The witch’s glare hardens my best friends face as she looks out at the crowd.
“You fools.” She growls, before a spark of power burst from her chest and rolls across the crowd of witches.
The witch beside me throws a shield up just in time for the burst of power to hit her, but the burst slides right over me. I don’t even feel a tingle of the magic.
One by one they begin dropping. Falling to the ground their mouths open and eyes wide… Dead.
The witch beside me gasps, her eyes wide as she watches all of her friends fall to the ground.
I look back up at Amy as she rips the binds from her hands and floats beyond the logs at her feet to the ground.
The witch glares at the one beside me, the only one left, then the witch beside me disappears in a cloud of green smoke.
The witch walks over to me slowly, moving the bodies from her path with a move of her hand. Once she’s in front of me, the chain around my wrists falls to the ground.
I stare at her, my mind running a million miles a minute. The death she ensued does not surprise me; we’ve all known her goals. But the power…
“How?” I rasp, my eyes searching between the dead and Amy’s. A slow smile forms on her face, “You’ve kept me chained because I wanted you to believe that you could chain me.”
My head shakes, “So this whole time?” I ask, and she nods. “I am not bond by the rules of the witches, or the rules of the wolf. I am something else entirely. These fools thought they knew what they were doing…” She looks into my soul, “Just know, Dallas. I am something this world has never seen before. You won’t find where to defeat me in books. You can’t defeat me. You can’t kill me. Just like I told her… Killing Amy will not end this. Nothing will end this.”
She doubles over, gasping for air, before I can say anything else. I look around to see what’s happening, but when I look back, I see Amy looking back at me.
Her eyes softer as she looks around at the disaster.
I’m instantly on the ground next to her, pulling her closer. “She said she was punishing you. Are you okay?” I beg her to tell me, pulling her face from the carnage to my eyes.
