Chapter Forty Seven

CHAPTER FORTY SEVEN

I ram myself into Hunter’s body, pushing him back as Lucas falls limp to the ground.

The wolves create circle around us and I hold them back. I can’t let them attack Hunter. Not till –

I can see Hunter’s wariness as they see them, surrounding us, snarling.

I glance at Lucas, my heart beating painfully.

He has to push out the poison himself.

I know that but it hurts nonetheless, knowing that he’s hurting.

Hunter gets to his feet and I stand in front of my mate whose breathing is unsteady. He’s stronger now so even as it kills me inside, I have enough faith in him to know that he will survive.

I see some of my pack mates try to step in to intervene, but I snap at them.

Stay back.

This is my fight.

Hunter lets out a howl, his wolf sneering at me.

I can feel a smaller figure approach me from the side and without missing a beat, I lunge at Valerie, my teeth closing around her right arm which is holding the knife.
