who it is before I turn around. My body tenses, the slight shift of Jason’s feet triggering my body into action. I spin and leap toward him, catching a flash of his fangs as they shift out. In my peripheral, I see Logan and Quinn flanked by more than a dozen girls, scrambling out of the way as I crash into Jason and the pair of us go tumbling into the rock wall. Now he is all I can see.

He smirks at me as my hands close around his throat and his muscles well with change.

“You die tonight,” 1 hiss, my body quaking as the pair of us shift in a cacophony of growls and ripped clothing,

I know my brothers are there. Watching. Waiting for any moment that might appear to be losing the fight. Because whether I can beat him or not doesn’t matter. All I need from him is for him to be dead. The way or how that it’s accomplished doesn’t matter. A pack of wolves is what they are. A pack. And should I show the slightest tremble, my brothers will pounce on Jason like piranhas in the Amazon. There will be nothing left. He has raped for the last time.

The knowledge of this boosts my confidence and we twirl together in deadly dance. Our snapping jaws and snarling fangs echo deep in the cavern, filling my ears with nothing but, I rip at his belly, my claws tearing through flesh, blood warming my pas.

But I’m bigger than he is and buck him off, flipping his body as I kick him out the doorway and into the night.

A slight bend of his hindleg warns me he is about to pounce and I attack, shifting my movement as I snap my jaws closed in the space I believe he will be. My fangs rip into flesh, tasting the copper of his Blood and savoring its flavor as I whip my head back to rip a chunk of his neck from his body. But he’s still moving and his legs shoot out, scraping across my stomach as he flies past me and back into the cave, slamming the door closed behind him. Momentarily stunned by the pain that blossoms in my mid–section, I’m not quite fast enough to shift back before he can slide the latch closed on the other side. Which is exactly what he does.
