Chapter 484
There was a howl in the distance. A call full of pain. We looked at each other and started running towards the
noise. A second howl ripped through the air, only this time, it broke. We sprinted, because the second howl
sounded exhausted, and close to breaking. "We need to make it there." | called to my wolves.
"We will." Nix's breathing was quick gasps at this point. We have been pushing ourselves way too close to the
edge. And if we pushed much more, we would be the ones breaking. But we couldn't leave Rick or his wolf to die.
We broke through to a clearing and stumbled to a stop. "What the fuck?" Megan panted next to us, and she
dropped to her side. | turned to her. "Are you okay?"
"Just tired." She panted for a second before she rolled back to her belly. "What is he doing?"
We turned back to Rick's wolf. He was running around the perimeter of the clearing, and he had obviously been
running for stime. The ground had worn down into a dirt path. Gone was the green grass that the rest of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfield was made out of.
We watched as he stumbled and rolled. | winced, because it was clearly painful, but he let out a new howl,
popped back up and started running again. | couldn't see what was going on, but Megan and Nix both hissed at
what they saw. "What's wrong?" | leaned forward, trying to see, but the brown wolf was on the other side of the
clearing. He stumbled again. This tsomething happened to his paw, but still he hopped up and hobbled on
three legs. "Why doesn't he stop?"
Nix started running towards him, and as we got closer, | heard a buzzing. | whipped around, trying to find the
source, but Nix just kept running towards the hurt wolf. We drew up beside him, and | realized the male was
being chased. Giant bees the size of my thumb were chasing after him, and his poor body was covered in welts.
He glanced our way and | could see he was barely surviving. He sighed. "Is it time?" His voice was choppy, but
resigned. He was ready to let go.
"Tfor what?" | called to him.
He looked at me. "You're the goddess, aren't you? Is it over?" He looked over his shoulder and stumbled over his
foot again. This time, he went down hard. The yelp was painful, but when the bee struck, his howl was
staggering this close. Every sting was torture. "Please let this be over."
"Nix." | slid off her back and she nodded. She ran to his side, earning a sting for herself. We both screamed. The
pain was like being stabbed with a red hot poker. The burning point where the stinger hit was instantly swollen.
But something weird happened. After the pain faded, the rush of power that followed was an amazing rush. "How
is this possible?"
"The rune. The creatures are just a manifestation of the rune. The leech was just that, but this creature. It injects
pure power into someone My grandmother's voice surprised me. "But if a wolf or person is not made to carry
such power it burns away at them until there's nothing. His wolf is at the brink." Nix was at his side, and Megan
was at their side. | watched as another bee went to strike, but Megan took this sting. | screamed again, but then
my mind was a little clearer.
The leech needed to be over fed to clear it out of the three. But that wouldn't work with the bees. Nix looked at
me. "I need help." | nodded as | ran over, earning a sting myself. Both my wolves howled as 10 screamed, but
they looked more awake. "Helpget him on my back." Nix nodded to the wolf below her. | wrapped my arms
around his middle and hefted him onto her back. Once he was secure, she started to run the circuit with him on
her back. Megan ran behind them, taking any bee stings when she could.
"Nix!" She looked at me. "Find out where the bees are coming from." | looked, and every tone bee struck, it
dropped, but another replaced it. The ground was littered with their bodies.
"Somewhere in the woods." She called back turned to run the way we came, but Nix called back to me. "To the
north. They all cfrom the north." | spun around to the opposite side of the clearing and ran. Every few
seconds | screamed, but | kept pushing. The dark trees were hiding secrets | needed to unravel. | threw up a ball
of light, and | saw a bee zipping towards the clearing. | ran the way it cuntil | stumbled upon a huge hive.
