A Gift from the Goddess
Chapter 16
Chapter Sixteen
Panic swept through me.
What had I just done? I‘d been so caught up in a stupid argument that I hadn‘t even noticed Myra arriving. My emotional reaction was possibly going to cause the death of an innocent girl.
Cai and I both immediately jumped to our feet and scanned the area. Straight away, we saw the four wolves surrounding her, just like they had in my vision. And though I was relieved to see her alive, inside, I was tormented, reliving the horrific sight I‘d seen in the classroom all over again.
I knew that at any minute now the brown wolf was going to jump and kill her within seconds; her blood being spilled for no good reason. Truthfully, I wanted to run, to break down, to give up…anything other than having to witness her die again.
But I had to keep going.
“Take down the brown one first!‘ I yelled to Cai, snapping myself out of my fear.
He didn‘t even hesitate as he jumped from the bushes quickly, beelining towards the largest wolf.
The four wolves looked up, surprised to see that someone was charging at them, but they were too slow t o react.
Cai immediately tackled the brown wolf to the ground and they began a rolling dance for the upper hand. The other three immediately began to circle around the fight, waiting for an opportunity to take cai down. They snapped and growled at him as they paced, but he was too quick. He evaded them easily and wasn‘t giving them any openings.
I took this opportunity to run to Myra whilst they were distracted. She was on the ground, clearly traumatised by the situation. Her whole body was shaking, trembling to the point I was worried whether I‘d be able to get her to walk. This was probably the last thing she had expected when she came into the woods today.
“Myra,” I whispered, gently shaking her shoulder.
She looked up as if I‘d just shocked her with electricity and immediately jolted back from my touch.
“Myra, shhh,” I said, putting a finger up to my lips.
Recognition finally crossed over her face as she realised who I was. Immediately, tears started to stream down as she grabbed at my clothes, pulling me into a hug.
“No, not here,” I whispered, gently pulling away. “We need to get to safety first.”
Myra nodded her head shakily and I began to support her weight as she got to her feet. I could feel her body quivering against mine as a cold sweat formed on her skin. She was going into shock, her legs struggling to walk with each step, but I needed to get her to safety as quickly as possible. I needed to get back to help Cai. He was stalling for time but I knew there was no way he would be able to handle all four by himself for long.
