Defy The Alpha(s)

Chapter 581: .... Died Here.

Finn let out a strangled sound of agony, collapsing to the floor, clutching his crotch. The dagger slipped from his hand as he writhed in pain.

Zara didn’t waste time and bolted for the door. But just as she pulled on the handle, a whistling sound ripped through the air and before she could react, a searing pain exploded in her back.

She screamed in pain, her body slamming against the door. The silver-laced dagger protruded from her back and a wave of burning agony coursed through her veins.

That little bastard.

Behind her, Finn staggered to his feet, his lips twisted with satisfaction.

"You’re getting old, Luna Zara. You should’ve run faster," He taunted her.

With her lips pressed together in grim determination, Zara reached behind her, and grabbed the dagger’s hilt.

"Ahh—!" she groaned, her teeth gritted as she yanked the blade free from her back.

Hot pain seared through her body, and her vision became double but she forced herself to stay upright. Blood stained the spot, some trailing down her back.

Zara turned to face Finn with defiance. She bent her legs, squared her shoulders and grabbed the dagger firmly this time. She might not have her wolf, but she still had her will, and that was enough.

Finn saw her fighting pose and threw his head back with a mocking laugh.

"I don’t beat women," he sneered, "but for you, Luna Zara, I’ll gladly make an exception."

Zara didn’t flinch.

"Come then," she hissed, her voice like steel. "Let this old woman teach insolent pups like you a lesson."

Finn’s lips curled into a dark smile. "We’d see."
