Chapter 41: The Council's Warning
(Elena POV)
The world fell apart.
Lucian lunged forward and hit the first cultist who jumped at me. He changed direction in the air with a roar that shook the trees. The others ran away, their faces twisted in shock as the Lycan Alpha tore through them with a rage I'd never seen from him before.
Elias grabbed my arm and pulled me back. "Elena, go! "Run!"
I tried, but the ground shook.
A cold, rippling, unnatural pulse of energy spread through the clearing, freezing the air solid.
The cultists stopped right away.
In perfect unison, every one of them turned their heads up to the sky, as if they were following a command I couldn't hear.
Lucian also froze, his hair standing on end and his gold eyes blazing.
"What are they up to?" I said quietly.
Eli
