Chapter 158

Astrid POV

Seeing Tasha, Tracy’s wolf froze for a long time. It was as if she was expecting to kill me as a human but the table turned. Tasha dipped her head and let out a menacing growl. I could feel her loathe for Tracy.

‘I hate her, Tasha said to me. ‘I am going to finish her.‘ Her voice was so animalistic that I also got slightly afraid of her.

It was a small room and Tasha couldn’t maneuver much. Despite that, she charged at Tracy’s wolf with a deafening snarl. In a moment of indecision, Tracy’s wolf turned and ran out of the door that Xander had now opened and was crawling out. She jumped over Xander’s body, making him scream in pain. Tasha chased Tracy out of the door, jumping over Xander and making him scream all over again.

I knew why Tracy was running out. She never anticipated my transformation into a wolf, and now she must battle someone of equal or greater strength. Despite her best effort to flee, Tasha swiftly closed in and pounced on her. She bit Tracy’s flank, making her whimper in pain. Tracy turned to attack Tasha. With her jaw open, she charged at her nuzzle, but Tasha was quick. She turned sideways and then kicked Tracy on the side of her face. The force of Tasha’s kick was so powerful that Tracy stumbled and fell down, skidding some five feet away. Tracy let out a painful yelp, but she got up immediately and attacked Tasha.

Tasha wasn’t so well trained in fighting because she was a newly transformed wolf. However, her senses were keen. When she saw Tracy charging at her, she turned and ran towards the woods. Tracy followed her, but Tasha was simply too fast. Tasha came back to the clearing and turned for Tracy to emerge from the woods. The moment Tracy came out, Tasha leapt into the air and brought Tracy down in one strike. However, I was surprised when Tracy transformed back into her human form with Tasha’s jaw right over her neck. Tasha gave me my skin back.

“H–how come you are a white wolf?” she said in a gravelly voice, surprise and dread written all over face. “And when did Kael mark you?”

“Kael marked me on my birthday–the day I got my wolf.”

Her mouth dropped to the floor. “And you kept it a secret?”

“Yes, we did.”

Her eyes went behind me and suddenly she rasped, “I’m so sorry, Astrid! Please let me live. I just came to rescue you from Xander. He is the one who was stalking me. He harassed me, and when I didn’t succumb to his pressure, he devised a plan to kidnap you!”

I should have been shocked, but I wasn’t. I turned my head over my shoulder to see that Kael, Toren, Aiden, Logan and Kylie were standing behind us a few feet away, as I had instructed them.
