“Hopefully, they’ll wake up if they need to potty,” Savvy said.

Rory laughed. “I’m going to catch up on some paperwork. Thanks for hanging out today.”

“I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.”

The night air called Savvy and drew her out. Cassia flew around her, talking animatedly.

“I’m just glad that the people at the museum didn’t see me. I would have never escaped.”

“I would rescue you. Besides, they would know that they didn’t have any dragonflies there.”

“But they would want one, especially one as pretty as me,” Cassia said. After a minute, she said, “You like him, don’t you.”

“He’s a nice man. Of course, I like him.”

“There’s more to it than that. I saw the way that you guys looked at each other. I could almost see the electricity passing between you.”

“Nonsense. He’s my boss. I’ll admit that he’s sexy, but that’s all there is.”

“Yeah, right,” Cassia said. “You’d jump into bed with him in a hot minute.”

Savvy just shook her head. They had wandered into the wooded area behind the house. The leaves on the tall trees danced in the breeze. Pine cones and needles littered the ground, while the stars and moon glittered in the sky. She breathed in the sweet, cool night air and enjoyed the sense of peace that surrounded her like a shield.

Suddenly, a chill went down her back, like someone had run an icy finger down her spine.

“Do you feel that?” she whispered to Cassia.

“Yes. We better go back.”

Just then, three wolves stepped out from behind the trees, surrounded her, and shifted.

“Look what we have here,” one of them said. “A pretty little girl all alone in the woods.”

“I don’t want any trouble,” Savvy said, gearing up for a fight. “Just leave me alone.”

“We’ve got no beef with you, gorgeous, but we want you to give a message to your boss for us,” the second man said.

“I’m not a messenger. If you have something to say to him, be man enough to say it to his face.”

“Oooh. The girl’s got some mouth on her,” the third one said.

“Well, what kind of men are you? Three against one woman. That doesn’t say much about you, now does it?”

“You’re lucky we’re in a hurry. We sure would like a taste of you.” The first one grinned.

“I guarantee you wouldn’t get far,” Savvy said with a grin.

Her lack of fear seemed to unsettle the men a bit because all but one took a step back.

“Tell Rory that there’s a new club in town, and the Griffins need to watch their backs.”

Before Savvy could react, his paw shifted to a wolf’s and he scratched her face. Then, they all three shifted to wolf form and ran off into the woods.

“Your face is bleeding pretty badly,” Cassia said.

“I have some salve that Beth made,” Savvy said.

“Why didn’t you evaporate them?”
