Alpha Niall And His Lost Mate

Everyone got alert at the very sound of this.

Niall lowered his upper body in a pouncing stance, while Valero mimicked his movement as he turned to the opposite direction.

If Clarissa was correct about the number, this battle was four against fifteen. But the advantage is that we are all high ranking wolves against mere rogues. Special rogues or not, they didn't stand a chance.

The shredding of clothes alerted me that Clarissa shifted too, but I stayed in human form, simply because I never got to learn to fight in wolf form, and I was better with my weapons. I whipped my silver bullet gun from my belt, already aiming it at the trees as we circled slowly.

~Stay behind me"~ Niall instructed sharply in my head. I didn't appreciate his tone, but I knew it was his sole protective nature.

However, I didn't listen, since the minute wolves both shifted and in human form came pouncing from every direction, I made my move.

I wasted no time in firing at them immediately, taking down three of them in the split of a second. I contained a smirk, knowing this couldn't be too hard. The others were already knocking over the shifted wolves, biting into their neck with no hesitation as their body went limp.

I drove my elbow backwards as I heard a rogue approaching me, hitting him square it the face as he plummeted to the ground. I didn't hesitate to end him, immediately turning to strike my right foot to another one who was running towards me, sending him flying. I didn't even know that I had that much strength. Just like before, I delivered a shot to his chest the minute he fell to the ground.

But to my utmost surprise, I was taken off guard as a ball of rough fur plunged me by my side, sending me smack against a tree. I winced as my hand immediately went to the back of my head, but I had no time to focus on that, because the same wolf who shoved me was walking threateningly slow towards me with her teeth bared and snarling.
