The Alpha King's Mate

“Iris!” I turn towards the voices that called my name, almost not making it out due to the sheer amount of snarling and growling happening around me. I see a woman pinned by a ravaging wolf, and as I make my way to her, I am knocked to the ground with such force, I hear my arm snap. I groan as the pain hits me. My arm is clearly broken, and I am unable to shift for some reason. I hear her sickening scream and I raise my head just as the wolf embed its teeth into her neck and shoulder. “NO!” I roar and scramble to my feet, but I am surrounded by at least 10 wolves, preventing me from getting to the woman. My eyes dart around as they compass me, circling slightly. s**t. They are going to all attack me at once. Just as I come to that realisation, they strike. I dodge the first few, but I yell out as one of them clamps down on my leg, ripping out a good chunk of flesh. I try to stay standing, but its useless as more wolves’ barrel into me, not allowing me to regain my stance. They claw me in every direction, and I can’t anticipate the attacks anymore as I fall to my knees with a hard thud. Claws at my back. Claws at my arms. Claws at my legs. There is no escape. I can’t save them. I can’t even save myself.
