Chapter 18
I whipped my head around desperately in every direction. I didn’t know where to begin to look.
Then I heard a scream.
A little girl’s scream.
Lila’s scream.
My blood ran cold. Pushing myself harder, I rushed over to the sound, begging the Moon Goddess to give the strength to shift. The sluggish sound of my feet pounding down on the mud ringing in my ears when I saw a figure hunching over the ground.
A man built up with heavy pounds of muscles pinned Lila on the ground. Tears rolled down her eyes as she screamed hysterically. Her legs kicking and arms trying to pull from the man’s grasp. Her pants were thrown to the side, shirt ridding up her exposed chest. Her underwear was still on but the man was quickly trying to change that. Without thinking, I rushed over and threw myself over the man’s body. He fell over, my arms still wrapped tightly around his neck. Lila’s screams were unceasing as she crawled away and stared at me. She cried out my name, then Bentley’s before repeating in a cycle.

The man was strong. He recklessly thrashed around, his hands planting firmly around my forearms in attempt to pull me off.

Lila’s broken whimpers against my skin took me out of my trance. Cautiously, I wrapped my arms around her body and held her close. Her warmth the only thing keeping me from losing my mind, My touch soothed her slightly as hers did for me.
I swallowed. Picking myself up with Lila in my arms, I walked over the body, not sparing another glance in both disgust of the man and disgust in myself for enjoying the feel of his life leaving his body in my arms. My wolf growled in approval, her canines baring in pride. The desire for blood was clear in her beady black eyes.
We needed to get out of here.
Forcing myself to think straight, I suddenly remembered Bentley.
