Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 12: Killer

Astrid's POV

Fear coursed through my body when I realized that this wasn't a simple attack. Someone ordered these werewolves to attack me. Who ordered them to kill me and how did they find out that I'm here? I held my breath and turned to my side when the werewolf tried to claw on my neck to go for an instant kill.

Adrenaline rushed through my body knowing that I merely escaped death there.

I pushed myself backward when the other werewolves started to appear one by one. They growled at me and bared their canines as they approached me like a predator.

I used my trembling hands to search the dirt around me. I tried to look for a rock or anything that I could use to defend myself from the werewolves who were trying to kill me.

I cannot die. If I die, my child will lose his chance to experience life. I don't want to be such a bad mother to him.

I stopped and my breath turned more fast and shallow when my back touched a tree. I also panicked when I did not find anything available near me that I could use to defend myself.

Having no escape, I could only close my eyes and raise my arms when one of them finally lunged for the kill.

I waited for the impact to happen, to experience the immense pain before life was taken out of me. However, that did not happen.

Out of nowhere, another werewolf jumped in and bit the other werewolf's neck in midair.

My eyes went wide as I watched how the huge black wolf tore a chunk of flesh on the werewolf's neck which killed him instantly.

The other werewolves who came to kill me started to back up when they saw what happened.
