Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

Chapter 196

The elastic–like energy around me explodes forcing its way through the cracks in the glass. His eyes widen as the first layer gives in. I cry out pushing against the energy again. The entire tube structure gives out and he’s instantly surrounded by what used to be his loyal soldiers..

“No,” he shakes as I step over the pieces of glass. “You were supposed to be one of us! We were supposed to own the new world. You have ruined everything! I chose you!”

“It was the right choice,” I nod. “If we’re being honest, you made the right choice. I would have given you anything,”

“You still can! We can still fix this,” he takes a step towards me and holds out his hand. I grip the handle of my sword and slide it out of its place under my vest. “Come with me. I can fix it. We can fix it,”

“You shouldn’t have taken him away from me,” I hold the sword out.

The bit of hope he was grasping onto shatters. I see the moment when he realizes that no one will help him anymore. His pores begin to open up as the thick needles of his wraith fur come out. I lower my sword and the guys open fire on him.

The old man screeches like a falcon in peril. He falls to the floor as his shift takes over. I unlock my vest and slip it off in case I need to shift. I toss it aside. Violetta drops on his other side with her twin Sai. Her blades and mine are made out of the only thing that is going to get through his thick skin.

Vampyrian steel. This bright red metal is something we came across the first time we took out a coven master. He knew why we were there. The first to ever tell us that this thing was a monster. He told us that it was the only steel that could penetrate a Wraith’s armor.

Vy wanted to give it to the old man, but it was too pretty for me to let it go and I convinced her that I could make us

that were better than anyone else’s. I made this blade, her two Sais, and a katana I was going to give Darren after Rain was born.

“You have disappointed me for the last time,” he roars. I hold my arm out in front of me as a blast of hot air pushes the others away from him.

“Vy!” I call out.

“I’m good,” she shouts back.

“Stand back!” I order as the two of us pace around him.

The heat coming off his body is a lot for a regular wolf. I wouldn’t have been able to stand it before now. His blue fur sparks with electricity as his crimson eyes look between the alpha female behind him and me.

My body responds to the challenge. My muscles adjust on their own. A lot more than when I took on the gorgons. I feel the way my cargos tighten around my legs and my armored top. My teeth elongate enough for me not to be able to shut my mouth all the way, but I don’t shift. That means there’s no need for it and that’s all the reassurance I need

I charge first. Pushing off the floor with everything I’ve got. He roars when I drop to my knees and slide across the glass floor. I swing my sword. He moves his leg but not fast enough for me to completely miss. He screeches when the blade slides through his fur and several layers of his skin.

“It fucking works” Violetta shouts and it’s followed by her alpha cry.

I spin around and push off the floor to charge him again but he jumps up to crawl along the ceiling.

“Throw one of them to James!” I shout and turn around to get to the wall behind me.

Using my claws I pull myself up moving as fast as I can and then push off the edge towards him. My claws cut into his thigh

when he tried to geme. lift the blade putting it between my teeth and clamp down on it to grip him with both hands. I swing my legs back and then pull them back up trying to get him down.

A mass of black fur collides with his side and a loud screech comes out of the old man. I push off of him and land on my feet. James hits the floor and skids across the glass. The old man drops down. One of Vy’s daggers is embedded in his back.

I roll out of the way when bolts of electricity come down around me. I scramble onto my feet and rush to the wall again gripping the blade in my hand. I push off and spin around throwing the blade at him. It cuts across his mouth when he tries to dodge it. The blade hits the wall across the way as I land on his back. I rip the Sai out of his back and swing forward stabbing his shoulder. Once, twice, and then I’m flying across the room when his massive claws dig into my back.
