Chapter 335: Husks

The beta staggered to his feet. His body was warped, and his face was unrecognisable now that his skin had split open to reveal glowing cracks across his skull. His voice had turned layered with something not his own, but it now carried the chaos they had been suppressing all along. The air around the banquet hall turned static, as if it had been turned on with something more than just the molecules of the air. The glowing lights on the ceiling flickered and turned into flaming torches; the marble pillars shifted into old and dilapidated wooden pillars.

"Magic," hissed his beast, sneezing louder than ever once the veil that had been covering the entire space disappeared.

"You cannot stop us. You cannot stop our lady! Every child that we have fed The Great One feeds her flame and power. Every sacrifice that was handed to her makes us stronger. Immortal. Kill one, and another one will rise from her shadows!"

Killian snarled. His eyes narrowed as he cut down another attacker. Their ash sprayed across the mottled stone like grey and black snow. "They sold their wolves. They have no souls... what kind of immortality does this man speak of?" He spat on the floor, his snout moving jerkily as he did that. "They are all nothing but husks. Hollowed in and out."

The beta growled as he lunged at him. His movements were wrong...he was too fast and stiff. Killian barely twisted in time, but the claws of the man still ripped past the fur and grazed across his flesh instead of his ribs. Fortunately, the lycans had bodies that were as strong as tanks, or else he would have gotten a rib or two broken. However, the strength of the attack still made his bones rattle.

The pack surged again, swarming around him and his enforcers.

Claws raked at them, tearing their skin and rattling their bones. Teeth gnashed near their faces, and the air started to thicken with the stench of decay and burning magic. Killian fought them hard; each strike reduced another to dust, but he could see that the Silver Dawn Pack was not going to go down. For every time someone fell, two more pressed forward. Their hunger was endless. This fight was now starting to seem meaningless.

witch was not going to take him down; there was no way he was going down. Not when these people have the craziest idea of making him into a sacrificial goat. Just as one of the husks lunged at him, Killian feinted to slip, and the man pivoted fast enough to
