POV: Tamara Davis
She was so worried about Shahara. She was totally mad right now just by hearing that her parents were in a critical condition.
Who would not have gotten angry when after everything that happened to them – this happened next.
Could there be any peace?
How could someone do something like this?!
Even she was just in rage.
She couldn’t believe that something like this could happen.
“Who did this, Dreyson?” Her voice was cold and emotionless.
Every minute that passed, she could feel her inner wolf was already at bay, and at any moment she could burst. She was hoping that what happened to her in the woods wouldn’t happen now. It was just too traumatizing.
But seeing Shahara’s reaction now, she was afraid that she might lose control again.
And that was the last thing that she wanted to happen right now.
“Shahara, you must calm down.” The good doctor tried to be near her, but she stepped away.
She saw how shocked Doc Dreyson was – but what caught her the most was the pain that crossed his eyes.
“Just tell me who they are, Dreyson.” Her voice was threatening, and she and Doc Dreyson shared a knowing look before it moved towards Shahara.
With one look, she just knew it. Shahara was at the point of losing control again. And this was an ominous omen.
“Uh, stay here and I’ll get you a glass of water. Okay? Then, let’s discuss what happens. Tamara… wait for me, okay?” Doc Dreyson started to panic a little and gave her a knowing look before he moved towards the nurse station.
He must get medicine or whatsoever to calm Shahara down before something happens again.
But her thoughts suddenly went blank the moment the doctor turned his back at them, Shahara instantly ran away from the infirmary to God knows where.
“Damn it!” Tamara uttered in a low whisper.
With her reflexes getting enhanced, she swiftly ran after Shahara.
“Shahara, wait!” She loudly called her, but she was going to where the sentinel wolves were.
She was getting so worried – that she had no other choice but to follow her.
Perhaps Doc Dreyson could do something when he noticed that they were gone.
She tried to cope with her rapid speed after she turned into her wolf.
Her heart was beating so fast because of worry and fear. She must stop Shahara. She must stop her from getting out of control again.
She didn’t know how far they were getting into. All she knew was she could sense someone following their every track.
Fear started to creep into her system – as she felt like there was something odd about it.
They took an abrupt stop the moment they heard some leering wolves around them. Shahara let out a loud growl – asking who the hell they were – and black salivating rouges came out of the lofty trees.
She felt her inner wolf snarl inside… out of doubt and fear.
There were about ten rogues surrounding them. She feared that Shahara would act irrationally, and this happened. Her heart was beating wildly inside her chest.
Who are these rogues? – Tamara mentally thought as she was trying to calm her nerves down.
They were outnumbered, alright.
And given by the expression of these rogues – they seemed out of their minds and unstoppable.
‘This is not good…’ Tamara mentally thought – as she growled at Shahara.
It seemed like she understood that Shahara let out another loud growl – as if telling the rogues to stay away from them, but the rogues just equaled her cries with an eerie one causing the birds to fly away from their nests.
Her heart began to beat crazily.
She knew that she was afraid – not just for herself but also for Shahara.
Shahara’s wolf sneered at her and nodded her head towards somewhere.
With their minds linking together, they instantly ran towards where Shahara had told her to go.
They were running for their lives. She never knew that she could be this fast, a little faster than Shahara now. But she also felt that the ones after them were just a few meters away.
But they took an unexpected stop when they reached the brighter part of the place.
It was a high rocky cliff. It was so high, but there was a river below.
They saw the rogues nearing them with their bared canines – ready to attack them.
Tamara let out a loud curse inside her head.
If they chose to fight, she didn’t know how long they’d do it because they were surely outnumbered. She couldn’t count how many of them there were. She just felt that a lot of them were still secretly hiding in the woods.
If they jumped into the river, she didn’t know whether they’d be safe because of the rocks that were sharper than a knife. They might face a sudden death without even fighting for their lives.
Her wolf let out a loud frustrated growl.
But before she could even decide, she saw an arrow moving towards Shahara and had hit her body. She let out a painful loud roar.
She was panting hard, and her heart was bursting with emotions.
Little did she know, Tamara’s eyes were starting to turn bloody red.
The shock it gave her crept into her heart and mind, and she trembled with an unadulterated fury.
She watched how Shahara stepped back – causing her to fall onto the cliff!
Her mind was shouting Shahara’s name, but the intensifying emotion inside her was like burning her all over. Her body convulsed with the scorching sensation that covered her entire body…
Her wolf let out a loud roar because of the excruciating pain she felt…
It was too overwhelming…
And she unconsciously stepped back…
Her head was throbbing so hard, and before another arrow shot at her, she also had fallen into the depths of the rocky cliff.
And it seemed to happen too fast – that she didn’t know what else happened next.
