Chapter 12
Aleia shot up twenty feet into the air, and I scanned the ground to try to get a better handle on the strange beast that was lurking around the convent.
It was hard to make it out since he was sticking to the shadows, but while Iâd initially thought it had the body of a cat, I now realized its head was shaped more like a rottweiler. An ugly one. Its tail was more canine than feline and curved up halfway over its elongated back, and its body was close to an even longer, skinnier greyhound.
It was oddly lanky to look at, but I could sort of see the lean muscles roping its entire form. I couldnât figure out why I was having trouble getting a gauge on his build, though. Normally, my God Vision did alright in the dark, and it was only dusk. More concerning than this was the fact that this ugly ass beast didnât make a single sound no matter what its paws stepped on.
My nerves spiked as the shadowy animal silently approached the convent gate, but then it turned away and started pacing like a tiger in a cage. Rage burned in its ugly eyes as it prowled back and forth along the edge of the convent wall, and it sniffed the ground with its shadowy nose as if it were hunting for something, or someone, in particular.
âGrab your weapons, Penelope!â I shouted. âAnd head up to the tower!â
Penelope dashed off to get the bows and sling from where the women had stashed them near their worksite, and then she ran back over to the base of the tower.
Nicola had started to climb up the ladder so she could stand on the newly-constructed tower. Once the brunette reached the platform, the naiad handed her the weapons and began her own climb.
âWhy isnât Thunder barking?â the dark-haired woman asked. âWhy didnât we have more warning? It seems strange.â
âI didnât hear anything, either,â Penelope confirmed. âIs the enemy totally silent?â
âThe beast is just so⦠shadowy,â Aleia shuddered. âMaybe poor Thunder canât sense it.â
At the sound of his name, Thunder jumped to his feet, and his huge nostrils flared as he tipped his nose toward the dusky sky. Then he let out a long, low growl at the demonic dog approaching the door of the convent, and when the beast slunk away again, the huge puppy looked around and started to whimper.
âI think I see it,â Nicola announced as she stared at the ground with a grimly set jaw. The brunette drew her bow and immediately released an arrow, but it missed the side of the shadow dogâs body by inches and clattered to the ground.
âItâs okay,â I encouraged her. âKeep shooting!â
At the sound of the arrow hitting the dirt, the slinky black beast looked up and made a loud noise that reminded me of air hissing out of a tire. The animal twisted its head from side to side, and it wasnât clear to me whether the strange animal could actually see the priestesses.
