Chapter 27 : Amaya

*Wren*

It felt like I’d been shocked by a thousand kilowatts of electricity. I sprung out of the darkness, ready to take on that fucking Manticore. I wasn’t shocked that I was no longer in my wolf form but it was shocking that I was in Amaya’s bed.

When did I get home? And what happened to the fucking Manticore?

“Hey!” Asher said cautiously. “Take it easy. You’re safe.”

“Where’s Amaya? And the Manticore?” I asked frantically. If I was in her room that could only mean that she didn’t survive the attack. My heart was racing.

Asher pushed me back into bed. “She’s okay, I swear. She’s in the library.” I sighed in relief. “And she slaughtered the Manticore.”

I smiled proudly, Amaya never ceased to amaze me. I was thoroughly impressed that she took care of that thing, I didn’t even think it was possible. I thought we’d both die back there. I wanted answers, but mostly I wanted to see her. I began to sit up again but Asher was quick to push me back again.
