They weren’t doing me any good, so I unloaded my stash on him. “Be safe.”
Bright bursts of magic were flaring all around me as wolves and witches fought. I tried to find Claudia but it was chaos.
Where in the hell were my fucking jars?
I spotted Dastien’s gray and white fur. The battle had taken him farther away than I’d thought. If something happened, I wanted to be closer to him. I took a breath and started across the quad.
The earth rumbled again as Luciana’s chanting grew louder. I swayed on my feet, trying to stay upright, but something slammed into my side hard enough to break ribs. I hit the ground wheezing.
Whispers: Interactive StoriesMake your own choices and decide what happens next!
I couldn’t stop. I had to get it off me. I had to get to Luciana before she finished calling up that hellspawn.
Jaws snapped at my neck, but I managed to hold the mass jet-black fur off of me.
Oh shit. It was Mr. Hoel. It was happening.
I heard Dastien’s howl, and knew what was coming next.
I struggled to stop him, kicking at the mass of fur and muscle that pinned me to the ground, but I couldn’t move. I couldn’t breathe.
Mr. Hoel started to shift. It was disgusting. His face half wolf, half human. Grotesque.
This was why people were afraid of werewolves. Because of monsters like Mr. Hoel.
His claws dug into my neck. “You’re dead, mutt.”
“No!” Daniel shoved Mr. Hoel with all his weight, pushing the wolf away.
I gasped as the weight lifted.
Mr. Hoel snarled, swinging his claw-like paw. I watched as if in slow motion as Mr. Hoel’s razor-sharp nails went through Daniel’s neck like butter.
Hot blood rained down on my face.
Oh God. Oh God.
Daniel gave a sickening gurgle as he slowly crumpled.
My heartbeat thundered in my ears. It was all I could hear as Daniel hit the ground.
This wasn’t supposed to happen. I was the one who was supposed to die. Not Daniel.
Mr. Hoel, still frozen in his half-shifted state, snarled at me. “You won’t fight. That’s an order.”
For a second I froze. I couldn’t move. His alpha powers had worked, and I couldn’t disobey. He stared at me, his claws dripping with Daniel’s blood.
Then something amazing happened.
My whole body burned. My vision went white, blinding me, and my back bowed up from the ground like a million needles pricked my skin. But it wasn’t a bad thing.
This was good. So very good.
Cherie! Move! Now!
My powers. They were back.
If Claudia was the one who’d just broken the jars, I owed her big time. But I didn’t have time for thanks.
Luciana’s chanting grew louder and I spun toward her. The light around her was gone. Her back was to me, but I knew from the way her chanting had grown frantic, she was pissed.
