Chapter 135

Jaden

Struggling and panting, I fight to push Claxton off of me. Suddenly, he pauses and I twist my head to see the Arachne charging towards Hunter, Kara, and Elio. In the midst of the chaos, other members of Claxton’s pack and alphas are locked in battle. Taking advantage of the distraction, I manage to knock Claxton’s wolf form off of me before kicking up a cloud of dirt to temporarily blind him. Adrenaline pumping through my veins, I sprint towards where Stacey and Felicity are fighting for their lives. “Hunter, subdue Claxton now!” I order through the link. Turning my attention back to Stacey, I can see her hair has come loose from her braid. Sweat on her brow makes the few strands stick to her skin. She has several cuts on her arm as she blocks Felicite’s blade to stop her from shredding her dress.

I race to catch up to them, my heart pounding in my chest as I knock Felicity, forcing her to stumble to the ground, her body rolling in the dirt before she springs back up like a cat.
