Helanie:
He used his strength to push me back and get on his feet when Cora suddenly started to howl louder than ever. In seconds, clouds started to fill the sky, roaring and lightning flashing through them.
The crowd looked up and gasped.
With a roar that shook the air, Darius lunged at me. His claws slashed, but I was faster—much faster. I darted to the side, my body moving like liquid. The crowd screamed in awe, their eyes wide as they watched the two of us clash in a whirlwind.
We circled each other, growling, eyes locked. He tried to get the upper hand, snapping at me with deadly intent, but I could feel the power in every strike I made, every move I took. My body was made for this fight, made to dominate.
He swiped at my throat, but I ducked, slamming my body into his with a force that knocked him off balance.
Darius was struggling now, his moves slow, unsure. His pride had always been his strength, but it was slipping. I was breaking through his defenses, one strike at a time.
He staggered back, growling in frustration. The fight had been going on for what felt like hours, the ground beneath us soaked with rain, and so were we.
I charged, my claws cutting through the air faster than I had before.
He barely had time to react as I slammed into him with a force that sent him tumbling backward. He hit the ground hard, a shocked gasp escaping his lips.
I stabbed him in the chest with my claws and saw his eyes widen. The crowd went completely silent at the brutality.
He began to gulp and sputter blood out of his mouth. He tried to move his claws around to slash my skin, but his claws could barely do any damage. My skin had turned into something solid.
"Please," he wheezed, struggling to lift his head, blood staining his fur. His eyes were wide with something I had never seen before—fear. Real fear. "Please... don’t... don’t do this."
We both transitioned back, only wearing shorts and a top, and he was only in black shorts. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
I stood over him, my chest rising and falling with each breath, my claws growing and disappearing like it was that easy. He was on his knees now, his once strong posture broken, the cocky smile that used to haunt my nightmares nowhere to be seen.
I knelt down and clawed his thigh, my fingers digging into his skin, my claws going deeper and deeper.
"Ahhhh!" he screamed in agony. "Stop—your claws are—burning my insides!"
He began to wiggle like a worm on the ground.
"Have mercy on the lad," his father got up from the crowd and started crying.
"Please, son, surrender!" he cried even more.
At this point, no one was making a noise.
"Remember how you tortured me that night?" I hissed at him, blocking his father’s pleas.
