Chapter 111: Sound of Battle

Hale.

After Talon had called upon the pack and explained ev erything going on, the three of us stood as a united front, let ting our warriors know the battle was coming – the wawas coming-and with it, death, but we had to fight for what we loved.

All the warriors agreed, and they knew what was expected of them. They had been trained for this their entire life, and now that it was here, thewould not back down.

We separated the women and the children who were not part of the battle and prepared them for the underground bunkers that would keep them safe while war raged above them.

We knew what was expected. We knew exactly what we needed to do.

 

The only thing was actually executing the plan.

So, after hours of preparing for the worst and hoping for the best, the bunkers were ready, and those who would use them knew if the howl was sounded, to go straight there. Hopefully, we wouldn’t need them, but that was wishful think ing on my part.

As the sun sank below the sky, we sat waiting at the bor ders, all three of us, with our warriors, ready for whatever was to come.

Richard’s pack and two other small leaders had joined them.

This was a battle we weren’t prepared for after all, and as I watched the vicious snarls of ravaging wolves approach us closer, we shifted, preparing for battle. I didn’t understand why my Lycan refused to come forth at the moment.

But in the back of my head, he whispered, “not yet…”

The clashing of bodies and the scent of blood filled the air as their wolves clashed with our own. Somewhere in the mix of things, I was separated from my brothers. Their bodies were lost in the wave of wolves that battled around me.”

One by one, I tore through the wolves who came at me. Breaking one wolf’s neck and then tore through the throat of another. There was no way I would allow this pack to fall at the hands of our enemies, and from what I could tell, every one from my pack felt the same way.
