Lila's POV:
“What do you want?” I asked, trying to remain calm. I wasn't scared; I knew I could handle them myself, but I needed to be careful.
“Where’s that puny Wolf savior of yours?” He demanded. “I don’t see him around, so she must be all alone.” Someone behind him said.
“He wasn’t so puny when you nearly peed your pants earlier.” I retorted, trying to think of a way to create a distraction. I wasn’t weak, but I knew my limits. I could take them on, but it would definitely cost me some bones.
I didn’t have a chance to think because the Leader lunged himself at me, but I was able to push him aside.
Without warning, three massive panthers, their fur black as midnight, emerged from behind me. Their yellow eyes that glowed like embers in the dark were locked onto mine.
‘f**k! How did they transform so fast?’
I barely had time to react as I rolled to the side when one out of the three Panthers lunged forward, its claws slashing the air where I had just been. I scrambled to my feet, drawing the dagger I had kept hidden underneath my skirt. I tried hard to steady my breath as they formed a circle around me.
Slowly, I stood up, glancing from my left to my right. Taking a deep breath, I extended my dagger, ready for anyone who wanted to come at me. Two Panthers ran towards me and I slashed them on their necks one after the other with the dagger but one of their claws successfully made its way to my stomach and I got wounded badly.
‘s**t!’ I cursed, staring down at my tummy.
Suddenly three more Panthers came at me, I stabbed one on the tummy, the second in the back but the third successfully pushed the dagger off to the ground.
“The fierce little witch isn’t as fierce as I thought. Where are your witchcraft powers?” She teased, a mocking smile on her lips. “Come on, you bitc—” Her words were cut off as she was suddenly thrown to the wall. No one saw who threw her because it was the work of witchcraft.
Before another one could come towards me, I snapped his neck from where I stood muttering a few incantations under my breath.
One more came and I broke both of her legs and she screamed out in pain as she fell to the ground. I got too excited at my victory that I failed to see the Leader who had sneaked up from behind and punched me. His punch threw me to the wall and I landed heavily on the ground.
I spat out blood, but I was still able to Stand up. Although the fall had affected my legs. I limped towards him, while wiping the blood off with my shirt sleeves
“It's just the two of us left.” He announced.
‘One on one.’
He growled and sped towards me, he gave me a punch in the chin, one in the tummy where I was badly wounded which made me spit out a mouthful of blood and the last punch landed on my Jaw. With my last bit of strength, I pushed him aside and began to take deep breaths.
Suddenly, someone landed on the ground from the roof above. The moonlight made it difficult to see, so I squinted my eyes.
“How?” I thought, too weak to call out to him. f**k! I don't even know his name, I will just call him blue eyes.
“Need some help?” He asked.
“I can handle it myself, thanks.” I replied, forcing myself to speak. I really didn't want help from him because I hated being indebted to people, I was already indebted to him once before but not a second time.
Suddenly, two Panther Shifters had stood up from the ground, they had already recovered from their wounds.
‘They must be among the higher levels, that's why they were able to heal themselves so fast.’ I thought aloud.
One jumped and landed before blue eyes, and with just one punch blue eyes threw him into the wall and it came crashing to the ground. The second also came forward but he was thrown into the garbage can.
Only the leader was left. I expected a long and fierce fight but blue eyes had kicked him just once in the tummy, then he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
“A bunch of weaklings.” Blue eyes muttered, dusting off his hands before making his way to me.
“Are you okay?” He asked. That was the last thing I heard before my legs gave out, and I collapsed into his arms, then I blacked out.
_____
Waking up, I found myself in an unfamiliar room with a wooden interior, my body was sore and my head was in pain. I winced as I tried to rest my back on the headstand.
I lifted up my hands to check on the wounds from last night but I saw nothing, I also placed my hands on my tummy but still found nothing. The body pains were there but the wounds vanished.
‘I can't believe that he licked my wounds.’ I said to myself. I had no idea how long I waited for someone to come through the door but finally after what seemed like an eternity, the door was pushed open. I wasn't surprised to see Blue eyes walk in, holding a brown bag in his hand while making his way towards me.
The more he got closer, the more I felt a strange sensation bubble up in my tummy, like something was about to burst out of it.
I shut my eyes tightly, as my chest began to tighten, my bones felt weak and my hands felt extremely cold.
I suddenly began to pant heavily, as I heard the subtle voice of the wolf I never thought I had whispered.
‘Mate.’ And my eyes flung open.
The strange sensation that I have been feeling since I saw him suddenly made sense. I was extremely shocked and happy at the same time. If someone so strong is my Mate then I will definitely be saved from Roman and whatever group of people would be coming for me.
Now that it is known by a few people that I am part witch.
But why does he look disappointed?
I am sure he feels the same way I feel, so why does he look disgusted?
