SKYLA.

Aleric makes the first move, sending a blazing ball of fire right at Royce, who instantly blocks it with his own flames, clearly making Aleric

angrier.

The witches begin chanting, their voices getting louder, their power rising and it’s becoming suffocating.

“Those who cannot fight, fall back!” Dad’s command rushes through the room.

‘Three serpents have appeared, and they are

huge.’ Dante’s voice comes. ‘Make that seven…’

‘You can see them?’ Dad asks him sharply.

‘Yes… we’re handling them. Another two,’ Dante says, sounding as relaxed as ever. ‘Leo’s going all out. I can assure you, Dad, if your pack and his pack went to battle… we’d lose.’ 15

“That much confidence in your brother?”

‘Absolutely.’ Dante replies.

‘We’ll have reinforcements sent.’ Dad says. ” Anyone on the outer perimeter, assist with the

serpents. Use the coloured smoke bombs to help make them visible!’

A flurry of replies come in a

Aleric snarls.

“Looks like Apophis sent reintos.”

“I don’t think I need any more reinforcements than what I have,” Royce counters, blocking another hit.

The roof trembles and I glance up.

“They’re going to break the barrier. I don’t

think Delsanra’s and Raihana’s barriers will hold!” Dad growls.

“I’m going out there to help!” I say out loud and through the mind link. “I will deal with them

“I will, you too, Magic Fingers,” I say. Our eyes.

and he’s forced to knock him back and turn

away from me.

“Take this earpiece!” Dad shouts, throwin

to me from across the hall as he forces a witch

to the ground and knocks her unconscious.

I put it in, hearing the others talking to one

another.

I rush past the witches that are now throwing spells, making sure to steer clear.

Someone knocks one of Dad’s men to the ground and the witch raises her hand, ready to kill him, when I turn back, raising my arm and elbow her in the neck, throwing her off him. growling menacingly.

“Thank you, Skyla.” He says, getting to his feet. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“Watch your back, dude,” I reply, jumping over an upturned table and running to the door. 2

Mama Mari is fast, and I can see her take on two witches, her two swords in hand, as she lithely knocks a witch’s feet from beneath her, before she hits a point at the back of her neck, and she slumps to the floor. 5

Wait, is that Ahren with her?

I frown at the man in black. His face is masked,

but I can recognise those curls anywhere! 23

Damn, the fucker snuck in. It’s obvious Mama Mari is keeping him close, oh he’s going to be in

trouble later. 2

These kids never fucking listen. 3

We do share the same blood, makes total fucking sense!

I’m halfway across the hall when the entire ground trembles.

“This place will cave! Kia, Kat, get the elderly and children out.” Dad snarls as Aleric sends flames across the ground.

A powerful explosion is heard, and the ground rumbles, throwing me off my feet. I’m about to hit the floor, ready to break my fall when

someone catches me, and I find myself staring up at a man with blue eyes.

“I am Angelo, the Beta of the Shadow Wolves Pack. At your command, Queen Skyla,” he says, lowering his head as he places me on the floor. 2

Ok, being called queen is wei

“Clear out those who can’t fight and make sure Royce is protected. I’ll be fine. Protect your king.” I say quietly.

I look over my shoulder, through the fire, smoke and blasts of magic, spotting Royce in the midst of a cyclone. The brother’s powers have destroyed half the building, and no one is able to get close.

“Clear out the place,” I say instead, knowing they won’t be able to assist Royce.

He’s handling him well… and I can see Aleric’s anger rising. His moves become more violent, whilst Royce is still calm and calculating…

‘He’s approaching…” Uncle Liam’s voice comes through the earpiece.

Apophis…

I feel it before I even see any signs of him.

That same darkness I felt

Azura now returns.

“I’m coming. Sky, you stay here!” Dad growls through the link.

“No. Stay and keep an eye on Aleric. If Royce needs backup you need to be there, Al. If we go by the shit we learned, then we’re better off with Skyla out front.” Leo’s voice comes.

I break into a run, ducking as the building ahead erupts, sending shards of crystal everywhere, it’s chaos, but I know my aim is to get out there

I don’t know what I’ll do… but Bastet chose me for a reason… I just need to follow my heart and what feels right…

I glance over my shoulder at Royce, spotting him throwing Aleric to the ground, blood tainting his sword of ice…

He’ll be ok…

“Take care of yourself, Love.” Royce’s breathless voice comes through the earpiece.

“You too, Sexy,” I respond before he’s gone

from view as I step outside.

There are

several serpents and most of them are attacking

the domed roof of the building. I can see the shimmering of the barriers as they hold strong. But they are weakening.

Outside it’s worse than ar

I can see Delsanra standing there chanting something; a shield around her as a few werewolves enclose her, protecting her back as she focuses on the barrier.

Uncle Liam and Leo are fighting the beasts, and all those explosions, that’s Leo’s and his men’s doing. I flinch as another explosion goes off and the serpent’s blood splatters everywhere.

There may be about three dead, but there are also several wolves that are dead.

I glance towards the roof of the building where the darkness is gathering, in the midst of the serpents…

I press a button on my earpiece, feeling it whiz as it changes shape a little

Leo is a genius, and the device will adapt to stay hooked around my ear as a Lycan. 2

Ok…

Exhaling, I close my eyes, willing myself to shift

Embrace my true self…

There’s a split second of pain before my bones realign and I am now in my Lycan form.

I’m calm, believing in my self-control but I feel different…

I rush towards the roof, gasping at the sudden burst of speed I’m moving at. My heart

thunders and I slow down, looking down at the sword I’m still holding.

“Whoa…’ Azura says through the earpiece. ” Your fur…”

“Focus on that shit later. Move.” Leo

commands as I look down.

What the fuck?

My white fur is no longer pure white, it is now covered in dark grey stripes. There’s something around my neck as well. 8

I look up, thinking I’ll make sense of that later and focus on the serpents smashing into the

roof.

So far it’s holding.

They are trying to break into the dome… Why?

Suddenly, my stomach churns.

Dad and Royce.

‘Guys, Aleric commanded me to kill Dad and Royce. He wants them dead. Their aim is to kill the two kings.’ I remind them through the link and Kataleya repeats my words to the group.

“We’ll be fucking fine, focus on yourself, Sky,” Dad says

“And take care of yourself.” Royce’s voice

comes.

‘I will.’ I say through the link.

“Fuck, these witches are getting out of control!

Where is Raihana?” Dad asks.

I dodge a serpent, only for another to whack me to the ground. I grab onto the smooth dome, my claws digging in before I use the sword as leverage, slashing through the serpent’s neck.

Its blood splatters on me as it turns, hissing at me before it darts at me once again.

My eyes flash as I jump up, spinning in the air and landing on his head.

My aura swirls around me, making it hiss, throwing its head back and trying to jerk away as if my proximity is burning it.

I slam the sword through his head, killing him as powerful energy radiates through me, making the other serpents pull away.

Almost as if I’m surrounded by a shield to protect me.

So who’s fucking next?
