Chapter 0783 Nina

The deafening roar of the crowd was replaced by agonized screams as chaos erupted around us. Bodies surged forward in a frenzied stampede, trampling over one another as they fled the arena in terror.

Overhead, the sound of a flurry of beating wings filled my ears. Mila had shifted into her dragon form and launched upwards after consuming several of her followers, causing a shower of rock and debris to begin raining down on us, but I didn't dare to turn back and get a look at her.

No, I had to press forward.

Without even considering the consequences that shifting might have on my pregnancy, I quickly shifted. I crouched, letting the wide-eyed Tyler climb onto my back amidst the fray. And once he was securely clutching my hair, I sprang forward.

In my wolf form, I easily weaved through the panicked masses, dodging flailing limbs and debris raining down from above. A sea of frightened people surged around me, most of which were headed in the same direction: outside. Anywhere but here.

God, how could I have let this turn so sour? The plan had seemed so simple, so straightforward, and now...

I had been naive. Once again, my lack of planning and experience had brought disaster raining down on us.

Failure.

Somewhere behind us, Luke's lightning crackled and sizzled, a beacon of hope amidst the madness. But it was all I could do to keep moving forward, my heart pounding in my ears as the world around me descended into pandemonium.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity of muscling our way through the twisting and turning passageways, we burst out into the open air. The blinding sunlight stung my eyes after so long in the darkness of the impossible palace, but we had made it. And so had many of the others.

Sliding to a halt, I gently deposited Tyler on the ground, my body shifting and contorting as I took on my human form once again. Tyler took my arm, wide-eyed, as a sea of screaming and crying people surged out of the cave, right into the arms of our pack and Kai's warriors.
