They rushed in fast, it was like they had been waiting for that signal.“Hold them!” Darius roared and his voice broke through the chaos but it was not enough.There were too many, fire spread behind us and smoke filled my lungs.I coughed and my eyes stung and then I wiped them.I looked around and everything blurred, shapes moved, shadows clashed and blood shone under the firelight.“Lyra!”It was Kael’s voice and it was close and he cut down a man near me.“Stay with me!”“I am here!” I shouted but my voice felt lost and Darius stepped in from the other side.“Behind us!” he said.“I am not hiding!”“You are not thinking!”“I am fighting!”Another wave hit and we moved together, three of us, back to back, for a second, just a second and then it broke again.A blade came at me and I bl

    The Alliance That Breaks PrideLyra’s POV“Then we remove the problem ourselves.”Her words sat in my chest, it was heavy and sharp and for a second, no one moved and then everything broke.“Enough!”Darius’s voice cut through the hall, it was loud, hard and final and the walls seemed to shake with it.“No one touches her,” he said and his eyes burned as he looked at Serena and then at the she-wolf beside her and then at the rest of the pack.“Anyone who tries,” he added, “answers to me.”Silence fell but it was not calm, it was tight, like something was ready to snap.Serena did not step back, she did not lower her gaze, she only smiled.“You cannot fight everyone,” she said.“I do not need to,” Darius replied.“I only need to stand.”“And if they stop standing with you?”He did not answer but I saw it, that flicker, that doubt, it was small but was there and my chest tightened.This was going too far, and too fast and then Kael stepped forward.“This is not helping,” he said and his
