Not in this lifetime

Leticia froze on the spot, her eyes widening in horror. She couldn't look away from the now dead bodies.

The remaining of the creatures stood at alert, reading to attack their new company but they didn't stand a chance. A shadow passed them and two more dropped dead.

The last one was already shivering now as he dropped to his knees. He knew who it was. That shadow was everywhere, always killing.

Leticia watched in daze as the last creature dropped to his knees in surrender. She couldn't even feel her heart pound anymore. It was as though it has stopped beating all together.

A dark shadow morphed into a tall man with broad shoulders, his back to Leticia and she could hear a low, predatory growl, "You dare touch my mate...."

The creature turned white in pure horror but before it could get any rubbish out, the shadow killer growled and shoved his hand into it's chest, bringing out it's heart along with it. It fell dead.
