CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Ruby
When he shouts go the second time, his voice becomes more of a wolfâs howl. There are footsteps upstairs, on the other side of the cabin, but Iâm not sure theyâll get here in time.
Ramsey stands up to his full height. He changed so fast, his bones cracking and reshaping, the hair growing. It felt like a minute, maybe less.
And heâs burning up from the inside, his eyes almost glowing red, his ears flattening as they brush along the ceiling. Heâs so big he completely covers the doorway.
Go, he said, but thereâs no way out.
âRamsey?â Liamâs outside the door. âAre you in there? Ruby?â
âItâs...,â I swallow as the wolf â as Ramsey â softly lowers himself to his forepaws, walking toward me, his eyes glowing as he stalks closer. âItâs Ramsey. Heâs changed.â
âOkay. Can you get out of the room?â
I donât want to.
âHeâs not going to hurt me,â I whisper as he closes the distance completely.
Itâs like in the alleyway. He stares right at me, his eyes searing into me.
âRamsey,â I whisper as tears prick my eyes.
Iâm not sure where they come from. Maybe itâs just how quickly I went from body-shattering pleasure to this; to being face to face with my massive heaving beast. My wolf.
âRamsey.â
He growls softly, tilting his head. I walk closer, brushing my hand along his silver jaw and behind his ears.
âRuby?â Liam says from outside.
âWeâre fine,â I tell him.
Ramsey grumbles and then steps back, rearing back, shaking as he stares down at me. Heâs hard, just like last time, his body heaving just like it was when he was in his human form. Shreds of clothes cling to him, but most lie in tatters on the floor.
He opens his mouth and snarls; teeth bared, he snarls and then throws his head back and howls. He howls so loudly that the glass shatters in the mirror, and the walls tremble.
The whole world shakes. It feels the same way it did in the alleyway.
Except now weâre closer and I know who he is for sure.
Ramsey lowers himself again, shuddering as he moves toward me.
A note of fear touches me, and I hate myself for it. Heâd never hurt me.
Would he?
He nudges me with his nose, pushing me into the corner of the room. I move along with him. He clearly wants me over here, and Iâm not about to argue.
Then he turns and runs right at the window. He howls as he leaps through it. Itâs too small for him, but his powerful body pulls the window straight out of the frame.
I yell and reach out as though I can stop him, but then Ramseyâs gone, a jagged hole in the wall, with bits of wood and glass everywhere.
Thatâs why he moved me.
He had to leave.
But he still wanted to keep me safe.
He was thinking of me, even then, even when he was clearly losing control.
Losing control for me.
Liam pushes the door open, looking at me and then the hole in the wall.
My instinct is to cover myself after what Ramsey and I just did.
