Chapter 179 The White Queen Emerged
With her eyes wide, Madalynn shouted, “Attackl” with her human voice as she shifted into her wolf, leaping into the air to lead the charge from behind us, her shout morphing into a howl.
Behar’s troops were trained to follow Madalynn’s commands as well, so even though Ethan was still on top of Behar, when she gave the order, the line in front of us moved forward as well
At that moment, many of the children were trapped between the lines of wolves led by Behar because they’d been in the process of moving between them.
Now, they were ripe for the picking.
The battle was upon us, but we were not prepared for it- we had tried to prevent it from happening. We were greatly outnumbered, and we had innocent children to protect. My mind went to Rowan. I saw Georgia, preparing to keep him safe the best she could, but as skillful as she was, Georgia couldn’t even shift yet.
It wouldn’t be enough.
Ethan and Behar were fighting again, and even though Behar had wounds in his neck, he’d gotten a breather while Madalynn and I were having our discussion. In the split second of the child’s cry, his wolf was able to push Ethan off of him.
LOREAL
Ethan wasn’t injured at all, and his strength didn’t falter as he and Behar clashed again, their claws and fangs ripping at one another. I wanted to help, but I felt so hopeless, standing there, watching all of the chaos unfolding around me.
Looking around, I saw women and children screaming and cowering. I saw warriors being double- and triple-teamed because we were so greatly outnumbered.
One group of Madalynn’s wolves were charging toward the center of the last group of citizens, and there were about twenty infants and children among them!
“No-!!!” I screamed.
I couldn’t let this happen! I had to do something to stop these innocent lives from being taken! I had to do something to protect them! There must be a way!!
On the ground, I saw pools of blood and tufts of fur and it was as if my heart was bleeding.
I prayed to the Moon Goddess. And never in my life was I longing so much for power and strength. I needed to be stronger. I needed the power. I needed help!!
Please…help me. I’d pay any price!
With my eyes on the full moon hanging above me, I implored the Moon Goddess, “Give me your strength! Give me your power!” Ancient words came to me, either from a text I’d read or passed down through my ancestry, and I began to chant, “Preme Luna Goddesta, dao mi li muscula, dao mi li energista!”
Over and over again, my tongue ran through the words like I was born to speak them.
“Your Majesty, stop!!!” Cerina’s desperate cry echoed in my head through the mindlink.
“Rosalie! Rosalie!! I heard Ethan’s voice in my head, something I’d never experienced before.
Why were we linked? Was it because of the ritual? However, it didn’t matter….
A flash of light blinded me, and I found myself closing my eyes to preserve my sight as others around me yelped in surprise. The ground beneath my feet began to shake as if a mighty earthquake were unfolding, and then… I felt a rush of energy overtake my body.
My hands began to tingle, my legs began to shake, and within me, I could feel my blood begin to stir within my veins, as if my boc were a pot at the tipping point, about to boil.
My nair flew out around my head, and in my peripheral vision, I could see it… gleaming and glowing in the light of the moon.
White as freshly fallen snow….’,
I felt compelled to leap into the air to shift, and as my feet left the ground, paws emerged. My body went through the usual cracking and popping of taking on my wolf form.
But thisen this was different,
I didn’t see two tiny front paws like i always did before,
My paws were massivemo,
in front of me, I saw Ethan’s wolf hanging in the air a moment, too. We were joined now, so when I began to levitate, so did he.
But when I came back down, and my feet hit the ground, my view was still as if I were floating up in the clouds,
I was massivel
Not the normal sense of massive, but my wolf was ten times, or even twenty times bigger than any average wolf!
My wolf mouth broke into a menacing grin as I glowered down at Behar. His wolf stared up at me, shaking with fear.
The Moon Goddess had given me her power, and now, as a giant wolf, I would find a way to free my people before one more drop of blood was spilled.
Looking down at the wolves around me, I couldn’t help but notice most of them looked to be no bigger than large mice.
I avoided stepping on any of my own people….
As for my enemies, they would simply have to be careful not to find themselves beneath my giant paws.
My first priority was to make a path for my people to run to safety
As I concentrated on the situation in front of me, Ethan, who was looking at me with wonder in his eyes, led the measly fighting power we had to the back of our line, taking on Madalynn and her rogues who had attacked just before the Moon Goddess had given me her power.
Despite my unimaginable size and strength, Madalynn and Behar’s forces did not seem to be slowing. They continued to fight on,,, though I did see apprehensive looks in the eyes of many of their so-called warriors.
LID
They couldn’t fight me, and they knew it. Their teeth would be like pins sticking into my flesh. It would do nothing.
I swiped the enemies aside with ease to clear the path for my people. The enemy soldiers and rogues were brushed eighty to a hundred feet away with a flick of my front left paw. I watched them tumble through the forest like an army of toy soldiers pushed away by a child who no longer wanted to play. However, some of them stubbornly returned and were smashed into smithereens beneath my feet.
I continued to set my left paw down and did the same on the right knocking the attacking wolves into trees and bushes as I made the path for my people to get through as clear as possible.
With a relieved smile, I watched my people run through the forest, headed for a clear path on the other side that would take them to the palace. From this vantage point, I could clearly see that they were going to make it. Whenever one of Behar’s wolves got up to attack again, I simply knocked the warrior backward, giving my citizens the opportunity to run freely.
Once I saw that my people were on their way to safety, I returned my attention to the battle behind me.
Ethan and his warriors were doing a good job of keeping Madalynn at bay, even though they were greatly outnumbered. For a few moments, I found myself staring at Ethan’s wolf as he attacked five of Madalynn’s warriors, all on his own.
Amazement washed over me as I saw him easily take down the five male brutes. He picked them up with his teeth and tossed them around like they were rag dolls, chomping into their necks and leaving them bleeding out on the forest floor.
However, I couldn’t take time to appreciate his impressive moves. I didn’t know how much longer I could continue to channel the Moon Goddess’s energy. I was starting to feel light-headed, and my body was beginning to feel a bit fuzzy, like I was disconnected from my own physical existence.
I forced myself to recover from my moment of awe and I turned my attention to Madalynn’s forces as well, knowing I needed to give Ethan and our warriors a chance to get away.
Tused my front paws the same way I had against Behar’s army, pushing the tiny rogues aside, launching them as deep into the forest as possible. A few of them slammed into tree trunks, and I watched as they wriggled and slid down, not getting up again as their bones were crushed from my blow.
I didn’t like killing, but if that was what was necessary to hold off Madalyan’s forces, so be it. I saw that all of my forces were able to move beyond the perimeter I had established, including Ethan and his men.
However soon I realized that Behar’s army gave up the fleeing citizens and came back to us. Even with my giant wolf, I started to det di Hoult to clear the path. We were outnumbered hundreds of times, and the biggest problem was that I knew loouldn’t malmain the size of my giant wolf now.
needed to get Ethan and the rest of the group out of there!
Igathered more of my strength and tried to run faster, but there were just too many enemies and I wasn’t able to clear out the path tast enough as my wolf was getting smaller.
And unfortunately, I wasn’t the only one who noticed my wolf’s shrinking.
Madalyran was now with Behar, watching me from far away as I shifted back to human form. “She is shrinking! Slow her down and get her!
I couldnt let her get to Ethan… I could do it…!
However, my head was spinning, and it was harder and harder to maintain my wolf. I glanced over at Ethan, who was next to me, and wondered whether he and I would die together.
Maybe that wasn’t such a bad thing after all. Just that I’d miss Rowan so much…
Doohooo!”
Howls echoed in the distance and I looked up to see a large number of troops coming over a hill. My eyes scanned the advancing troops, and I saw a familiar-looking wolf at the lead.
I could feel my sight blurred.
Soren
Our troops had arrived! We were saved!!
A wave of gratitude washed over me. I was so thankful to see that we were about to have reinforcements. Madalynn had not given up yet, and even though she was keeping her distance from me, she was still trying to rally her troops.
All I needed to do was hold her off until Soren arrived!
didn’t know where I had gotten the strength, but I pushed myself to my extreme to move forward and create a narrow path so that Soren’s reinforcement could get to us sooner.
Ethen stayed with me.
As soon as I saw the lead detail of my army reaching the clearing where we were situated, I let the exhaustion that had been threatening me from all sides come crashing down over me.
I didn’t even have the strength to stand up anymore. Before I fell down, I caught a glimpse that Soren had Madalynn and Benar on the run now
knew they would be back and that we hadn’t destroyed their armies. But for now, we were safe, and I was so thankful to the Moon Goddess for her assistance and mercy.
watched as my forces from the palace continued to run after Madalynn and Behar’s retreating packs.
te mysekt growing weaker and weaker. My eyes closed, and I drifted down to the ground in much the same way I had floated up to begin with
A moment later, I found myself lying on the ground, blinking up at a star-filled sky. I closed my eyes again too tired to move.
