Howard

With the car abandoned, we ran. She was struggling and losing. He had her panties off and my wolf roared inside my soul so loudly my whole body hurt. Tahl is the strongest of my old pack. Xavier is the fastest of ours and he made it to them before I did, reaching down and grabbing Tahl by his jacket and throwing him onto the ground.

That’s where we are now. For the first time I know what it feels like to be a team, because I do not mind that he grabbed Tahl first. I only care that she is safe. Tahl’s cock is still in his pants, though they are unzipped, we got here in time.

Tahl is up off the ground in a heartbeat. Xavier stands back and lets me do what I have to do. With my new, chosen pack at my sides I face my childhood friend, the one who chose the dark side. Who I loved like family, but will never love again.

“Tahl, you never learn,” I snarl.

He sneers at me and says so lowly only we can hear him, “She tastes like cotton candy and pain. Yummy.”

Xavier mutters to Draik, “Here we go.”

And before I know what’s happening, I’ve shifted. Tahl must have known I would because in the same instant his glowing grey eyes are looking at me from behind a face of fur. We go at each other. It is my first fight. I don’t judge or watch myself. I let my wolf lead. He knows the way, and now…I trust him.

As we bite and lash out and circle each other, coming back for round after round, Xavier flashes from building to building and knocks out the security cameras. Draik goes to help my blue-haired girl. A door to her club is forced closed when someone tries to use it to get to their car. My packmates cover all bases, while I make an old friend pay. It is violent and merciless. With fur and blood in my teeth, I stare down at his shattered, whimpering beast. I paw at the ground and pace, making sure he’s not faking.

“He’s done,” Xavier says in a voice so calm it settles my blood. “He won’t get up.” He motions for me to look at the girl. I do, and see her staring at me with wide blue eyes, her lips open, mascara in streaks. Draik was kneeling by where she sits on the ground and as I pad over to her on four strong paws, he stands to walk away. Our eyes are bound to one another’s like a lock that’s found its only existing key.

I’m something out of horror movie.

I have no delusions that’s how society sees us.

I am wondering what she thinks.

When I am little more than a foot away, I bow my muzzle, casting my eyes to her knees, bloodied, embedded with gravel. Pain twists inside me at the sight and then I hear her speak. “Come closer,” she whispers, gentle and hoarse.
