Wrap up wolves on time (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

package

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'wrap up' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'wolves on time' is the wordplay.
'wolves on' becomes 'pack' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'time' becomes 'age' (an age is a period of time).
'pack'+'age'='PACKAGE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for package that I've seen before include "Whole" , "Collected programs" , "This deal includes a number of proposals" , "Bundle of items wrapped for shipment" , "Wrapped consignment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
