Terror rips through me.

I stop rationing.

Power pours through our bond, and my legs nearly buckle beneath me. Rylan catches my shoulder for half a second before I force myself forward again.

“Darian.”

“She's slipping.”

“I know.”

“I can't feel her wolf.”

“Keep running.”

I send Arlene another surge. My vision darkens at the edges, but her heartbeat strengthens.

Barely.

"Take whatever you need."

Something finally brushes against my wolf.

Tired...

A sob rips out of me. "I know."

Sleep.

"Not yet."

"Darian..."

"I'm right here."

"Can't..."

"Yes, you can."

"Tired..."

"Take my energy."

"You... need..."

"I need you."

I pour more into her.

My body screams at me.

I don't care.

Silver Moon's scent reaches me.

Home.

I push harder.
