Wolf Endangered (Willow's Forbidden Pack #2) - Avery Song Page 0,166

Viktor retorted.

"FIX!"

We all looked to Willow, who was still pointing at Dimitris's bleeding fist.

"Oh. Sorry, Blossoming Flower," I apologized, and without lifting a finger, my golden light of healing was around Dimitris's fist and healing it perfectly.

Dimitris was still glaring daggers at me, but I blinked my eyes innocently.

"I was possessed by the devil. You can't blame me."

Dimitris tilted his head just slightly, and I could see the bolts of purple in the hollows of his irises. I bet he was dying to strike me with a bolt or two.

"Wait. Where's Willow?"

We all blinked as we realized our pink-haired beauty was missing.

"Fuck," Onyx groaned. "She moves like a fucking vampire."

Viktor sighed. "I'll track her."

"Hmm. Not necessary," Neo admitted. "She's nearby. I can see her energy. She's...skipping around something."

"Is that something dangerous enough to kill her?" I asked.

"Nope. Feels like flowers."

"Flowers," I whispered. "Fuck. Track her! Those are blood roses!"

All of them looked at me, but I didn't have time to explain why I knew that.

"Just move!"

All of us were going to move but Neo suddenly stated, "Wait."

We literally froze in a jolt as he held his hand up to stop us. He tugged on his blindfold to pull it down to his neck, his eyes opening as the intensity of magic coursed through his eyes.

The spinning red circles were spinning so quickly, it almost made his eyes look like he carried red irises, but from his expression, he looked confused.

"She just set them on fire."

"What?" we all gasped.

"She's coming back," Neo announced, and not a moment later Willow was back with a single red rose that glowed with immense power.

We all eyed her carefully. Only Onyx was brave enough to approach her.

"Sugar, why did you just light those on fire and keep one?"

She blinked as if she weren't translating what he'd said. It took a few added seconds before she replied, "Blackmail."

Okay. That was fucking adorable.

Clearly, the rest of us felt it was far too amusing because we were snickering. Even Dimitris was losing his 'I'll fuck shit up' expression as his lips curled in amusement.

"This is the longest she's been in this state," Onyx noted. "I wonder if it's okay?"

Willow skipped over to Viktor, surprisingly, and offered the rose.

"Vikky! Rose."

"It's Viktor, Willow."

"Vikky!"

"Might as well give up trying to change that," Onyx suggested.

Viktor sighed and accepted the rose. "What am I doing with this?"

"Protect," Willow encouraged. "Queen. Vile. Life source. Fun!"

"Is she saying that rose has something to do with the Vile Queen?" Jayce suggested.

What the...is the Vatican working with the witches?

It wasn't something I could completely disregard, but on normal occasions, they despised one another.

"Bye."

We returned our gazes to Willow, but she was literally gone - again.

"Oh, for fuck's sake," Dimitris huffed.

"I'll get her," Neo concluded.

"Where did she go?" I asked.

"She's on the bench."

We all frowned and looked back to see she was literally lying on the bench as if she hadn't been awake and doing crazy shit for minutes.

I felt a little relieved that she was actually asleep. We all decided to migrate, walking over to the bench in silence before Neo lifted her up and opened her eye to see if she was actually asleep.

"Hmm. She's out."

Onyx scanned her with his eyes. "I'm not sure if I need to give her a dose or not. Her energy levels don't seem too low."

"All of this is weird," Viktor grumbled.

"Did you literally just come from the airport?" Jayce inquired.

"I was notified by Beta Malachite that there was weird activity in NYC tonight due to the event. I wasn't going to chill in Russia with the obvious assumption that weird activity had Willow as one of the targets."

"We should return to the safe house," Neo encouraged. "We're running out of time."

"Hold up," Dimitris huffed and his eyes were obviously on me. I sighed and lifted my left hand to try to run my hands through my hair.

"Seriously, I was-"

"What's that on the back of your hand?" he asked instead and I paused in the very movement to blink.

"We're never going to sleep at this point." My wolf looked exhausted.

"See...that depends on whether Neo and Onyx are going to kill me."

They were both staring at the mark. I was surprised they weren't trying to murder me.

Onyx didn't seem very pleased by it, but Neo looked curious.

"She branded you." He wasn't stating it like it was a question. He knew what happened.

How long was he hiding around?

"I'm not sure how she did it," I admitted. "I'm a bit confused as to how
