How far would a werewolf go to help a friend?

Werewolves and dogs don’t usually get along, but Jordan Abbey has formed a bond with her elderly neighbor’s Rottweiler. So when Rex goes missing during a dog-walking mishap, she’s determined to return him home. With her abilities, finding him should be easy. Except there is one problem. The vampire lord of the city has declared she’s not allowed to shape-shift within the city limits of Rancho Robles.

Better to ask forgiveness than permission, or so Jordan thinks. But there is another issue she has to face - Animal Control. Rumors are getting around about wolf-like dogs wandering the city, and they respond quickly to panicky stray dog calls. Jordan knows how to be discreet, or so she believes.

Will Jordan be able to find her friend without sacrificing her freedom?

Rex is missing and Jordan decides she must find him, so she decides to go searching and against all orders to the contrary she shifts into a wolf to better be able to scent him.

Jordan learns the hard way that what she was told about shifting in the city was true.

When she finds Rex and he is happy to see her she realizes she can’t get a collar on him, and she can’t shift back to human and run naked through the streets. That is when the realization hits but not before animal control has her and Rex in a loop.

What happens is fun and not the usual deadly circumstances in the other books. This is a short story but a fun one.
