Nikolai
"Alpha!" A guard burst in through the door.
I growled at him. I had given strict orders that no one will disturb us.
"It's Luna." He panted, his eyes wide with alarm.
I shot out of my seat. "Where is she?" Is she hurt? Is she in trouble? What happened?
"The beach house."?Fuck.
"Goddamn—" Dimitri muttered but I was already out of the window and in my fur, running towards the beach house.
A growl tore through my throat.
Ava has been unpredictable now a days. There is no saying what is happening over there.
I heard three wolves running behind me. Dimitri, Andrei and Mikhail.
I ran harder. I need to get there quickly.
In five minutes, I reached the house. I heard a commotion at the back so without wasting more time, I rounded the house.
My legs slowed down as I saw a bloodied Max slumped against the tree.
I growled loudly as I glared inside the house. I shifted into my skin and saw a wooden stick fly out of the house, about to lodge itself in Max.
"No!" I heard Nat's blood curling scream.
I ran towards Max and caught the stick just before it touched Max.
I sighed in relief. He would have died if it had impaled through his heart, which was exactly where it was aimed.
I touched Max's shoulder and shook him awake. "You okay?"
He nodded but his eyes seem hazy and his head rolled back.
"Stay here, I'll take care of it." It wasn't like he could move anyways. I turned towards the house in fury.
Avalyn was standing at the threshold of the house and the beach in her all glory. White dress and silver hair. And her liquid blue eyes that was spitting fire at us right now.
The weather seemed to agree with her. The sky had darkened with clouds and lightening flashed in the sky, followed by a deep rumble of thunder.
Was this her doing? Did Ava do this?
I looked at her. The weather didn't seem to bother her at all. And behind her was Natalia. She was lying on the ground on her hands and knees, murmuring something to Ava but I couldn't hear her.
I strode towards her but she flicked her hand at me, flinging me aside.
I grunted as my body made contact with the soft soil which felt hard. I spat the sand that had entered my mouth and hissed myself up.
I growled at her in anger.
"Stop this right now, Avalyn." I yelled.
The answer I got was a chair flying at me from the living room. I caught it and threw it aside.
I growled, very angry now. I'm so done with her shit.
I reached my men.
"Andrei, Mikhail, get Nat outside. Dimitri, come with me." I said lowly, my eyes never leaving Ava.?
Her hair slowly twisted out of the braid because of the harsh winds and flowed in the air behind her in waves.
She looked ready to fight.
All four of us started running towards the house together but she screamed and pushed both her hands forward, pushing us back.
Anger sparked in me as I glared at her. I fucking dare her to use her fucking magic on me again. This girl is going to get a hell of a punishment today.
We again ran towards the house but then we froze.
I. Can't. Fucking. Move.
I gritted my teeth.
"Avalyn release me right now!" I roared angrily my Master voice and then suddenly the lightening flashed on top of the house, blinding my eyes for a half a second. And then the fucking house caught on fire.
But that didn't fucking stop Ava. It was almost like she didn't even notice it.
"You took his side. You took his side!" She spat and brought her hand up just as the thunder clapped loudly. Almost like- like the sky was agreeing with our anger. I turned around and saw Max was in the air now and very much in pain from the looks of it.
"Let him go." I growled.
That apparently made her more angry. She slammed him against the ground. I definitely heard a cracking sound before he coughed up some blood.
That pissed me off further. I pushed myself harder to fight against her magic and then suddenly, I could move.
