Moth to a Flame

"You know, I have been wondering whether or not we should tell the pack about it". Ashton mumbled once Karolyn was out of sight.

A startled expression on Caleb's face confirmed that he was not exactly on board with this idea, "Why the hell would we do that?"

"So that we can have a backup?" Ashton mumbled in an obvious tone.

"You really think they will send backup?" Caleb scoffed, "What they'll do is call both of us back so that we are out of danger."

"But what if we get caught in all this mess? What if you get caught all in this mess?" Ashton's voice got higher by the moment. "What if…"

"Look, Ash, I get it. You are worried, but so am I". Caleb huffed. "I am too worried for us, but…" He took a deep breath, "Like she said, we are good at hiding, with our overall lack of scent. Besides, we can't keep running away everytime we face danger."

"I am not suggesting running away…" Ashton tried to explain but Caleb cut him off.
