Ava by L.G.Savage (HeartBreak)

Chapter 34

Zeke felt the pain as the silver cut into his body, but Shadow didn’t care. He tried to shift but the silver already in his system stopped him. Thank the Goddess for that! The last thing anyone wanted was a deranged beast running through the campus.

Shadow managed a partial shift as Derek and Myles came forward with extra chains. He growled and snapped his teeth at them as he struggled against the chains. The smell of burn flesh was worse now, and the silver weakened him even more. But Shadow was stronger than most wolves. It would take more silver than that to keep him down.

“Release me!” Shadow growled again.

“Use your head, you maniact You will destroy everything he shouted angrily in his head.

It was the worst feeling, being trapped in his mind while Shadow did whatever he wanted.

Derek and Myles dropped their chains. Shadow was not their Alpha, but his power surpassed his father’s. His commands could bring even the mightiest warriors among them to their knees. Derek and Myles were strong, but they were no match for him. He watched in horror as they both approached and, with shaky hands, started unlocking and unwrapping the numerous chains around his arms, torso and legs.

Shadow didn’t wait for the last shackle on his ankle to be unlocked as he stood and broke the chain.
