The brave kid didn’t hesitate, and he did just as I’d told him to do. By the time I faced my enemies again, Hazel was sending another orb at me, but this time, I didn’t have a kid to protect on my back. I only needed to make sure he didn’t get hit with any magic.
I swiped the still-flaming blade through the air, sliced through the dark sphere, and then winced when the fucker exploded.
Tiny flickers of dark magic landed on my arms and chest, but thankfully, my legs were covered by the teeth—and apparently magic—resistant pants.
Fuck this. I was never going to get close enough to Hazel on two feet to use the daggers. It was time to show them what a true wolf was capable of.
The weapons went back to their sheaths, and I could hear several sets of feet running away from us. Ones that I hoped were currently rushing Sammy to safety.
My shift came fast and painlessly, then my wolf roared with ferocity as we landed on four flickering paws.
Based on the widening eyes of Johnathon, he either hadn’t heard about my magical wolf or he had assumed the details to be exaggerated.
“Kill her,” he spat, shoving Hazel forward.
I still wasn’t sure what the entirety of Johnathon’s endgame was, but if he sought to be Alpha Supreme and wasn’t willing to fight me himself, he’d already failed.
This House would chew him up and spit him back out. Again.
Stupid fucker for thinking otherwise.
Hazel’s circling hands brought my focus back to her, but I wasn’t afraid of her magic.
I charged forward, my stride lengthening until I was only a few feet away from the bitch.
She lashed out with tendrils of ebony and charcoal magic, but the lighter energy around me blocked the worst of whatever she was doing.
Shit.If I’d known my wolf had been capable of that, I’d have shifted as soon as I’d seen them, but it wasn’t like we’d had magic to hit me with while testing the capabilities of my wolf.
She screeched in frustration as she backed up, but I wasn’t stopping.
I swiped a paw out, cutting through her thigh and destroying her femoral artery.
Survive that, bitch, I thought.
Hazel fell to the ground in a heap, and her darkening eyes went to Johnathon, but he wasn’t looking at her. His silver eyes were focused solely on me.
My wolf growled, baring her teeth at the fucker as if to say, “Come and get me.”
“I’ll end you myself, then,” he said before shifting into a pewter-colored wolf with black paws.
I felt rather confident there was little chance of that happening…until his wolf began to grow in size then plowed right into me.
Damn it!That had hurt like a mother fucker.
I was pretty sure that hit had broken a bone or two, but my wolf wasn’t easily deterred. We got up and refocused on Johnathon. So what if he was nearly the size of a car by the time he’d stopped increasing in size? We were fast and smart and motivated.
Highly fucking motivated.
His large paws echoed over the forest floor when he came for me again, but this time, I wasn’t distracted by the hulking wolf.
I ducked and slid beneath his underbelly, digging my claws into his stomach. However, given his ridiculous size, I’d barely drawn blood.
The asshole must have been spelled. There was no way his natural wolf was that big, but there was no time to overanalyze things that were trying to kill me.
I just had to figure out where his weakness was.
He moved around me, foaming at the mouth while his glance moved between me and Hazel.
