Burnin’ Up
“Unless you puke, faint or die, keep going.”
Declan had maxed out on coffee to make the trip home, but Noelle took advantage and rested her head against the half-open window and the old jacket that still laid on the rear seat. She closed her eyes from more than tiredness; she now had a conundrum of magnificent proportions. It was evident her mom and dad’s memory would be back in full swinging order. Declan would be the devil incarnated, in their eyes, and they would be pissed, to say the least. Angry that Noelle had chosen to be with him —a werewolf.
Noelle’s eyes flickered behind her eyelids that sat behind her sunglasses. There was no getting away from it. Noelle was the daughter of a wealthy family who were top of the tree in the hunter stakes. Noelle knew as much as Declan did, and they’d be gunning for him and the others, especially once her dad had time to come up with a plan.
Noelle didn’t care about her dad’s plan, Declan had his own, and Noelle was entirely on board. She wasn’t going to leave Declan; no way, not now. They'd both been through too much and come out the other side and remained together. What better basis for a relationship to flourish. Noelle being left for dead in a forest, and Declan losing his alpha status and then miraculously getting it back.
Noelle's mind stopped thinking of the now and the future. It flicked back to how she'd been trained. Countless days of being whacked with canes made from reeds. It had been like unprotected kendo. She’d become good at that, well she’d had to. The canes had hurt a lot and the bruises made her look like a strange, blackberry-quinoa pudding.
Noelle found the shooting easy. A werewolf wasn’t much different to a rabbit, apart from the size. Get one in the spotlights, and see its blood-red, fear-filled eyes sparkle in candle-powered spotlight —and then just squeeze the trigger. A second or two later, and there would be a spray of blood and a slumped body just waiting to be burned. Anyone could do that, it was pretty easy.
Noelle’s mind went back to the close-combat training, this was the real test of a hunter, and one she’d excelled at. Up close with a werewolf snapping at your face and your neck. Keep your composure and come out on top. That was the aim of the game, and it hadn’t been very often that Noelle failed. She was still alive to think about it, after all.
Noelle relished the challenge. Both in training, and while out on a hunt. A lot of the hunters wore gauntlets to protect them from the razor-sharp teeth of the wolves. Noelle found them too restrictive. She'd cut off the glove part and just had her forearms protected. Then she'd felt free, free to move and feel the wolf in her grasp. She could sense what it was going to do as she clenched her fingers deep into its fur.
