Chapter 0223

My body trembled in fear as I saw the shift begin to happen… I knew it the moment the color of hiseyes changed. We were in trouble. Bones twisting, dislocating into position… they had a plan… himand 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 Milesformally mark me, I was still officially a part of my own pack, and still able to communicate throughthe 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 hadgrowled at us, in an attempt to defend me. As sweet as that may be, it was not the right thing to dowhen he would not stand a chance against a fucking Alpha! Not just any Alpha either, but a fuckingcrazed one… he stood no chance unless we got back up. I felt tears filling my eyes as I prayed thathelp came, if not, I knew that in going for Miles, Jacob was in theory signing his own deathwarrant...

I heard that familiar snapping and twisting of bones, a sound I had never been so terrified ofhearing. As the pair of them altered into their wolf forms… Miles that of an Alpha and Jacob that ofa warrior. Both strong and skilled… and both ready to attack… as they flew at one another… neitherone 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 Idid. But there was nothing. Nobody seemed to be coming to help, as the two wolves in front of megrowled and snarled at one another aggressively. Wrestling one another to the ground. Paws wereswiping across one another’s bodies as blood was spraying everywhere, already beginning to stainthe walls. Both wolves were snapping aggressively, showing their dominance. Both determined totake the other down…

“Miles, stop!” I screamed again. “This is not his fault. It is mine. Just deal with me. Not him.” Isobbed, and the unfamiliar wolf turned to look at me curiously, giving the tanned warrior wolf ofJacob an advantage momentarily. He flew for his neck, jaws opened, and teeth bared, hoping to gofor 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 theground. And, I felt myself crying out, in sympathy. Jacob was bleeding heavily, when they had bothalready been covered in a number of deep bites and gashes from their fight. I knew now, this wasnot 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 didnot 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 constantassault. Both wolves were fierce in their attack, as they bit and scratched in a bid to bring the otherwolf down. I knew I could shift to help, but I knew my own wolf was of no challenge to Miles. Not tomention I feared they might then kill me too…

Suddenly there were footsteps along the corridor as my Dad’s voice called out. “Kaia?” he soundedpanicked. “Are you okay?”
