Chapter 481: Hide Her

Music Recommendation : Wars Of Faith by Audiomachine

It was impossible...

Asher, Alaric, Griffin and Roman all had dumbfounded expressions as they stared at the majestic creature lying on the charred earth. Her fur shimmered in iridescent shades of deep amethyst and twilight violet, thick and sleek like molten silk.

For a moment, the wolf was so still they feared the worst until a soft whimper escaped her lips, low and pained. Then she moved, and that’s when they saw it.

Wings.

You have got to be kidding.

Massive wings stretched from her back, folding out with a low hiss. They were feathered, the same shade of violet as her fur, with glowing lines running through them like veins of light.

All four of the cardinal alphas stared in stunned silence. Just when they thought they couldn’t be shocked anymore.

It hit Asher then why Violet’s powers had been bound. If Angus had access to a creature like her, there’s no telling what he would have done with power like this.

At that moment, Violet’s eyes snapped open, glowing like molten stars, and pulsing with raw power.

But something else happened.

"Mate," Roman growled.

What?

Before any of them could react, a loud crack split the air as Roman shifted into his wolf and leapt into the crater, before any of them could stop him.

Roman’s claws kicked up dust as he rushed straight to her. Violet’s wings twitched awkwardly behind her, purple and regal, still foreign to her body. She looked lost, if not burned out. The fire inside of her might have burned out, but it sure left the ruin behind.

Roman felt the pain and the lingering fear from Violet as if she was still trapped in that nightmare of pain and he wanted to ease it.

So he circled her slowly with his tail lowered in submission, his massive green wolf brushing against her without forcing contact. Then he licked her muzzle, a soft, desperate sound rumbling from his chest.

Mine.

His wolf echoed in his head.

He nudged her chin gently, then pressed his side against hers. She flinched just a little but didn’t pull away. Roman let her feel his warmth, presence and heartbeat.

Mine.

He licked her again, this time under her jaw as a sign of comfort and claim. She let out a small, wounded whine.
