Going to the Shadow Pack was out of the question. If I went there, I'd be hurting Mark and his family. At this time, I can only hope that Mark will inform Connor about me. She said Connor would find me. I don't know how, but the Moon Goddess must have known the rest.
My first task, I suppose, will be to get Demus to show up. First of all, I need to take a rest and eat something. I realized that I hadn't eaten since the previous night and in the morning.
Demus was already weak because of the silver in my body. My wolf had weakened even more since he had not been able to feed since yesterday. I decided that the only way to get Demus to show up was to feed myself. With these thoughts in mind and the information that Moon Goddess gave to me, I decided to go deeper into the forest and find something to feed myself.
I stood up and walked deeper into the forest, taking one last look at Aurora's grave. The light was beginning to give way to darkness as the sun slowly faded from the tops of the trees. However, my stomach was grumbling. I couldn't hunt an animal because I didn't have a wolf. I didn't have any weapons either. That's why I came up with the idea of setting up a trap.
I tried to remember the lessons we had at school. I set a trap for as long as I can remember. After several hours, I was finally able to catch a bird. I didn't want to be caught by other creatures. As a result, I ate it raw. The grumbling of my stomach was at least temporally stopped for a while. I drank water from a nearby creek to alleviate my thirst.
Now is the time to locate a secure spot. I took a look around to see what options I had. Otherwise, I could become prey to the forest's other creatures.
In front of me, there is a very big and old oak tree. I could easily sleep on it because its branches were so thick. I could easily sleep on it because its branches were so thick. Furthermore, the leaves were so dense that anyone looking up would have missed me. I had to disguise my scent so they wouldn't smell it. I used to hide from my mother by chewing cardamom, mint, and cinnamon leaves. This would hide my scent and make it harder for her to find me.
The sky had begun to darken. I was pressed for time. I quickly discovered the herbs I needed. As I ascended the oak tree, I stuffed them into my mouth. The herbs numbed the inside of my mouth, just like when I was a kid.
I located a safe spot with two enormous branches in a V shape that I can lay at the intersection of. I had ascended further than I had anticipated. However, this was the safest place for me to be. All I had to do was be careful not to fall. The Moon Goddess had advised me to seek refuge in the safest possible location until Demus regained consciousness. I would do the same.
I listened to the night as I sat on the branches. I hadn't seen the sky, the moon, or the stars in over two years. This night will be the first night that I was free. I realized that it was difficult for me to feel the peace I felt here in another place. Freedom. My experiences, especially after my parents died, taught me the value of liberty. I needed to be a free man; otherwise, life would be pointless.
Today I escaped from captivity. In my case, an uncertain future lay before me. Could Conner find me? In what ways would Demus be useful to me? Is it possible to get my pack back? Will they take me seriously as their alpha? Or would they abandon me because I was too young? Will I find my Luna? Could I have a family of my own? Many questions are running through my thoughts. I have a lot...Ihhhmmm... I guess I'm falling off to sleep. My sleep was restless, a lot of questions without answers. I hoped the Moon Goddess would know the answers and be able to assist me.
