Abby saw how Micah snapped his teeth dangerously close to Alan’s neck and quickly made a decision, she flung a fireball at Alan’s neck, surprising both Micah and Alan. However, it got the work done, as Micah pushed Alan’s beast away reflexively, while the beta got his fur burned a little, but that was it.
Alan wasn’t injured, because Abby made sure to restrain her power as much as possible and only threw a fireball that wasn’t really harmful at them.
However, this made the huge black beast turn its attention onto Abby, who was now just a few feet from it while Mirella was right beside her.
“Micah, come to your senses.” Abby didn’t know why she tried to talk to Micah at this juncture, but she knew she had to do something to reach him. She only knew her Micah was still in there somewhere, fighting whatever stupid spell Calpin cast on him.
The response from Micah wasn’t surprising though, as the beast just snarled savagely as it prowled toward Abby, its blood red eyes fixed on the petite woman, as if she were its prey.
Abby couldn’t help but feel her heart bleed seeing Micah’s ire being directed at her, she only ever got to witness overflowing love in his gaze toward, and this sight left her reeling with sorrow.
It was clear Micah couldn’t recognize any of them, but the fact he couldn’t recognize her either broke her heart a little, even though she had known better to hope for the impossible at this point.
On the other hand, Alan quickly healed his surface wound and rushed to Abby and Mirella’s side, the only problem was; why did it seem like Micah’s beast was solely fixated on Abby?
It was as if he couldn’t see anything else besides her, and not in the loving way they had all grown accustomed to watching him behave around her. This was completely different. He was looking at Abby like he couldn’t wait to kill her. His eyes were filled with this fierce madness as he stalked forward, while Abby stood frozen in her place, as if she couldn’t decide what to do now.
[Abby!]
“Abby!”
Both Alan and Mirella felt their hearts drop when Micah threw his paw at her, his claws extended. It happened so fast. Alan was still a couple feet away from them, while Mirella couldn’t do anything to stop the inevitable. Her magic just wouldn’t work against Micah no matter what she did, it was unnerving.
They knew Abby wouldn’t survive such a brutal blow from Micah, though. Their hearts thudded painfully against their chests, however, the inevitable didn’t happen, because Abby finally came to her senses and dodged his attack just in time.
As she burned his hind calf while sliding away from his path of trajectory when he lost control for a moment, he sustained the first real wound since he started fighting today.
Abby’s fire wasn’t something to be trifled with, and it was the only magic that could counter Calpin’s dark magic. So when it was her standing against him, the battle almost looked equally matched.
However, Micah still had the upper hand, only Abby didn’t succumb to his suppression at all. With Alan, Micah could count on his superior alpha dominance and added strength of the royal bloodline, but with Abby, only his strength made the difference, against which Abby had her own fire magic to counter with.
