Leelo was only halfway home when she heard the howl. She’d foolishly fallen asleep below the pine tree. Now, her entire body erupted in goose bumps, and she could feel every hair on her arms standing straight up, like a lightning storm had just passed through.
For a moment she stood stock-still, wondering if she’d imagined it. Wolves never came this far up the mountain, and this one had sounded so close it could be on Endla itself. But then it happened again and again, and Leelo felt the sound in every part of her, as if this were a song she’d known all her life.
“Tate,” she breathed.
A sudden gust of wind blew past, making the trees around her creak like old, forgotten doors, and Leelo knew this time that she wasn’t imagining things. The Forest was speaking.
And a wolf was at the doorstep.
