Thanks to all my dedicated reviewers, especially Pearla and Hawkeh, who have stuck to the story so far all the way, and to the new reviewers, I hope you like the story so far.
Also, I have school starting really soon, so I won't be on as much as I used to. I'm going to leave you an excerpt of the next chapter. Enjoy!

"Don't leave now, boy." Skip said in a sharp tone. "You're still gravely injured."
"Get away from me!" Shadow said savagely. "How can you think that I'd stay with you, after you've lied to me all this time!"
He spun around to leave, but Holly stepped in front of him. "I'm sorry." She said, her eyes begging for him to stay. "Please, please don't go, Shadow."
In his anger he thrust her aside, growling at her, "How could you, Holly? I thought you were helping me uncover my past, but instead you were just burying it! Why?"
"That dog said that you had to go back. I didn't want him to take you away," she gulped. "I wanted to convince you that we're meant for each other."
"You can't force someone to love you!" He spat, and then came to a dead stop. "He said he had to take me back? To where?"
"Some sort of pack."
Holly whimpered softly. "But please don't go, I beg of
you!"
Shadow's face darkened. "Why would I stay with you and
your father? How do I know that you hadn't lied to me all those
other times?" Without waiting for a reply, he turned and padded out
of the warm barn and into the driving rain.
