The Cry of the Wolf

Adelaide, a homeschooling mother, had no idea that her life, and those of her children, were about to change when she receives a hand-carved metal necklace from her sister. Without giving the necklace, or the unique pendant, much thought, Adelaide is unaware that the handcrafted necklace is the source of her life-changing journey. After being transported back to 1600s Canada - a time of tribal warfare and the ever-present danger of disease - history comes to life as Adelaide must survive. Determined to find a way back to the present, Adelaide resists the circumstances she finds herself in. Chief Long Knife, however, has other ideas. The handsome warrior sees his new, instant family in a different light and is determined to win his captive's heart. The Cry of the Wolf is created by Angeline Gallant, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 79: DON'T MESS WITH THE CHIEF

Low voices reached their ears as they entered the wooden barricade. Voices that were so low it was impossible to make out their words. Gretjen scanned the faces of the warriors but couldn't spot Strong Oak, although she assumed he would be among the number surrounding them.

Shoulders straight, his chiseled jaw set in determination, Chief Red Hawk strode toward John, tossing the scalps onto the table.

"This should satisfy your thirst for blood," the chief snarled his eyes molten lead. His steely gaze turned to his companion. "And this..." He held up a scalp with long, loose curls for all in the room to see, "Is for you."

All color drained from Gavin's face as he recognized the silky blonde hair.

"Becky..."

A low rumble of laughter erupted from the chief's throat.

"A reminder when you see this beauty on your mantle, to rethink your actions. Dark Star's husband may not want to see your blood on his hands, but be warned, I am not Chief Long Knife. I do not forgive."
