AARON
I tear my way through Tobin’s wolves, no matter if they challenge me, or simply stand in my way.
My wolf and I have never been angrier, or more murderous than we are right now.
Well, one other time, when our son was threatened. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
But now I know Tobin was behind everything that
happened-even if he hasn’t directly admitted to all of it-just to steal my combined Alpha powers, the
unfocused rage I’ve been feeling the past few months and the pain the past few weeks of keeping
myself away from Leah and lying to her about Ethan to protect her all fuses together into one furious,
violent drive to kil l Tobin.
He’s not making it easy, however, putting his wolves in between us, hoping they’ll overwhelm me by
sheer number or brute strength, but they all underestimate how much rage. and savagery is burning
through my veins.
I lose count of how many wolves I rip apart, before finally realizing that Tobin has run.
Co ward.
I take off after him.
He’s long gone, but I’ve got his scent, and I’m not going to let him get away.
I race through the factory, weaving through old machines and abandoned stacks of pallets.
His scent is getting stronger, and I think I must almost be on top of him.
A net drops from somewhere above me and I stumble into a roll, my legs getting caught up and then I
yelp at the burning
sensation of silver.
The silver net has wrapped itself all the way around me because of how I rolled once it fell on me. But
this one is only silver, it’s not infused with wolfsbane like the chains were.
Despite the pain, I know it’s not going to hold me for long.
“This is the only warning I’m giving you,” Tobin says from above me.
I glance up-even as I’m struggling to free myself-to see him standing on the gangway.
“If you come after me, there will be consequences, Aaron.”
I growl, since I haven’t shifted back, I can’t tell him where he
can shove his warning.
“Oh, you think I’m acting alone?” Tobin continues with a deranged laugh. “How very short-sighted of
you. Of course
I didn’t do all this alone. There are Councils within Councils.
And we are going to lead wolves into a bright new future. A
future where we don’t have to hide from humans. A future
where we are the dominant species, just like we always should
have been.”
I’m close to getting myself free, but as I watch, Tobin shifts and sprints away, into the darkness.
With renewed determination not to let him get away, I finally drag myself free of the net.
I don’t care what Tobin says.
Even if he is backed by some of the Council, even if there are consequences for my actions, I’ll deal
with them later.
After Tobin is dead and buried.
