Redemption (2011)
“He’d lost a lot of blood. Sophie was gone. Either she’d put up enough of a fight that the wolf hadn’t taken the time to make sure he was dead or the humans coming to investigate the gunshots had scared him off.
It was possible, too, that Adriano’s heart had actually stopped beating for a few moments. He felt half-dead. Groaning, he rolled to his side and dragged himself back to the mouth of the tunnel to hide until the search party passed through the area. He heard Sean’s voice but couldn’t tak...e a chance on calling out to him. There would be wolves in the search party disguised as his men, ready to finish the job if they found him alive.
By the time he’d recovered enough to move, the search party was gone. He didn’t know where the wolves had taken Sophie and it would only be a matter of time before they recovered the stone, even if it was in pieces. So he did the one thing he should have done in the first place. He went for help.
Whether the wolves were mercenaries or making their own play for power, Adriano didn’t know.MoreLess
