An End
ZAIA.
I run towards Atticus and Valerie, my heart pounding violently. “Valerie!”
“She’s alright.” Atticus growls but I can tell he is angry. His voice is tense and trembling with rage. Even though he’s reassured me, I keep running.
“Shame you survived that attack… don’t worry, this time I’ll end her properly.” Gaultier sneers, making my eyes flash.
“Fuck you.” Valerie spits.
“If you want to.”
Atticus’s snarl reaches me just as Sebastian
catches up to me.
‘Get on!’ he snarls.
I don’t argue, jumping onto his back as he runs at incredible speed through the trees.
There are dozens of wolves all around and I
can’t see Valerie or Atticus, although I can sense their auras ahead from the midst of all of the wolves.
Sebastian tears through them, throwing, biting and killing them as we pass.
I catch Valerie’s and Atticus’s scent up ahead and my eyes blaze as I leap off Sebastian’s back blasting Gerard to the ground, my glowing orange power swirling around me like a full- body shield.
“Don’t touch her!” I snarl, looking at Valerie, who is clutching her bloody arm.
“Or what?” Gaultier asks as he turns his cold eyes on me. The similarities to Sebastian are uncanny, and I hate it.
“Or I will fuck you up,” I reply icily.
Gaultier rushes at me, only for Sebastian to growl threateningly at him as he blocks his path, his aura surging around him.
“Ah, Sebastian… what a surprise,” Gerard says coldly. He stands there completely relaxed, with Gaultier’s aura protecting them both.
His voice is loud in my head. I can feel his rage and anger through
