Helanie:
Lamar and I knew we had to join the others. They didn’t deserve to be attacked by the lycan.
"Everyone, back to the cabin!" yelled Rudy, causing Lamar and me to exchange a brief glance before the terror of the lycan heading our way hit us.
Sage and the others were now running toward the cabin. They started to catch up with us. I saw Penn carrying Rayden on his back, making his way to the cabin.
"Ahhhhh!" Sydney’s scream made us all slow down. We all turned at once and saw Sydney on the ground with the lycan on top of her.
It was snarling and howling.
"Sydney!" Salem screamed, rushing to her sister’s side. freēwēbnovel.com
Penn kept running toward the cabin while Rudy squared up, gesturing for Sage to grab the weapons.
"You two, behind the tree. Hold the chain," Rudy yelled at Lamar and me.
We both realized we had reached the spot where we’d planned to trap the lycan.
"I don’t think he’s attacking!" I yelled to get Rudy’s attention, but he didn’t listen. He grabbed the arrow and shot at the lycan. As he fired, the lycan swiped its arm and deflected the arrow.
Now that he was under attack, with Sage stabbing him in the back, he lost control.
The lycan swung its arm and hurled Sage to the ground, far away.
"Hold the chain!" Lamar said to me.
I looked at the chain but didn’t move a muscle.
It was too late for us. Lamar took over and dropped the cage on the lycan.
However, the moment the cage landed on the lycan, the monster shoved it off.
At that moment, we all exchanged a glance and realized we’d underestimated its strength and power.
The lycan must have been provoked by everyone attacking it, but now it was lashing out at anyone in its path.
Even with Rudy firing an arrow at the lycan, it leaped at Rudy and knocked him to the ground.
"Lamar, get away from the tree!" I yelled the moment I saw the lycan trying to move toward the side of the tree.
I even ran to the front and grabbed a sword from the ground in case I needed to defend myself.
I sprinted behind the lycan, positioning myself to stab him in the back, but my hands started to shake.
All I could think about was the night I had felt the mate bond with him.
As I hesitated, the lycan became aware of me standing behind him and turned to face me.
He snarled even louder and charged at me. My hands trembled, my ears rang. I should have attacked—just enough to distract him—but I couldn’t do it.
Even though the lycan in front of me was a monster, I couldn’t bring myself to hurt him because he was my mate.
He growled, saliva dripping from his mouth with every step he took closer to me.
I tripped onto my back and began crawling backward.
