Chapter 57
Tyree's POV
As soon as the Luna opens the door, the smell of blood is overwhelming. It isn't old and stale, like you would normally smell in a dirty dungeon. This smells like someone just sloshed buckets of it down the hallway.
How is that possible? The door was locked. I look over at the Elder, who looks pale and if I didn’t know better, guilty. I send a mind link to Marco and Beta Lenora, letting them know I need backup. Honestly, the Luna can handle anything going on down there. Even if she wasn't one of the strongest wolves I've ever met, with her powers she can defeat any threat, but it’s my job to protect her, not the other way around.
My wolf, Slayer, paces in my head, "High alert, my man. This clearly ain't right."
"Agreed, Slayer. Let me know if you see anything. If memory serves me correctly, there isn't a whole lot of room to move down there. We won't be able to shift if there's an actual emergency."
"Ten four," he growls.
I let him come forward enough for my eyes to turn black and extend my fangs. Just one step closer to shifting if we need to.
"Luna, stand back," I touch her elbow. She looks at me, trying to hide her fear, but her eyes are wide and her breathing gets heavier with building panic.
"It's alright, Luna. I've got this," I reassure her and she steps back.
I look at the Elder again. He looks like he's about to bolt like a scared jackrabbit. I'm probably about to get fired for this, maybe even banished, but my wolf and my instincts are telling me not to let this guy out of my sight.
Goddess, forgive me. I pull my handgun from the holster and press it on his back. He lets out a little gasp and starts to look back at me, but thinks twice.
"W-what’sthe meaning of this?" he stammers like a coward.
"You first, Elder Randall," I growl at the old man, pushing him toward the stairs.
"I-I’m sure this i-isn't, uh, n-necessary," still stuttering over his words," probably just a leaky pipe or something of the sort."
