Chapter 123 Lachlan

• Walking alongside my cousin, we are heading toward the forest, our goal now in sight. I am beginning to feel hopeful. We had not done too badly. His little pup looked so fragile. We want to get him to the hospital as soon as we can. The weather may be warm, but I don’t want him outside for too long. He is swaddled in blankets and his mother’s warm embrace, but I am worried about him, and he is not even mine. Though he is a part of my family, and family looks out for one another.
• As soon as that voice came from behind us, my heart dropped.
• “Oh, and look who it is” the voice sounded so sure of himself, so cocky.
