The village was like something out of a dream. Or one of those fantasy romance audiobooks Elsa liked to listen to whenever things at the Zentrum were slow.

A pang of longing surged through me but quickly quieted down as I took in the scenery.

A myriad of gorgeous houses surrounded by open space, the facades adorned with climbing roses, hydrangeas, honeysuckle, and wisteria plants that complemented the architecture and only further integrated the buildings in the backdrop of untouched nature. A wide array of bushes and trees lined the numerous winding paths, all of them cared for without crossing over into the artificial territory so many gardens within our world succumbed to. But above all else, it was the absence of humanity that filled me with wonder. The absence of technological advancement, too.

No cars to pollute the air. No blare of radios to overpower the gentle rustling of leaves as winds curved through the branches.

Mochthrath reminded me of a fairy tale.

Only they usually didn’t have a staggering amount of energy flying around like fucking bullets.

Fighting back the lingering nausea that surged after Liva had evanesced us here with her nifty amethyst pendant, I reeled in my admiration and sought cover behind a rose-covered gazebo. As did Liva.

Some of the Fae under her command were already doing damage control, positioned up ahead alongside the first responders, but the shit-stirring crowd was putting up quite the resistance. I glanced from the scene to the warrior Liva had morphed into in the span of a few seconds. She balanced her sword in her hands.

“You’re a werewolf, yes?” Liva asked, a sly smile teasing her lips.

She already knew the answer, but sensing where her line of inquiry was going, I tipped my head in acknowledgment. “Yes.”

Her smile stretched into a full-blown grin. “Then let’s give them something they won’t expect.”

Excitement stirred in my veins, and I shimmied out of my clothes, calling to the power within that was all too eager to respond. The change washed over me smoothly, my senses sharpening and instincts rising to the surface.

Liva’s gaze slid over my shaggy brown fur. I lolled out my tongue, ears held high, and attuned myself to the different feel of this world. Once I stopped sniffing the air and cataloging the sensations, Liva gave me a curt nod.

“I’ll be the first line of attack. They should be too busy engaging me to turn their power on you, but mind any stray vines. They hurt like a sonovabitch.” She hesitated for a moment. Just a moment. “Don’t be afraid to go for the kill. They certainly won’t.”

It seemed I wasn’t the only one who was coming to terms with that side of battle, but the resistance I’d expected to encounter never rose. The Freundenberger ruthlessness had revealed itself in full.

Surprisingly, I didn’t mind it all that much.

I pressed my muzzle to Liva’s leg and gave her a gentle nudge to start moving. She snorted, then laughed, briefly placing her hand on my head to scratch
