Logan POV
She was glowing!
Her hair started rising up like it was electrified. Sparks were flying from her skin. The temperature in the room started rising rapidly.
She looked magical! She was magical!
She unlocked it!
I was so entranced by her that I didn’t even realize that she jumped off the bed and flew out the window.
The window broke, and the glass flew around the room.
She shifted mid-air, and I could swear that her wolf wasn’t white anymore! It was silver!
‘Go!’ Leon screamed
I flinched, jumped up, and flew out through the window. I shifted before I hit the ground.
My paws hit the ground with a thud, and I started running after my mate.
She was so fucking fast! Was her wolf a little bit bigger than usual?
‘Just go, Logan!’ Leon screamed at me. ‘Run faster! There is no time for that now!’
I listened to him and pushed myself to run faster.
She was so fucking fast! I was having trouble keeping up with her.
Fuck! I couldn’t let her do this by herself! She needed to wait for me!
If he hurt her...
If he took her...
No!
I growled and forced my legs to move faster. My paws were hitting the ground with so much force that I could swear the ground around me was shaking. The trees around me were a blur. Everything around me was a blur.
I kept my eyes on the glowing wolf in front of me. I kept my focus entirely on her.
Emma! I mind-linked her. Slow down!
No! She growled back. I am not letting him hurt them! I am not letting him hurt my family!
My legs wouldn’t move faster. I was giving it my all, and she was still faster than me.
We are not letting him hurt our family! I mind-linked her back. You are not alone in this, but you need to slow down a little. I can’t keep up with you.
She glanced toward me, and I could see her eyes widen a little.
But how? She mumbled. You are faster than me.
Not anymore, baby. I said. You have magic now.
She slowed down a little, allowing me to catch up to her.
Can you feel it? I asked her as we continued to run side by side.
I don’t know. She mumbled. I didn’t even notice it. I’m just so angry.
That’s probably what unlocked it. Her magic was pushed out by her rage.
She started running faster, leaving me a little behind.
I couldn’t let her face him alone. She did find some magic within herself, but she didn’t even know how to use it. It was completely new, and she was angry. That wasn’t a good combination. She could get hurt.
I pushed myself to run faster. My legs were shaking, and my paws started to hurt. I’ve never run this fast before. I didn’t even know if I would be able to keep up the pace. But I had to. I couldn’t let her face him alone.
We were flying through the forest. If we continued like that, we would be back at the packhouse in half an hour.
Suddenly, I felt a surge or energy rush through my body. The pain in my legs and my paws disappeared. My muscles felt energized. I started running faster. I started running with ease. It felt like someone gave me a little nudge.
What the...?
It had to be something that Emma did!
What did you do? I mind-linked Emma.
What? She asked, glancing at me.
She wasn’t even aware of it.
I was feeling tired, and suddenly I got this burst of energy. I said as I jumped over a fallen tree.
Really? She asked, surprised. I felt that you were getting tired, and I wanted to give you some of my energy. I didn’t think it would work.
I knew it! It was her! She was so fucking powerful!
But she wasn’t even aware of it. She didn’t know what she was doing. That could be so dangerous. She could get hurt. He could hurt her. He could use her magic against her.
I need you to stay with me at all times, Emma. I told her. I can’t let you get hurt now.
She growled loudly. Sparks were flying off her paws, scattering all over the ground as she ran.
I have magic now. She said coldly. He can’t hurt me.
This was what I was afraid of. She was too angry. She was way too angry to think rationally.
You don’t know how to use it, Emma. I said, jumping to my left to avoid a tree. You need to be careful.
Alpha Nathan is the one who should have been more careful! Emma growled.
Shit.
Andrew! I mind-linked my Beta.
We were already close enough for us to talk through the mind-link.
Logan. He said, his voice laced with worry and pain. We can’t let him take...
Listen to me! I interrupted him. Emma has magic! It’s incredible! I don’t know what happened! She got angry and something happened.
What? Andrew mumbled.
We are on our way. I said. She is flying through the forest. I couldn’t keep up with her, and then she used her magic and gave me some of her energy!
She gave you... He spoke, but I interrupted him again.
There is no time to explain. I said. I wanted to let you know so we could keep an eye on her. She doesn’t know how to use it. She could get hurt.
Fuck. Andrew mumbled.
Is Daisy okay? I asked worriedly.
She is scared. Andrew said. I am terrified. I am afraid to move. I can’t kill him. We are all just standing here helplessly. He is crazy, Logan. If he hurts them...
Andrew stopped talking.
He won’t. I said as I forced my legs to move faster. We won’t let him, Andrew. He won’t hurt your mate, or your child. I promise.
Andrew didn’t respond.
I noticed that we were close. We were maybe ten minutes away.
We are coming, Andrew. I mind-linked him.
I let the anger flow through my body and fuel every part of me.
I was going to kill that motherfucker as soon as I got the chance!
