Zion was standing a few feet away from Amaris. He saw Damien beside her, so somehow, he was relieved. He knew she could protect herself, but she was still worried about the situation.
Different creatures surrounded them; werewolves, vampires, a chimera, and hybrids. He didn't expect that they would follow them in the Fae territory.
"We just need the hybrid, Alpha Zion." One of the werewolves said.
"I cannot do that. She's the Luna of the Blue Moon Pack." He answered.
"Then we just have to take her by force." One of the vampires said.
There were twelve of them. There were three werewolves, four vampires, four hybrids, and one chimera surrounded them. The chimera had fresh blood on its mouth, signifying it killed someone.
They heard a girl's scream a while ago; maybe that was the blood from the chimera's mouth. Amaris thought.
"You're from the Waning Moon Pack, and if I am not mistaken, the vampires were from the Silver Coven, right Damien?" Zion asked.
"Yes, led by Cassius Hale." Damien answered.
Amaris smelled a sudden fear coming from one of the vampires. She looked at them to see who it was. A man who was wearing a white shirt and black jeans smelled nothing but greed. The woman beside him with scarlet hair and wearing a blue bodysuit had a scent of anger inside her.
Amaris turned her gaze to the last two vampires. She saw a girl and boy who were dressed in an oversized shirt. They didn't look like someone who could kill, and she smelled fear.
'Don't kill the kids.' She talked to the others using a mind link.
The werewolves shifted, and the vampires growled, showing their fangs to the group. The first to attack was the werewolves on the right side.
Amaris saw Cole and Zoila shift. It was the first time she saw them change into their wolf form. Cole was a huge gray wolf, while Zoila was brownish-red.
Two of them started attacking Zoila, maybe because she was a woman, and they thought she was an easy opponent. But to Amaris' surprise, Zoila's wolf moved so fast. When one of her attackers was just a few feet away, she jumped above, landing on top of it, then bit the black wolf on his neck. It fell on the ground, and she saw the wolf wasn't moving anymore.
Zoila did the same with the other one. Amaris heard cracking bones on the wolf's neck before Zoila threw it in the air.
At the same time, Cole's opponent was bigger than the other two, but his wolf was enormous. In one swift move, he was able to pin down the enemy, impaling it with his sharp teeth.
"Attack them!" The woman vampire ordered the two kids who were trembling from fear.
"B-But-" The girl stammered.
"Attack! Or I will kill you like your sister!" The woman yelled.
The kids growled and suddenly ran towards Amaris. She knew they were doing it because of fear for their safety.
'Nobody moves. I'll take care of it.' She said in the mind link.
Amaris' eyes turned bloody red, and Zion saw her nails grow longer, forming into claws.
When the girl was in front of Amaris, she grabbed her by the neck, piercing one of her claws in her. Then she put her down gently on the ground. The boy got scared but didn't back down. He still attacked Amaris, biting her left arm.
Zion saw her bleeding, but Amaris stopped him when she saw that he was about to run towards her.
Amaris just pierced one of her claws to the boy's neck then he also fell to the ground.
The hybrids didn't attack and fled into the woods one by one. The chimera, however, ran towards Amaris, but Maxine was able to kill it by shooting an arrow through its chest, killing it instantly.
The two vampires growled again and were about to attack, but Zion burned them with his flames.
"Everyone alright?" Zion asked.
They nodded. Then Amaris crouched down to check on the kids.
"What did you do to them?" Damien asked.
"I just put them to sleep." She answered.
Zion rushed into her, grabbing her left arm. It was bleeding. She wasn't a werewolf, and she wasn't sure she also had healing powers. It wasn't her original body, and from her understanding, she could still experience a normal Terran's sickness and pain.
"I'm fine. I brought a first aid kit in case something like this happened." She murmured.
She instructed Grakar to bring the kids to a separate tent and guard them. Then Zion carried her inside the tent.
"It's not healing." He whispered.
"Love, my body is not immortal, only my anima, remember?" She answered.
Zion suddenly got anxious. He forgot that it wasn't her real body, and it could still bleed and get hurt.
"Ah!" She screamed.
Amaris flinched from the pain. She was confused why a small bite from a little vampire would hurt too much.
"Love, what is it?" Zion was startled when she creamed.
"I-It's painful! Ah!" She screamed again.
"Damien!" Zion shouted, using his Alpha voice enough to be heard by everyone.
Damien came rushing into their tent and saw Amaris breathing rapidly and sweating all over.
"What's happening to her?" Zion asked.
Damien crouched down and checked Amaris' wounds. He frowned when he saw that it was swollen and turned violet. A vampire bite wasn't like this.
"This isn't a vampire bite!" Damien said.
"Then what is it?" Zion asked, confused.
"Ah! Zion!" Amaris screamed again from the pain.
"Love! Damien, do something! Figure it out! If it's not a vampire bite, then what is it?" Zion yelled.
Then someone came inside the tent. It was Halia, one of the ten Elysian Elders and the current clan leader of the Fae Clan.
"Ah! Zion!" Amaris screamed again from the pain.
"Take her to the clan house! I need to check on her wound!" Halia said.
Zion didn't say a word and quickly carried Amaris outside, following Halia.
