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 43: THE NEW BABY

"Well, are you coming?" Brebeuf shifted to his other foot, looking up at Peter who towered over him.

"No, my people will not be joining you," Peter stated without warning, surprising the Jesuit. Noticing his clear discomfort, Peter continued, "The fort is for you and your men. We will not be caged."

"If you insist," Brebeuf shrugged, but his voice sounded more like a squeak.

Motioning to the others, he walked toward the fort, his belongings in a single sack.

The other Jesuits and Frenchmen followed, not stopping to look back. They had their fort, what more did they want?

Within the shadows, eyes watched...and waited.

Timing.

A wail interrupted the silence of the night.

"It's time!" Dancing Turtle cried out from her corner of the lodge as her husband and the other men stepped out into the night leaving the women alone.

Lightning, as Joshua was now called, joined Peter, rubbing his bleary eyes. "What's wrong?"
