. A rustle of the leaves was the only warning they had before three rogues launched into the clearing. Kole couldn't help but curse.
He sent out a howl before snarling at the closest rogue.

"Stay close." Kole said, unwilling to let Rory out of his sight in fear that a rogue would go after her. Kole stood his ground against the rogues but even being as strong and trained as he was; he couldn't fight all three at once and help was too far away. He had been able to get jaws around the smallest rogues neck, and with a sickening crunch he was able to eliminate one.

Rory tried to stay as close to Kole as she could, but she feared about getting in the way. Terror quickly filled her body as she watched Kole get swiped at by one of the rouges claws. His stumbled caused the rogue to get the upper hand. Unable to watch the two wolves gang up on him, she leapt into the battle with little thought. She latched onto the rouges leg, her mouth filling with blood as her jaw locked in place. Sooner than she hoped, the rouge was able to toss her off, sending her rolling across the clearing landing on her side with a yelp.

The rouge who's leg she bite, turned on her in rage, its yellow eyes staring into hers with victory. Just past the approaching rouge she could see Kole was still in a battle with the other, leaving her an open target.

"We're almost there, hold on Rory." She heard Peter say through the pack link but her mind was blank with worry. She had no one to help her and it scared her. She would be no match for this mongrel. Rory tried to push herself up, but her body was in protest, her side sending shooting pain into her arm and back. Something had to have been broken in her fall, she couldn't move at all. Closing her eyes she waited for the bite that would end her, but it never came.

A shift in the wind caused her to open her eyes, and she was surprised to see black fur standing in front of her, two other wolves attacking the rouge.
