Shifted Fate (by Alicia S Rivers) novel Chapter 634

Chapter 634

I watched to say something else, but the wolf attached to me started to shake. At first I thought it was trying to tear out my throat, but realized its jaws released and it was shaking still. I opened my jaws and jerked back, but the wolf just fell to the ground. The shaking grew in intensity, and then it started to foam at the mouth. It reminded me of a dog with rabies, but we couldn’t catch rabies.

“It’s the wolfsbane and silver.” Rowan’s voice caught me off guard, and I spun. He was standing behind me, watching the wolf. “I think the vials were to coat the teeth, as another weapon, but if they aren’t careful enough, and swallow some of the contents. This is what will happen.

They boil themselves from the inside.”

I grimaced as i turned back. “It looks painful.”

“It is.” He nodded.

I saw Sequan take a hit, and go down. I sprinted over, tackling the wolf on top of him. Before I even had a thought, Nix had ripped out the wolfs throat, and we were moving on. Wolf after wolf we fought. I lost count after forty, and that was before we even reached the circle. I was growing tired, exhausted really, but I heard a sound that turned my blood cold.

Somewhere over to my right, in front of the pack house, I heard my mother scream. Not howl, not yelp, but scream.

The exhaustion I was feeling vanished, and I took off. I heard Sequan and Rowan both screaming after me, but Iwasn’t going to wait for them.

Stupid?

Why yes, yes it was.

I didn’t care, though. I moved faster than I ever had before.

A wolf turned and saw me coming and decided it was smart to try to attack. But I didn’t have time for him. He dove for me, and I launched myself into the air. My front paw landed on his face, but I pushed off of him, slamming him into the dirt and using his body as a springboard to get over the fighting wolves.

“AMY!” Rowan screamed. But I was already running on the backs of fighting wolves.
