"Why not?" I asked in haste and slipped right out of Neo's hold to grab and pull her forward.
Loki howled long and loud as if to make the sound into a siren to wake the people of the approaching threat. We'd outrun the threat by a solid minute, but no way would anyone be able to escape when the town was surely full of humans.
"There's some weird magic to it! It's made to destroy and won't stop unless it gets blood! Magic can maybe delay it, but even with us together, it won't work!"
"Blood." The simple word had me smiling. "NEO!"
My mate was surprisingly behind me, and from the look on his face, he knew what had to be done. "How much blood?" he asked.
"A lot," Aurelia stressed.
"Not a problem," he replied. "Let's begin."
Aurelia nodded and ran forward as she summoned her wand and began to speak in Latin. I was going to run forward too, but Neo hooked an arm around me and pulled me right back against him.
"Neo?" I hissed, and he forced my head back with a hand around my neck and kissed me all in one smooth movement.
"Frighten me again, Sweetness, and I'll make sure you're never out of my sight again," he literally growled against my lips.
"Aww. If we weren't about to be killed by an avalanche, I'd be so turned on right now."
I could hear Viktor groaning, while Dimitris sighed, Saint laughed, and I could assume Jayce was just shaking his head.
"I can't even be mad," Onyx muttered.
Neo let go of me, and we ran to meet Aurelia.
"Willow! Far right. Neo, in the middle. Conjure enough blood that the snow will look pink!" she ordered and specifically looked at me. "The spell isLe Re Bloodanda.It's the shortened form of the spell and will work fast, but it's draining as fuck, so be prepared to feel like shit!"
"Got it!" I declared and the three of us raised our hands up while I felt the others were further behind.
"Do we have a plan B?" Jayce inquired.
"Nope," Aurelia announced. "We fail, we're all dying."
"I feel like there should be a plan B," Milo muttered.
"I agree, but I don't think one plans for a magical avalanche to kill them," Saint acknowledged.
"Brace for it," Dimitris ordered, and silence followed to give us the moment to focus.
"Now!" Aurelia announced and the two of us screamed,"LE RE BLOODANDA!"
The surge of magic that escaped me was overwhelming, but I stood my ground as I gritted my teeth and forced the new energy to push outward toward the approaching threat.
Neo's eyes were closed while he began to take calming breaths, and suddenly he was pushing his hands outward - the action shooting out silhouettes of wolves.
Blood silhouettes of wolves.
They burst out of the palms of his hands, two at a time, which multiplied into eight the moment they hit the ground. They raced forward as their howls multiplied and multiplied, the sound so loud, it made the ground shake, just like the approaching wave of snow.
When it finally crashed into our protective shield, Aurelia and I gasped at the impact because it felt like it was colliding into our intestines. We both held our ground, and I surprisingly felt Loki behind me in his wolf form.
His forehead was pressing against my back as if to give me stability as I continued to stand my ground. I couldn't help but take a peek at Aurelia, and there was Onyx in his wolf form doing the same.
Aurelia noticed my gaze and nodded to me, her encouragement only fueling more energy through me as we began to funnel more magic into the spelled wall. Neo's blood wolves were crashing into the piled mass that was growing taller against our magic wall, but the snow tower was beginning to shift from white to pink.
I couldn't tell how long we kept going, my body beginning to shake with exhaustion. Even Neo was struggling, his breaths beginning to grow uneven, and both eyes wide open to extend his power.
