  Lily&#39;s Perspective
  After traversing the jungle for a while, Ethan&#39;s wolf halted, crouching low and gathering strength. I immediately leapt to his side, letting out a threatening growl from my throat.
  He was right to do so. Instantly, I caught the scent of an unfamiliar pack of wolves, and the smell of blood.
  “Alpha Ethan?” The wolves peered at us, their clothes torn and bloodstained.
  Each looked dejected and listless. What had happened?
  “Logan?” Keith recognized the familiar wolf. He&#39;d visited Kyle&#39;s pack before, though he hadn&#39;t met Kyle himself, but only his brother Logan.
  I quickly sensed something was terribly wrong. The number of wolves in their pack? I dared not speculate further. This was bad.
  “It&#39;s me, Keith.” The voice sounded pained, as if the speaker was injured.
  “I&#39;m Alpha Kyle.” Their leader stepped forward first, his voice heavy

  Lily&#39;s Perspective
  Moonlight was obscured by thick clouds, leaving only the scattered searchlights of the hunter base piercing the darkness,&nbsp;like the pupils of beasts surveying their territory. Ethan crouched behind damp rocks, his nostrils flaring. The air was filled with thick blood, gunpowder and... &nbsp;the painful aura of his own kind. 
  It seemed the hunters had returned with their spoils. They&#39;d captured so many members of Kyle&#39;s pack that the transport trucks were crammed beyond capacity, the wolves utterly helpless.
  “They tossed my kin around like cargo,” Kyle&#39;s voice echoed in my ear, strained with seething fury and bone-deep sorrow. The death of his mate, Lena, had transformed this Alpha into a blade thirsting only for vengeance.
  My hand rested lightly on Ethan&#39;s tense arm, the cold touch snapping him back to focus. “The defense map hasn&#39;

  Celena&#39;s Perspective
  “Celena, if it&#39;s too painful, you don&#39;t have to think about it. &nbsp;I can find it. Trust me.”&nbsp;&nbsp;Jacob held me tightly with concern. I hid in his arms, closed my eyes and said in a somewhat reversed tone, &quot;Uncle Dan&#39;s situation is not good. It might be with Stephen. He used to be Carl&#39;s most trusted deputy and it was he who did the experiments for me.&quot; &nbsp;It could also be someone else, but I think the most likely one is Stephen.”
  “Oh, and you must be careful,some passages in the dungeon have computer-controlled machine guns. Don&#39;t get hit by them.”
  I blurted out everything I needed to say in one breath, knowing it sounded chaotic. I was just recalling whatever came to mind.
  “I don&#39;t know how to comfort you, Celena. I feel like crying now.” Lily came over to console me, and soon everyone gathered around to h
