The journey to Mara's cabin was not far since it wasn't that far from her own cabin.
Roxy rode on Kaelen's back in his full Wolf form, gripping his thick silver fur as he tore through the forest with supernatural speed. Torian, surprisingly, kept pace, running alongside them in his massive white Tiger form, his paws silent against the snow.
Zarek had stayed home with the children.
When they skidded to a halt in front of Mara's cabin, the scent of distress was thick in the air.
Mara was groaning in pain. Roxy already pictured how much she was panicking right now.
Roxy slid off Kaelen's back. She didn't wait for him to shift back. She grabbed her medical kit (a satchel of herbs, clean cloths, and System-bought scissors) and walked into the cabin.
It was warm inside, heated by a central fire pit, but the air was heavy with the metallic tang of blood and the musk of a terrified shifter.
