Chapter 274

-Grayson’s POV-

I hit the ground hard.

The impact rattled through my bones, my ribs screaming in agony as I tumbled onto the dirt. The world blurred, but I didn’t stay down. I couldn’t stay down.

A savage growl ripped through the night as Dylan lunged again, his massive wolf form a blur of dark fur and gleaming fangs. His breath was hot, thick with the scent of blood–Ava’s blood–and that alone sent a wildfire of rage tearing through me.

I didn’t think. Didn’t hesitate.

I met him head–on.

Our bodies slammed together with a force that shook the very ground beneath us. I felt the crunch of ribs–not mine. His. But he didn’t falter. His claws arced through the air, slicing toward my throat.

I ducked. Spun.

His fangs snapped inches from my face. I caught the glint of his eyes–burning, ruthless.

A snarl ripped through my throat as I struck, my claws raking across his side, splitting flesh, spilling blood. Dylan roared, his massive frame twisting as he retaliated, teeth sinking into my shoulder. Pain flared, white–hot and searing, but I used it.

I slammed my weight into him, forcing him back. The ground beneath us tore apart as we clashed, claw against claw, fang against fang.

He was strong. But I was stronger.

Lightning split the sky above us, a blinding flash illuminating the battlefield. The storm had arrived in full force. Wind roared through the trees, rain hammering down, turning the dirt beneath us into slick mud.

But I didn’t care about the storm. I cared about the bastard in front of me.

Dylan lunged, his claws slashing through my side. I barely flinched. Pain meant nothing. I lashed out, my paw crashing against his muzzle with a sickening crack. Blood spattered onto the ground as he staggered back, shaking his head, his breaths coming in heavy, ragged bursts.

But he wasn’t finished.

With a snarl, he leapt, his full weight crashing into me. We tumbled, rolling through the dirt, snapping jaws and slashing claws locked in a deadly blur.

And then–he pinned me.

Dylan’s massive paws pressed against my shoulders, forcing me down. His fangs bared, saliva dripping onto my fur as he loomed over me, claws digging into my chest.

“This was always your fate.” His voice slithered through my mind, thick with triumph. “You were never going to win.”

Lightning flashed, illuminating his face twisted in a snarl.
