NovelBookChapter 26 Chapter 26 Taking Away the Little Wolf Cub After another forty minutes, Violeta paused on a small hill, gazing into the distance where a red flag marked the finish line.
"See that? The finishing line is just over there. A mere two minutes, and we'll make it! "That's a relief Kaylee plopped down on the ground, massaging her tired legs.

Eagerly, she lured the cub with her food and water, cradling it in her arms.
The cub's whimpers caught Violeta's attention. "What's that sound? Did you guys hear it?" Kaylee swiveled around and spotted Jezebel trying to stash the wolf cub in her bag.
"Hey, Jezebel! What on earth are you doing?" Jezebel hesitated. "I don't know who left this little guy here. I felt sorry for it, so I considered taking it back with me." Upon hearing Jezebel's harebrained idea, Violeta was on the brink of unleashing a torrent of curses..
"Are you out of your mind? That's not a puppy! It's a wolf cub! Didn't I warn you? There are wild wolves in the mountains During the hike, Violeta was on this wild wolf hunt, carefully looking for any traces of those creatures in the area.
You'd see wild wolves in Mount Wilson from tto time, but not often. People would hike up the mountain regularly to scare them off, so the chances of bumping into them were pretty low for regular folks. But guess what? In Violeta's dream team, Jezebel turned out to be a bit of a scatterbrain. She mistook a wolf cub for a fluffy little puppy! Seriously? Ordinary dogs, guided by their instincts, would steer clear of wolf territory upon catching a whiff of their distinctive scent. The fact that Jezebel failed to discern the difference is a perplexing twist in this wild tale! "Dogs wouldn't dare sniff around where wolves have left their scent!" "What!?" Jezebel's hand did a shaky dance, causing the wolf cub to hit the ground with a sad little whimper. Exasperated, Violeta grabbed her bag with one hand and said, "Hurry up! We must pick up the pace now!" 1/4 13.09 Knowing that Mama Wolf might show up following the scent trail later, the girls didn't dare to dawdle, hastily trailing behind Violeta.

What do we do now" Violeta's face scrunched up, and just then, a distant howl from Mama Wolf sent shivers down the other three girls' spines, making them pick up the pace.
Sonya pointed fingers at Jezebel, "What the heck were you doing back there? Hugging the wolf cub? Now, we're all gonna end up wolf chow!" Jezebel scowled. "I thought it was a dog... Why blme? Violeta's the one who dragged us down this path. It's on her! We wouldn't deal with wolves if we took a different route!" Kaylee glared fiercely at Jezebel, turning her head, "Are your eyes just for show? You can't even tell a wolf from a dog, and yet you're blaming Violeta? She already warned us about the wild wolves nearby!" T..." Violeta cut off their bickering, "Enough! Let's keep moving! We're almost there, and then we'll be safel Getting surrounded by a wolf pack wasn't a joke.
Violeta might know how to run herself to safety, but she couldn't guarantee the safety of these three liabilities. The tshut their mouths and followed Violeta, hustling to distance themselves from the wolves.
What would normally take twenty minutes in a rush took them only ten, fueled by adrenaline. They hit the finish line, collapsing onto chairs, letting the tension seep away The instructors, waiting at the finish line, saw the four emerge from the bushes like their lives depended on it and hit the stopwatch, "Wow! Two hours and seventeen minutes, we've got a new record! But why'd you guys cfrom that way? Everything cool? Con, grab swater first!" Jezebel and Sonya were going to complain to the instructor about Violeta. Still, before they could say anything, the head instructor spoke up, and their eyes widened, "What! We're in first place!?! The instructor confirmed, "Yep, not only are you leading, but you also smashed the old record!" "We broke the record!?" Jezebel and Sonya exclaimed together, their excitement making them jump up and down.
2/4 "No way! Breaking the record means extra rewards, right? An extra ten grand on top of the original prize money!" The instructor nodded, Exactly too, you're looking at sixty grand and a single-person dorm spot" "Oh my god!" Kaylee was pumped, too, but she wasn't as over-the-top as Jezebel and Sonya
