Colt
“THAT WOLF IS REALLY starting to creep me out,” Brom said.
Colt glanced at Brom, who was eyeing the black wolf in the distance as
they walked. The animal loped alongside them several yards away at a
quick pace as they trekked through the rocky terrain. When it looked over at
them, its eyes were like glaciers in a deep-blue sea.

“The thing’s been coming and going since this morning,” Colt finally
said. “It’s just now creeping you out?”
Brom shrugged. “Either it’s hungry, or it’s determined to lead the Legion
to us.”
Owen let out a laugh. “It’s not a Horwolf. I think it just wants to help
us.”
“How do you know that?” Gilda asked, dark eyes wide. “Did it tell you
or something?”
“Well, no, but so far, it’s only following us. If it wanted to attack, it
would have already, and if it has a Core Wielder as its master, it would’ve
left by now.”
“Just because it’s sticking around doesn’t mean it won’t leave when
we’re sleeping,” Gilda pointed out.
“Then we should kill it.” Brom halted in the grass and unsheathed his
sword.
“No!” Owen grabbed Brom’s arm and glanced back at the wolf, who
veered away from them at the flash of steel. “You scared it!”
“Well, if I don’t scare it away, I’m going to kill it.” Brom shook his head.
“This is a huge risk, Owen. With that wolf following us, there’s no telling
how long it’ll be before those Wielders catch up.”
“I’m telling you”—Owen let out a breath—“it’s not a Horwolf. Those
creatures are already dead. The Core reanimated them somehow. That’s
how the Wielders are able to train them so well. Those animals just do what
they say because they have no choice. But the wolf following us is not like
that. I can sense it. It’s alive.” When Owen glanced back at Colt with worry
in his eyes, Colt hesitated.
Brom was right; it was a risk. Colt had helped Gilda and Brom cut down
several guards back at the prison in Covehaven, and Colt had killed one of
Milarc’s councilmen to save Owen. This alone worried him, and he
wondered how long it would be until Legion soldiers thundered after them,
hot on their trail. All it would take was one Horwolf tracking them. But he
also knew by now that Owen relied on his Astran ability to sense good and
bad energies.
Colt nodded, his eyes softening on Owen before he glanced at Brom and
Gilda. “If Owen says it’s not a Horwolf, then it’s not a Horwolf. If it tries to
attack us, then we’ll kill it.” He stared at Brom. “But, until then, there’s no
harm in letting it tag along.”
Brom and Gilda muttered something before picking up their pace again.
When Owen came up beside Colt, Owen mouthed a “thank you” at him.
Colt’s lips twitched, turning up slightly, and his chest pulled.
He eyed the wolf again as it followed them from a distance.
