the way back to the motel, I called Ted and gave him a brief
overview of what had happened and gave him the killer's address.
Calling Adam next, I left a message on his voice mail. Once back at
the hotel. I took a long hot shower and then fell face first into
the bed.
    Loud pounding on the door
woke me up. I checked my sides and was pleased to see my wounds
were healing up nicely. When I got home, I would have to do some
heavy duty healing chants. For now the tattoo was doing a fantastic
job on the wounds by itself. Opening the door, I stared down at the
short chubby-manager standing there holding a box.
    “This came for you.” He
said with a leering smile.
    I had forgotten to put
clothes on before opening the door. With a snarl, I grabbed the
package from and slammed the door closed in his fat, ugly face. The
box contained two bottles of medication. Thank you Adam! I can be
home by tomorrow morning. Sweet!
    I went back to
bed.
    The moon bathed the Black
Panther in its silvery light as she lay in the grass watching the
activity die down for the night in the big house. Only after the
last light was turned off, and the occupants settled in for the
night, did she move. Creeping silently she approached the back of
the house. She began climbing up the wall towards the third-floor
balcony. With a massive leap, she landed on the balcony and stepped
softly up to the double glass doors. They swung open when she
pressed one large paw against them. She eyed the small sleeping
form in the large bed. Power slowly crept up the side of the bed
and slid towards the sleeping figure. The Black Panther shifted to
a human form as she slipped into the room, and I approached the
bed.
    “Wake up Linda.” I
murmured to the woman.
    The woman sat up slowly
and turned her unseeing eyes towards me. She was an adult image of
what Meg would have looked like later in life, and I hated her.
Removing the black leather collar from around my throat, I
carefully unzipped the pocket and poured pills into her limp hand.
Taking the glass of water from the bedside table, I handed it to
her.
    “Take them all.” I
commanded her, pushing just enough power to make her
obey.
    Not wanting anybody to
interrupt us, I walked over and locked the door.
    “You should have never put
your daughter in harm’s way.” I told her in a harsh whisper. “Why
did you do it?” I used power in my voice to make her answer
me.
    “I wanted Thomas back. She
wasn't supposed to get hurt. He was only supposed to hide her away
for a few days, just until Thomas came back. I never thought he
would kill her.” She started crying.
    “Stop it!” I commanded in
a rough whisper, and she stopped. “Finish your pills, Linda. You
need to go back to sleep.”
    “I am very tired.” She
told me dully as she lay back down.
    Sitting down at the end of
the bed, I waited for the medication to kill her. It didn’t take
long, and she was gone. The medication I had given her was
uncommonly strong and worked directly on the heart.
    I stood up at a sound
coming from outside the door. I took a deep breath and smelled
wolf.
    “My bond to you is
finished, killer and accomplices are dead.” I told Thomas in a
hushed tone, when I opened the door.
    We both looked towards the
bed.
    “Thank you, for Megan’s
sake.” He said to me in a quiet pain filled voice.
    I nodded and headed for
the glass doors.
    “McKenna, you can go out
the front door.” He said. “Are you well enough to travel? Do you
need help?” He stared at my wounds.
    “No, someone might see me
and yes, I can travel.” I gave him a small smile. “I hope the next
time we meet it will be a happier occasion.” I lifted a hand in
parting before jumping off the balcony.
    Shifting back to my
panther form before I landed on the ground and headed for my SUV.
It was time to go home, finally!

    The young black female
wolf had finally picked out her prey. It was a young female deer,
and now we were crashing through the forest after
