Chapter 3

We were off the next day hunting when it happened. We smelt another wolf not very far away. We went to investigate when I saw her. She looked so lost I couldn't help feeling sorry for her. When our Ghost pinned her I thought about telling him to let her up (as second in command I could do that without getting hurt). However, I did not for I did not see her as fragile. I saw her as a strong independent wolf. As I smelled again I understood why she could not struggle. She was pregnant! If we were able to take her into the clan it would make our pack bigger and stronger. As I relayed my thoughts to Ghost I smelled a sick caribou. He immediately invited her into the pack and told me to lead the hunt as he could not smell the caribou. I raced off northward toward the smell. 20 minutes later we were at our spring den with a full caribou. Even though I was ravenous I let our newest pack member (Blossom) eat first as I felt pregnant wolves come before hungry. All was well as we settled down for the night.

A new day dawned very quickly. I was out in the yard waiting to be told to hunt. I was now the second beta as Whiteclaw had healed. Ghost gathered us around and gave the word to go. We were 5 minutes into searching for food when it happened. We all heard a snap and we looked around Whiteclaw was whimpering in pain! His back foot was in a trap! We tried everything to get him out, but nothing worked so we lay down beside him. Then somewhere inside of my brain I heard a tiny voice say,"Pull on both sides!" So I told Ghost, "It might be his only way out!" "In that case, we will try it.". Thus, we all started to pull on each of the sides 'till Whiteclaw could pull his leg out. We kept on hunting while Whiteclaw went back to the den. When we came home we were dragging 2 full caribou.
