Throat.
Each word came from my wolf’s soul with a definitive, sharp meaning.
We couldn’t allow this intrusion. And based on the power I sensed in this magic, the Alpha of the Outcast Pack had been mocking my father ever since the war.
Not that I cared about the brute, but I cared about mypack. And that’s what my father had always represented.
I’d finish what my father had thought was done.
Except… the other alpha was too damnfast.
“Stay… still!” I growled as I threw a fist at his face.
It didn’t matter right now that there were a shit ton of Hunters on our doorstep. They had paused to witness the battle.
It would be a spectacle.
This would be a fight to the death.
Starting with you,I thought at the male who shouldn’t exist.
His white eyes held a brilliant gold band fresh with magic. I hadn’t sensed him out during the night, which meant he’d been behind closed doors during the High Moon.
But I smelledheron him, and that enraged me even more.
The human who had stolen the Moon Goddess’s magic and blasphemed Her name had blessed the Outcast Alpha.
He’d repaid the favor with his tongue, evident by her sweet slick all over his face. A face that I was about to smash in.
My wolf both wanted to kill her and claim her for this.
While it wasn’t uncommon for our females to mate multiple males, they never took multiple alphas to their nest.
There was no room in a mate pack for more than one leader.
The fact that she’d mated all of the alphas at the High Moon Ceremony was an insult.
But to also mate the Outcast Alpha who should be dead?
How far would she take this blasphemy before I ripped out her heart and ate it in front of her?
The other alpha didn’t seem very concerned that I had put all of my anger into my punch. It was enough force to decapitate most wolves.
Yet my fist passed straight through him just as he vanished.
What the fuck?
No, he hadn’t vanished. He’d moved so quickly that even I hadn’t been able to track his movements.
Even with my exceptional sight and reflexes, this alpha had the full blessing of the Moon Goddess.
And it showed.
Growling, I tried again, this time working with the other alphas to attempt to corner him.
Vern came from behind the massive alpha, going low to get to his legs. But our enemy had no issue side-stepping the attack he shouldn’t have even seen coming.
He moved straight into Dash’s path, but the Soldier wolf had a pathetically predictable fight pattern and was easily evaded.
