The wolves advanced towards us with their movements predatory. They both had dark brown fur and the larger one took the lead. Rising to my feet, I stuck close to Praya, who positioned herself ahead, assuming a defensive stance with her limbs bent forward, ready to charge.
A vicious growl resonated within Praya as she glared at the imposters.
‘Can you tell who these wolves are?’ I asked her through our mental connection.
‘Jessica and Gerald,’ she answered, and I felt a sudden shock course through me.
‘Why are they here?’
I was met with silence at first, then suddenly, Praya’s growls intensified and her chilling, alarmed voice rang through my head.
‘They’re here to kill you!’
A chill ran down my spine, leaving me frozen in shock as Praya’s words echoed through my mind. Without warning, the smaller wolf, which I assumed to be Jessica, leaped in front of us, colliding with Praya.
