My brothers were giving warning growls in alpha voices, but it was only reaching half of them.
I pushed strength back through to reinforce the alpha tone, and Derik released a howl that I heard from where we were.
I grinned as they all froze, whining and whimpering, howling back before sinking to their knees. The pack link was a frenzy of emotions, and I had to back away from that so I could concentrate.

I broke into a run, ripping my strength back and forcing my aching body to do what it needed to keep us safe.
I just hoped it was enough.
