Twelve Years later
Raven’s POV
I never understood the idea behind “The Hunt.” We’re not animals so why do we need to hunt? Besides, Luke is the one turning of age, not me. I don’t see a reason for Kane and I to be out here too, running around like feral creatures searching for our next meal.
It’s not like it’s real anyhow. Yellow flags line the perimeter of the woods, marking the area set up for the game. Most of the humans are willing participants, only some of them are forced to participate as a punishment by their masters.
Dad says we have to “Support our brother in his first hunt” though, which is dumb, but whatever. I do what I’m told most of the time. I have many secrets I keep from my parents, like the fact that I left my brothers behind and crossed the forbidden yellow flag
