Chapter Fifty–Eight
The second wolf paced in front of me, looking for a way in, but I stood my ground. I wouldn’t allow myself to fall and lose these two pups. I pushed forward, so it was my voice. “Listen, you two.” I waited until I heard their breathing to catch. “Do you….think you can…do me a favour”
“Alpha Amy?” The little boy’s voice hesitated. “Is that you?
“Yeah buddy, this is my wolf. Can you do me à favour?” I struggled to stay standing on my legs, so I locked my knees and focused on getting them out of here.
“Yes Alpha.”
“Good boy. Can you be a strong boy of me? Can you take your sister and run?” I wanted to look back to reassure him, but I knew if I took my eyes off the wolf, it would attack.
“Will you come with us?”
“Of course. I’m just going to make sure you get off to safety before I follow with you parents.”
“You promise?” His tiny voice made my heart break.
“I promise. I’m just going to make sure you are safe.” I tried to put so much into my voice. “Now go. I’ll make sure you get to safety.” I threw back my head and let out a loud howl, letting them know my urgency. “Go! Now!” I screamed as I charged the other wolf and I heard the pair run away.
“Stupid girl. You are going to die here.” The rogue crouched, getting ready to attack.
“That may be, but those pups won’t. That’s what matters.” I felt Megan pushing power toward Nix, so I pulled back to do the same.
We believe in you, Nix. And if we fall today, we fall saving those pups. I called to my wolf, and I felt her legs tense. She pulled all the power to her. Even knowing we were still losing too much blood, she rallied to buy those pups the best chance of survival.
“You haven’t done anything.” The rogue lowered himself and watched us. “Once I kill you, I will chase after them and once they are as dead as their parents, I’ll savour eating their little hearts out of their chests.”
“You won’t get the chance.” Nix stumbled and fell on to her side.
Get up! I screamed.
The rogue laughed harder and then jumped, aiming for our throats. Nix jumped to her feet, lightening fast–and lept for the other wolf. She snapped her teeth around the rogue’s neck and she bit down. Hand
She landed on her paws as the other wolf’s head went flying, but she tripped once again and sprawled over the ground. Nix lay on her side with Megan and me, reassuring her.
You did good, Nix. I called to her. I felt her heart break, our heartbreak, and I tried to take away that pain. It’s okay. We did what we came to do; we saved those pups.
But we won’t make it… Nix trailed off.
I had the best life with you this time around. Just being acknowledged was enough for me. Megan rubbed against me and I felt a tear fall.
You, we, did our absolute best. We saved those kids. I lived etter this time around, and I’m so happy I got to meet you both. I wiped my nose and chuckled. You were amazing Nix

Chapter Fifty–Eight
I’m happy I got to feel the wind in my fur this time. I could feel our connection grow weaker. The world grew dim. I’m sorry you never got to experience it this time, Megani.
There is always the next life, Nix. Always the next life. Megan and I felt Nix turn in. I was shifting back to my body. The fur pulled back and my bones snapped back into place. This time was a lot more painful than the first. I screamed as my body finished shifting and I laid in the dirt, panting.
