Chapter 406

~Zara’s POV~

I grabbed my keys, smoothing my hands over my fitted sleeveless blouse before slipping into my long balck jacket. The weather had a slight chill today, but it wasn’t the cold that made me shiver—it was the thought of what lay ahead.

My husband, Snow Zephyr.

Our final conversation. Our final confrontation.

My heels clicked against the pavement as I strode toward my car, pushing aside the dull ache in my chest. I refused to let emotions control me. This was just another step forward. Another closure.

Sliding into the driver’s seat, I exhaled sharply before starting the engine. The soft hum of the car filled the silence as I pulled onto the road, the city slowly fading behind me as I made my way toward his territory—toward the place I once called home.

***************

Snow’s mansion stood deep within his estate, surrounded by dense forests and miles of untouched land.

It had always felt like a fortress—one of safety, power and peace.

But as I neared the familiar landmark near the forest, something felt... wrong.

A sharp, gut-wrenching feeling of unease coiled in my stomach, setting every one of my senses on edge.

And then—a massive rock came flying straight toward my windshield.

"Shit!" I cursed, yanking the wheel hard. The tires screeched as my car swerved violently to the side, barely missing the boulder as it crashed onto the road behind me.

My heart pounded, adrenaline flooding my veins. I gritted my teeth, my fingers tightening on the wheel as I caught sight of the thing emerging from the trees.

It was unlike anything I had seen before.

Massive. At least eight feet tall, with jagged black fur and glowing crimson veins pulsing along its arms and chest. Its yellowed fangs were bared, dripping with saliva, and its eyes... its eyes were pure malice.

The air around it was thick, swirling with dark energy.

It was a demon-wolf a witch had summoned.

I cursed under my breath.

"Bastard."

The creature stalked toward me with slowly the earth trembling beneath its weight.

I didn’t hesitate.

Throwing my car into reverse, I spun the wheel hard, my tires skidding against the asphalt. Then, shifting gears, I slammed my foot onto the gas—driving straight into the monster.

The impact sent it flying back, crashing onto the dirt road with a heavy thud.

But I knew better than to think that would be enough.

I shifted into reverse again, ready to speed off, but before I could move an inch—the demon got up faster than I expected.

And much stronger than I wanted.

Its massive hands gripped the front of my car, lifting it like it weighed nothing.

My breath caught.

"Fuck."

Without thinking, I yanked off my seatbelt and kicked the door open, tumbling out just as the demon threw my car to the side. It crashed into a tree, the sound of metal crumpling against wood filling the air.

I barely had a moment to react before the beast lunged.

Instinct took over.

I ducked, pivoting on my heel and slamming my foot into its ribs. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

The impact sent a jolt up my leg, but it barely budged.

Before I could react, it caught my ankle in a vice-like grip.

Astrid growled within and before I knew it she was already trying to take over.

My claws protruded out and first began to fill my arms and legs.

Fear curled inside me, coiling tight in my chest.

But then—something exploded inside me.

Heat. Raw, uncontrollable power surged within me.

My body reacted on its own, energy surging through my veins.

I barely had time to think before a brilliant white light erupted from my chest—slamming into the demon’s attack and slicing through it like paper.

And then it hit him.

A perfect, searing hole burned straight through his chest.

The demon staggered, its red eyes flickering in shock before it collapsed onto the ground—dead.

Silence ensured.

Heavy, suffocating, bloody silence.

I heaved, staggering to my feet.

My body trembled from the aftershock of whatever the hell I had just done.

I looked down at my hands. They were still glowing faintly. My breath came out slow.

Then, I glanced around, at the mess and even my car. Urgh, they were lucky I didn’t catch the culprit. I lifted my eyes to the dark forest ahead.

A slow smirk curled on my lips.

"Oh, Shadow Clave..." I murmured, rolling my shoulders.

"I’m coming for you."
