Okay, it looks like most of you prefer first-person pov, so that's what I'll use in my next book. I'm sorry I only got one update this week, even though it's longer.

ALPHA LEDGER’S POV: A few minutes later, I was in wolf form between the borders of Waning Moon and Nearside, and Cyrus trotted up to me. Our wolves rubbed up against each other, sniffing. We let them play for a bit before shifting to our human forms. “Hey,” I said. “Hey.” His voice sounded off.
