My Surprise Mate

I glared at Kain, the man who had vowed to take my daughter.Two men stepped up beside him with smirks on their faces.

"You should leave while you still have a chance," I told him warningly, hoping he would second guess what he was about to do.

"Don’t worry, I’m going to leave...as soon as you give me my daughter."

He looked around the hallway, "Where is your precious mate at?" he sneered as he took a step towards me.

I didn’t move.I knew he was trying to intimidate me, but little does he know I am not the same girl I used to be.

Kain is here…

I sent out a mind link, not really sure who all could hear me though.

It was one thing I hadn’t really spent any time trying to learn since turning.

Kain grabbed my arm, spinning me as he twisted it behind my back.

"You can’t take me..." he growled in my ear.

My anger had reached its boiling point and I could feel myself losing control.

Everything I had been taught in my training recently came flooding back to me.

Using my smaller size to my advantage as everyone taught me, I was able to flip Kain, "I might not beat you, but I can definitely stop you until my mate gets here."

As soon as the words left my mouth, a growl erupted, shaking the whole house.I smirked at Kain who was now standing next to the two men.

Everything seemed next minute he had shifted, and his dark brown wolf had me pinned down.

It took all my strength to hold his snapping jaws back.

Dane will be here any second, I kept telling myself.I was growing tired quickly as I tried to fight Kain off.I closed my eyes as his canines inched closer to my face, and then he was gone.I opened my eyes to see a large black wolf with white-tipped ears fighting Kain.

Zayd seemed to have the upper hand for now.

The two men with Kain shifted mid-stride as they ran to help their Alpha.I couldn’t shift that fast, not yet anyway, but I also couldn’t let them reach Zayd.

He would be overpowered.

I lunged myself at the smaller brown wolf as he tried to bolt past me, knocking him off balance briefly.

He quickly regained his balance and turned to me growling.He lowered himself, ready to pounce.

My heart raced as I tried to figure out what my next move should be.

A blur of grey was all I saw, and I knew I was safe.I knew then everything would be okay.

Dane didn’t hesitate to rip through the wolf’s throat, killing him instantly.

He glanced back at me, blood dripping from his lips before he turned to help his dad.

I wasn’t sure what to do.

Part of me wanted to run, but the other part of me couldn’t stand the thought of leaving and Dane getting hurt.

Dane went straight for Kain’s wolf.

He had him pinned in a matter of seconds.

I thought Kain would submit, but he wasn’t about to.

He was still trying and failing to fight Dane.
