Blue wished to close his eyes to the horror being inflicted upon his delicate form. If only he could shut himself away from Lofgren's barbaric snarl, the carnal thrusting of his hips, the measured press of his calloused fingertips. To close his eyes and ignore, forget, to think of<i>anything</i>else to keep his sanity from slipping from his skull like water from a leaky faucet. Controlling fingers at his throat made this impossible, forcing Blue to remain in the moment, constantly struggling for a small taste of crisp, cool air. A bitter, metallic flavor lingered in his mouth, made even more unpalatable as Lofgren forced his tongue down Blue's collapsing throat.<br/><br/><i>I could've done it</i>, Blue thought, gagging at the taste of Lofgren's warm saliva.<i>I could've killed him now. Right now. I fucked up. I fucked up. I fucked up... <br/>
</i><br/>Blue lay frozen beneath Lofgren's tired, heaving mass. He sniffled, head turned away as he stared at the jagged edges of the rock wall beyond him. The light illuminated dust particles dancing in the air. He focused on these, quiet as he could be despite his ragged, disjointed breathing.<br/><br/>They were locked together now, Lofgren shifting uncomfortably inside. It would be a long while before the alpha's knot subsided and Blue would have any semblance of freedom again.<br/><br/><i>I'm going to smell like him, </i>Blue thought, his eyes burning as the words crawled through the muddy dregs of his mind.<i>I'm going to smell like <b>him</b>.<br/>

Growing up here, Stellan knew the mountains as well as he knew the winding roads that passed through the miles and miles of forests, but being an outsider wolf Eivind wouldn't be privy to the same information.<br/><br/>"Blue climbed up the mountain to try to get away and put more distance between 'em. I could smell Lofgren's blood, so wherever he is, he's hurt. But I don't know if he's found Blue yet."<br/><br/>He paused, noting the eerie silence coming from Eivind's end of the line. It unsettled him. Eivind had the potential to be a vicious, wild wolf even when calm. This was something else entirely.<br/><br/>"Sig continued to follow the trail. He'll be there. He'll find Blue."
