Semua Bab Betrayed Luna To Alpha Queen: Bab 81 - Bab 90

Laura rolled to the side, pain shooting up her arm as she landed wrong on her injured hand. The shadow wolf's claws raked the ground where she'd been a second before.Dante was already moving, his blade slicing through the air toward the creature's neck. But shadow wolves were fast. Too fast. It twisted away, black eyes fixed on Laura like she was the only prey that mattered."They're drawn to your mark," Dante growled réalisation setting in as he stepped between her and the wolf again. "Stay close to me."Two more shadow wolves emerged from the darkness, their forms seeming to melt from the shadows themselves. Laura's heart hammered against her ribs. Three against two, and she was fighting with one good hand."Left!" she shouted as one of the creatures circled behind Dante.He spun, blade meeting claws in a shower of sparks. The impact sent him staggering back a step. These weren't the ordinary shadow wolves she had fought. They were bigger and stronger.Laura ducked as the first wol

Laura woke to the sound of camp breaking around her. Her shoulder felt better, much better. She unwrapped the bandage on her palm and gasped. The wound had almost completely healed overnight. "What the hell?" she whispered, flexing her fingers. No pain. She touched her shoulder where the shadow wolf had clawed her. Still tender, but the burning sensation was gone. Even the old scratches on her arms looked faded. "About time you woke up," Dante's voice came from outside the tent. "We march in an hour." Laura quickly dressed and stepped outside. The morning air was crisp, and warriors were already loading supplies onto horses. The four Alphas stood together near the center of camp, deep in discussion. "How do you feel?" Lucian asked as she approached. "Better. Much better." Laura held up her healed hand. "Look." Zephyr studied her palm with interest. "The shadow magic is gone from this wound. But your shoulder?" "Still hurts, but less." "Interesting," Nikolai murmured. "Your ma

The moment shattered immediately like glass."How many?" Nikolai's voice turned ice cold. All traces of the tender man who'd just kissed her vanished."At least thirty shadow wolves," Cyrus panted. "Maybe more. They hit the village almost an hour ago."Laura's blood went cold. Thirty shadow wolves could wipe out an entire village in minutes."Get the others," Nikolai ordered. "Now."Cyrus nodded and ran. Within minutes, the tent filled with voices and bodies. Lucian arrived first, his face grim. Dante and Zephyr followed close behind."What's the situation?" Lucian asked."Shadow wolves attacking Millbrook," Nikolai said, already reaching for his weapons. "Small farming village, maybe two hundred people.""How far?" Dante was strapping on his sword."Three hours hard ride.""Too long," Zephyr said quietly. "By the time we get there..."He didn't finish. He didn't need to. They all knew what shadow wolves did to villages."We have to try," Laura said. All four Alphas turned to look at

Laura took a deep breath and stepped out of her tent.All three Alphas were waiting. Lucian stood with his arms crossed, still looking pissed. Nikolai leaned against a post, his face unreadable while Zephyr watched her with those piercing eyes that saw too much."We need to talk," Lucian said."I know." Laura's voice came out smaller than she wanted."What happened today changes everything," Nikolai said quietly. "Your power... it's not just about healing or random burst of power anymore.""I don't understand it either," Laura said. "I just touched him and—""And you brought back his humanity," Zephyr finished. "Do you know what that means?"Laura shook her head."It means every shadow wolf we kill might be someone we could save," Lucian said. His jaw was tight. "It means we might be murdering innocent people."The words hit Laura like a punch. She'd been thinking the same thing all night."It also means you're more important than ever," Nikolai added. "If word gets out about what you

Before Laura could ask what he meant, Zephyr's mouth was on her neck. He kissed and nipped at her skin, making her gasp and shudder in pleasure.His hands roamed her body, exploring every curve through her clothes. Laura arched against him, heat building in her chest. She could feel her pussy throbbing with need."Zephyr," she breathed."Tell me to stop," he said against her throat. "Tell me to stop and I fucking will."Instead, Laura grabbed the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head.Zephyr's chest was lean and strong, marked with scars from training and battle. Laura ran her hands over his skin, feeling him shiver under her touch."You're beautiful," she whispered.Zephyr's eyes went dark. "You have no idea what you do to me."He lifted her onto the table, scattering books and papers. His mouth found hers again as his hands worked at her shirt.When he pulled it over her head, Laura felt exposed. Her mark was glowing softly on her chest and arms.Zephyr stared at the intricat
