Chosen By The Moon



Dylan POV

My blade sliced effortlessly through the paw of the lycan that was about to cause some serious damage to my body, and a howl of pain to sounded out from its lips.

I instantly had blood dripping on me from the wound I had created in the wolf, and I all but scrambled out from underneath him. I needed to find another gun.

My head darted around the battle grounds in an attempt to find an abandoned pistol lying on the floor, only the wolf I had previously injured seemed to effortlessly jump over my body and land directly in front of me with a snarl. Slobber dropped from its mouth and goosebumps formed on my arms.

I was terrified.

I froze in place, staring at the Lycan who was obviously solely targeting me. My eyes widened, and a loud gasp left my lips as he once again charged at me.

I always thought it would be the king to finish me off, but as the wolf closed in on my already exhausted form, I couldn't help but brace myself for impact... which never came...

A large recognizable wolf crashed into the one charging at me with a force that knocked both of them completely off kilter.

Gilliards paws skidded on the ground below him, flicking grass and dirt all over me as he slid to a halt, baring his teeth at the other beast before attacking once more.

All these lycans truly were a force to be reckoned with.

I always knew they were stronger

than us, but seeing the fully in action was humbling to say the least. The

e

sheer power of Lewis alone was mesmerizing, however the likes of Oliver and now even Gilliard, we're what really made me realize just how inferior human physical

strength was.

A loud whimper left the wolf that was Gilliard and he fell to the floor on his side, all the while I remained scrambling for a gun. Shit...

I threw my knife with as much force as I could directly at the Lycan stalking towards The Alpha and landed a direct bullseye into his left pupil, instantly blinding him in the one eye.noveldrama

The thing about knives is, that no

matter how accurate you can be with your aim you'll never be able to throw them with enough force to actually fatally prate a Lycan whether they are made out of silver or not. Sure you can do some damage, but you certainly can't maim or fatally injure them. The most you can do is cause enough damage to slow them down.

"Riley!" I heard from behind me only to turn around to find Ryan throwing a gun to my hand.

I caught it and span around aiming it at the large aggressive Lycan when a sickening crack sounded out and with it my heart sank.

The attacker had clamped its strong jaws around Gilliards wolfs torso, snapping his spine from the impact of his teeth. I felt bile rise in my throat as I watched my friend shift back into a human, while blood poured from the puncture wounds that had been created.

I fired the gun, directly at the wolfs chest and watched him howl and turn his attention to me. He bared his blood coated teeth and charged at me again, most likely in searing pain, while I fired two more bullets into his furry flesh.

The lycan crashed to floor in front of me, dead! His wolf transforming into his deceased human body, and my gasp sounded out in shock at who I had just killed.

The kings father!

I had killed the man who had

he

usurped the throne in first place, the one whose rules were created 5 and half years ago, the one man that started the world on this specific path of war, and rebellion. My heart raced in my chest as I fully grasped the impact his death would have on king Josh.
