FATED TO HER CURSED HYBRID STEPBROTHER
She thrashed, screamed, eyes wide with horror, but he loomed over her, snarling like a madman.
Rage exploded through me, and I didn't think.
I lunged with my full hybrid strength, grabbing him by the collar and flung him across the room. He flew like a broken puppet, slamming into a wickery shelf.
Wood shards flew, and he crumpled, groaning, blood trickling from his split lip.
I rushed to Maeve, dropping to my knees beside her.
"Maeve, it's me. You're safe."
I wasn’t even sure she could hear me, but my hands began to work the ropes, freeing her arms gently. She looked up at me, relief flooding her face, but then her eyes rolled back.
