Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0223

My body trembled in fear as I saw the shift begin to happen… I knew it the moment the color of his eyes changed. We were in trouble. Bones twisting, dislocating into position… they had a plan… him and his wolf. Miles was going to attack… I think he planned to hurt Jacob… maybe even me… terror rushed through me. Jacob and I would stand no chance against him...

‘Daddy!’ I mindlinked my Dad, so glad I had yet to break the pack link yet, with not having Miles formally mark me, I was still officially a part of my own pack, and still able to communicate through the pack link. ‘Help! Miles is shifting. I think he is going to attack me, or Jacob. In the packhouse. Help!’

I tried to pull Jacob back, though he too had already moved toward Miles the moment he had growled at us, in an attempt to defend me. As sweet as that may be, it was not the right thing to do when he would not stand a chance against a fucking Alpha! Not just any Alpha either, but a fucking crazed one… he stood no chance unless we got back up. I felt tears filling my eyes as I prayed that help came, if not, I knew that in going for Miles, Jacob was in theory signing his own death warrant...

I heard that familiar snapping and twisting of bones, a sound I had never been so terrified of hearing. As the pair of them altered into their wolf forms… Miles that of an Alpha and Jacob that of a warrior. Both strong and skilled… and both ready to attack… as they flew at one another… neither one holding back. Both seeking their revenge.

“No!” I screamed at the top of my voice, hoping I would draw some attention from those outside if I did. But there was nothing. Nobody seemed to be coming to help, as the two wolves in front of me growled and snarled at one another aggressively. Wrestling one another to the ground. Paws were swiping across one another’s bodies as blood was spraying everywhere, already beginning to stain the walls. Both wolves were snapping aggressively, showing their dominance. Both determined to take the other down…

“Miles, stop!” I screamed again. “This is not his fault. It is mine. Just deal with me. Not him.” I sobbed, and the unfamiliar wolf turned to look at me curiously, giving the tanned warrior wolf of Jacob an advantage momentarily. He flew for his neck, jaws opened, and teeth bared, hoping to go for the kill, but Miles’s wolf was too quick to react and moved in his counteraction. Pulling back, slashing along the flank of Jacob’s wolf with his claws, causing him to whimper, bringing him to the ground. And, I felt myself crying out, in sympathy. Jacob was bleeding heavily, when they had both already been covered in a number of deep bites and gashes from their fight. I knew now, this was not going to end well. We needed help!

I was scared for both of them. I did not want a fight. Not over me. This would be to the death if I did not stop them! “Miles!” I tried again, in the desperate hope he would be distracted as he had before, but this time his wolf did not even pause in his attack on Jacob’s wolf. He continued the constant assault. Both wolves were fierce in their attack, as they bit and scratched in a bid to bring the other wolf down. I knew I could shift to help, but I knew my own wolf was of no challenge to Miles. Not to mention I feared they might then kill me too…

Suddenly there were footsteps along the corridor as my Dad’s voice called out. “Kaia?” he sounded panicked. “Are you okay?”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
