Chapter 12

Terror rooted my feet to the stone floor. In moments, Gates’ human features morphed into a short-snouted wolf with amber irises that filled their entire eye sockets. His hairline lowered halfway down his forehead, down his temples and around his jawline, while thick, ropey muscles burst through his blazer, revealing pale flesh covered in dark fur. My mind went blank, and Mom’s voice screamed at me to run, but my muscles wouldn’t budge.

His malevolent eyes settled on me, and every ounce of blood drained from my face and into my legs. I backed out of the chamber with my palms uselessly outstretched in front of my body.

I shook my head from side to side. “Gates… N-no… C-calm down.”

My ass hit the door. With trembling hands slippery from sweat, I fumbled for the knob and pulled it open. Even when I stepped out and shut the door on the still-transforming werewolf, my pulse wouldn’t slow. I still needed to leave through that bolted door and run up the stairs.

A howl echoed into the hallway, making the fine hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. My steps quickened, along with the beat of my frantic heart. Gates must have been bitten the night we arrived. Commander Shanks had joked about werewolves patrolling the forest, and Gates had bolted through the doors of the van and escaped into the trees.

The thud of a body hitting the door sent a chill through my veins. I imagined that Gates—the werewolf—would burst out and either rip me to shreds or infect me with his lycanthropy. I didn’t know which would be worse.

THUD

THUD

THUD

CRASH!

Wood splintered out from the door, and the werewolf stuck its snout through the jagged hole. His lips curled back in a snarl, revealing the most horrifically large and sharp teeth I’d seen on any canine. A scream caught in my throat. What if he broke through his chain?

I sprinted to the end of the hallway and pounded my fists on the locked door. “Raphael! Open up.”

A low, guttural snarl made the lining of my stomach tremble. I turned the handle, but it was stuck. I slammed my palms on the door, but no one answered.

CLINK

CLINK

CLINK!

The sound of rattling chains shook me to the marrow, and when one of the links snapped, fear set every nerve ending alight. In a moment, the werewolf would burst from his restraints and attack.

Tears filled my eyes, and terror filled my heart. Was this the Stryx Brothers’ revenge for what I did to Dante’s face? I hadn’t even done it on purpose. A sob caught in my throat. “Raphael, please!”

BANG!

With an almighty leap, the werewolf burst free of the door and landed on his front paws in a low crouch. He stalked toward me, taking his time. Ropes of saliva hung from his teeth, making my stomach want to heave out its contents.

My gaze darted up, down, left, right… looking for an escape, but there was none. It was just me with a locked door at my back and to my front, an approaching werewolf.
