187 Escape

The shadow of the ferocious beast that flickered over Azura made him flinch. The king was like a monster from the legend. 

Daryn let out a guttural roar and leapt at him with dizzying speed. Azura couldn't dodge this time. Daryn snapped his jaws and then slashed across his chest. Bones cracked and veins ruptured as he ripped his flesh. Azura's shrieks filled the chamber. It was a gruesome display of gore. 

On the inside, Dawn heard the two beasts fighting as things got slammed or thrown around, equipment breaking, electricity zapping. She waited with a baited breath and a clenched jaw. "Give him what he deserves, Daryn," she whispered. She was sure that Azura was no match to her mate. She had desperately looked forward to him coming and saving her. Had she not been pregnant, she would have taken the chance to kill Azura.
