    About this ebook

    Gray One makes the mistake of looking for the new predator, Man. With hounds tracking him and the new smells of gunpowder and cleaning oil, Gray One's first encounter with man, makes the timber wolf, hate. He has a scarred hip to show how the confrontation ended.

    During his healing time, the wolves kept finding a scent they could not identify. They decided to investigate before leaving the area. To add to the strange scent, was the known odor of Grizzly.

    Marguret F Boe

    I started reading in 6th grade and by 7th Grade, I was hooked on writing. Whether it be from my need to write, or entertaining my children, when they were small, I've always done some form of writing. Throughout my life, I find by keeping a journal, it can be used for stories and story ideas. The journal has helped me many times to clear my mind of clutter. My life is simpler when I write. When I'm able, I enjoy reading, puttering with flowers, inside or out, and enjoying my DVD collection of movies.

      Chapter One

      Why me? He crashed through the brush. The howling came closer.

      He was breathing hard and his legs were numb from running. Gray One had to lose the trackers.

      If he did not... He fought the panic that seized him.

      He almost missed the cave opening. It could barely be seen, because of the green foliage of early spring.

      His weary body aimed for the small opening and he wiggled through. In the space of a heart beat, the baying of the hounds were outside his hiding place. Moments later, man found his hounds.

      The forest was filled with traces and smells of the new predator. Their scent was on everything they left in their camps.

      Man was getting smarter at removing his scent, from traps, but the furbearers were getting smarter at recognizing and avoiding them.

      Dead carcasses of the animals were found where they had been skinned. The new predators did not kill for food, but took the animals for their skins. Their camps reeked of death to the survivors.

      Gray One and his mate, Shaded Wolf, had found several abandoned camps, within their southern hunting grounds.

      The wolves were curious about man. This was the first mistake, searching for the new predator in their mists.
