A snarl drew my consideration to the struggle earlier than I might reply.

Shepard had gotten off MC, and as MC did a kip up off the bottom. Shepard glanced at me.

“I’m nice,” I stated softly, realizing he’d heard Vena’s query.

His gaze instantly returned to MC. So did mine.

MC’s yellow wolf eyes have been unmistakable now. He snarled at Shepard and lunged for him once more. He was a blur, however so was Shepard. I waited for the sound of their impression, however it by no means occurred. When MC reached the place Shepard ought to have been, he stopped and spun round simply in time to greet Shepard’s fist together with his face.

Vena’s hand caught mine as I winced on the sound of a crunch and the recent wash of blood coming from MC’s nostril. She didn’t say something as we each watched.

MC introduced his arms up, defending his face. As he did, I noticed hair begin to sprout on his forearms. Not a heavy coat like a canine however nonetheless thick and some inches lengthy. With the hair got here heavier muscle mass.

I glanced at Vena. She met my gaze, displaying somewhat of her shock too. In all the episodes of The Different Home, we’d by no means seen the werewolf shifting. We simply knew he was the werewolf due to his sight, pace, and sense of odor.

“Concede earlier than you’re damage,” Shepard stated.

“You’ve acquired that backward,” MC snarled.

His hand whipped out, loopy quick, and his newly sprouted darkish claws grazed Shepard’s abdomen. Purple slashes appeared of their wake, and I gripped Vena’s hand arduous. Shepard grunted however didn’t step again from MC. As an alternative, Shepard took benefit of the opening to drive his fist into MC’s ribs once more.

I heard the crack from the place I stood and winced once more.

“Should not be for much longer,” Doc stated softly beside me.

MC snarled and spun away from Shepard. Extra hair sprouted on MC’s torso, and his muscle mass thickened beneath it. His nostril stopped bleeding when it elongated together with his mouth into extra of a muzzle.

Did altering heal them?

In wolf kind, MC nonetheless maintained his stability on two toes. He was an enormous, muscular beast that didn’t conform to the physique form of the wild wolves within the forest however saved his human construction for probably the most half. Solely bigger, furrier, and wolf facial options.

I glanced at Shepard, who nonetheless regarded very human, together with the bleeding gashes on his aspect.

Why wasn’t he altering?

“You’re going to wish to do higher than that,” Shepard stated as his gashes slowly began to shut.

He dove for MC. I heard the hits however didn’t see them occur…solely the aftermath.

MC was left standing, panting and spitting out blood because of his newly damaged wolf-nose. It didn’t appear like he can be sniffing Vena any time quickly.

“Say you’re achieved,” Shepard growled. “Time to finish this.”

“You’re proper, we do want to finish this,” MC stated with a snarl.

He shadowed Shepard’s motion, sidestepping to remain dealing with Shepard. As MC drew nearer to us, Doc put out his arm and pressed Vena and me farther again.

I used to be grateful. The very last thing I needed was to unintentionally get in the way in which of these two combating.

My cellphone buzzed with a message. Not taking my eyes off the struggle, I pulled it from my pocket.

“A great chief is aware of when it’s time to step down,” MC stated. “You’ve fucked up D.C. sufficient. What’s your pack going to assume after they discover out you’re working with vampires?”

There was a puff from the ladies current and growls from the remainder.

“See?” MC stated together with his again virtually to us. “They don’t prefer it. Step down, and let me handle the vampire drawback since you’ll be able to’t.”

My cellphone buzzed once more, and I lastly glanced down.
