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 47: UNDER ATTACK

Crouching at his wife's side, Chief Long Knife pulled Dark Star into his arms, offering her his strength although he was painfully aware that it could never be enough. Yes, he was the children's father and yet, they had been her children much longer. His grief, surely, paled in comparison with hers.

"I want to go home," Dark Star choked when she felt the tender touch of his hands on her arms.

"I'm here," Chief Long Knife soothed, although his voice sounded painfully hollow and far away.

"I should never have come here, I just want to go home," Dark Star involuntarily pulled away from his embrace.

Chief Long Knife frowned in confusion.

Brown Sparrow's mother-in-law cradled her grandson as the young woman joined her friend.

"We can't go back to our village. It was destroyed..." Brown Sparrow bit her lower lip, casting the chief a nervous glance. It was because of him and his warriors they no longer had a home.
