Chapter 0540
I snarl at him, backing up to Calista’s now limp body. Shali having been forced to shift back because of the wolfsbane. I won’t allow anyone to hurt my friend. Warrior Lyle is nowhere around. I’m hoping he’s just knocked out somewhere and not dead.
Andra lifts her head and sends up the howl for help.
“Oh, my beautiful mate. They won’t make it in time. I don’t want your friend. I only want you, my future
Luna.”
Another man steps up beside Alpha Mahli as four more darts get shot into my legs. Andra’s snart is feral as she reaches around and pulls the darts out with her mouth.
“I told you, Alpha. I told you she’s a Guardian. Imagine how strong our pack will be when you take her as our Luna.” The stranger says to Alpha Mahli.
“You’re so right Terrance. It’s amazing what you can learn over pillow talk. I will have to find a way to reward you for this important information.” He says, his eyes never leaving Andra.
“Why isn’t she feeling the effects of the wolfsbane?” Terrance asks.
“A good question.” He turns to his warriors. “Again.” He says and six more darts get shot into me.
Andra’s answering snarl is echoed by another feral snarl, one we know well Donovan.
Just as Donovan enters the area where I am standing off against Alpha Mahli and Terrance, Andra jumps to attack Terrance. He’s obviously expecting the attack and he jumps, shifting mid–air and turns to fight. The problem for him is that he doesn’t want to kill me. I, however, have no such restraint
I feel more darts going into Andra’s hindquarters and when I quickly look at Donovan, I can see that he has several in his leg too. The warriors have shifted and are on their way around the lake. But this pack has never fought a Guardian, much less two. Donovan is fierce, even though I can tell the wolfsbane is impacting him. And me? I have no intention of becoming Alpha Mahli’s Luna, today or any day.
I take advantage of the time that it takes the warriors to get to us and rip Terrance’s wolf’s throat out Alpha Mahli is not fighter but Donovan, while still on his feet, is obviously feeling the effects of the
wolfsbane.
I turn, putting myself between the warriors and Calista’s prone body. As they attack, I take them down,
one by one. Donovan is able to take on two at a time, but he’s not at full strength. Andra is and we’re taking on five at once when I see Zakai, Anders‘ wolf, come barreling into the fight.
He quickly takes out three warriors, giving me the chance to take out two more. The last one makes the mistake of going for Donovan who grabs him, mid–air by the stomach, and practically rips the wolf in half before he crumbles to the ground and succumbs to the effects of the wolfsbane.

Anders shifts quickly and runs to Cali. I shift as well. “She’s okay, she was hit with a wolfsbane dart.” I
tell Anders. He picks her up before turning to me.
“Can you deal with Clint? I need to get Calista to the pack hospital.”
“Yes, I’ll take care of it.
The rest of our warriors are racing after Alpha Mahli. He left his warriors to die while he ran off like the
coward he is.
Donovan has shifted back to Clint and when I walk over to him, I check his pulse. Once I realize that he is
okay except for being knocked out, I grab his arms, turning and pulling him onto my back wrapping his
arms around my neck to keep him up before I begin the slow walk back to the packhouse.

You said in other chapters Cara smells like vinallia and lavender and now are saying she smells like vinallia and honey. Didn't know of that was on purpose or a mistake....
