Half-hidden in the trees, a werewolf paced her.
A hot ball of anger and shame lodged in Chloe's throat as she ran along the dirt track through the forest. Bad enough Coach Wharton had tried to excuse her from training on the ground that she couldn't keep up with the others, but now he'd assigned her a babysitter?
Humiliated, she put her head down and increased her pace until her feet flew down the trail, crunching on bright yellow leaves, until her lungs heaved and a bright stitch of pain appeared in her side. But she neither lost her shadow nor caught up with the rest of the Pack. Still, she kept running, pushing her body to the limits. Werewolf limits. Chloe had all the extra werewolf strength and agility, her senses were keener than her townie classmates and she'd had no difficulty qualifying for Track. But her fifteenth and sixteenth birthdays had passed, and she still had not Changed.
