Belonging Chapter 37
**Chapter 37** **Meelo** **Day 42** _Meelo._ _ _ My eyes snapped open and I sat upright in my bed. Seq was still asleep and breathing quietly with his back pressed against my side as he faced the door, so I knew he didn't whisper my name. I...
Belonging Chapter 36
**Chapter 36** **Seq** **Day 40** My eyes were barely able to stay open that morning as I leaned against the outside of my hut. Arguing with Meelo really pissed me off and I kept waking up throughout the night. Dreams plagued me of him and I...
Belonging Chapter 35
**Chapter 35** **Meelo** **Day 39** "I'm sorry for being such a downer," Seq apologized, as we strolled through the forest together in the darkness. I had hoped that taking a walk that night under the stars would have cheered him up, but so far he...
Belonging Chapter 33
**Chapter 33** **Meelo** **Day 39** ** **"I can't smell anything," After just getting out of Sera's hut that morning, Grix decided to send me where Callix and Isabel had been taken. He thought that, since I used to be a Kreq, I might have had...
Belonging Chapter 32
**Chapter 32** **Callix** **Day 35** ** ** _How the fuck did the Kreq find a place to hide all the way up there?_ _ _ We sat at the bottom of a tall foothill, which could have been considered a small mountain, I guess. The Kreq warriors felt that...
Belonging Chapter 31
**Chapter 31** **Seq** **Day 35** I sat on the floor next to Meelo in Sera's hut. While I updated him on what had happened that morning with Callix and Isabel, I noticed that his wounds didn't seem much better from the previous day. "We searched...
Belonging Chapter 30
**Chapter 30** **Callix** **Day 35** "Move!" a male jaguar with pure black fur and piercing yellow eyes ordered, as he jammed his small gun in my face with a scowl. If I had my gun or my knife, I would have gladly wiped that cocky look from his...
Belonging Chapter 29
**Chapter 29** **Seq** **Day 35** "Are you sure you're ready? You just got out of Sera's hut," Isabel asked me. She had obviously already forgotten that she was injured when the traders attacked our camp, but I tried to keep my tail from...
Belonging Chapter 28
**Chapter 28** **Seq** **Day 34** "You have to admit, it's kind of funny. One of us gets out of here and the other one gets put in," Meelo chuckled. Meelo sat up in the same bed that I was in, just earlier that morning. I for one didn't find it...
Belonging Chapter 27
**Chapter 27** **Meelo** **Day 34** ** ** Eirok stood with me in the middle of the snowstorm that made it impossible to see even two huts away. The wind slapped against our faces and we squinted our eyes to even look at each other. Eirok screamed...
Belonging Chapter 26
**Chapter 26** **Meelo** **Day 28** "So what you're saying is that not all of the traders are dead," Grix said aloud for Seq to hear him. Sera sat at her desk, holding her head with her arm as she intently listened. Meanwhile, I sat on the floor...
Belonging Chapter 25
**Chapter 25** **Rye** **Day 28** Everybody had already left as I brushed my cheek, where that damn snow leopard had scratched me. As I held out my hand to examine it, I saw a thin coat of red that was wrapped around my fingers. "Thanks, sis," I...
