  Lyra's POV Then a hush fell over the field. The wind whistled through the trees, brushing through the tall grass like it was trying to warn us to turn back now.  But it was too late for that. I had already stepped forward, the weight of every eye behind me pressing into my back. Then Ben stepped out from among his soldiers like a king approaching the gallows.  I squared my shoulders and locked eyes with him. “Well, well, well,” Ben’s voice carried across the open field like oil over water. “So Orion sent the little girl in his place. The

Lyra's POVBen’s voice rang out across the field, loud and arrogant. “Did you really think you stood a chance, Ravenna?” he sneered. “Or that a silver bullet was enough to kill me? Not when I have a witch by my side.”He spread his arms, showing off his unscarred chest, "The gods have decided the victor of this battle right before it began, and the coins of the oracle have been tossed in my favour."“You can still end this, Ravenna," he said, "Your pack doesn’t have to die for Orion’s cowardice.

    Lyra's POV "Be careful what you wish for,” Kira said. “Learn from Ravenna. She’s in a pit so deep, she’s never getting out.” I didn’t respond. I just turned back to brushing my teeth, pretending her words didn’t rattle something inside me. But they did.  After a moment, I turned to Kate and asked, “Do you smoke?” She looked surprised. “I used to. Why?” I nodded slowly and smiled. “You should stop.” Then I winked at her. 

Lyra's POVMy hands moved on instinct, with my claws coming out of my fingers as it soared through the air, jaws open wide, I met it halfway, and caught it with my both hands clamping around its bloodstained snout.It snarled, twisting midair, but I held firm. My fingers drew themselves up against the edge of its mouth, and with a horrendous roar of effort, I wrenched its jaws open beyond that allowed by nature.An ugly crack bore into the air through the forest.The beast suddenly collapsed; it twitched once and then went still.Blood splattered across my arms and chest. I was standing over it, chest rising and falling, muscles humming in residual adrenaline.Behind me came a choking gasp from Kate.I slowly turned around, wiping my cheek behind the back of my hand.Her eyes were wide. “What the hell did I just witness?”I shrugged. “Guess I was hungry.”She blinked. “You snapped its
