The Witch And The Alpha
My warriors stood frozen, confused, caught between orders and instinct.
"What are you doing?" Draeven roared, shoving me off. "She has power, knowledge we can use."
The witch, Lyseth, I realized I didn't even know her name until that moment, collapsed against one of the stones. Blood poured from the wound in her side, too much blood. Her face had gone white.
"You've killed us both," she whispered, looking at Draeven with something like pity.
Then she looked at me.
"I'm sorry," she said. "This wasn't how it was supposed to happen."
