Wolf Endangered (Willow's Forbidden Pack #2) - Avery Song Page 0,250

to test that out.

I gritted my teeth and urged every bit of magic left in me to reach my fingertips. I watched as my hands shook with electric power until they were glowing pink and I felt the energy begging to be released.

"Willow! Listen to me! I have to reach you or else you're going to expand the bond!"

Loki was still being zapped like he was strapped to an electric fence, and though he projected himself as someone who was strong and dealt with so much from the marks on his body, I knew if I delayed any longer, he'd die.

Sorry, Vikki. I know you taught me somewhere not to bind my magic to strangers...but he kept me alive. It's best if I return the favor.

"Ugh! Don't call me Vik-"

I smiled and purposely didn't let him finish - my hands launching forward and grabbing the collar in one swift movement.

My scream left me as the electric charge bolted into my body. I kept holding on as I pushed my magic against the vivid force. The three mutant wolves howled, the sound only contributing to the stimulating overload happening all around me, but Bria pushed to the edge of the surface until it felt like she was in control as the words left me in a heightened scream.

"UNBONDA LA VA RE FREE BINDA!"

The sky boomed with thunder, the ground shook severely, and my body felt like it was ablaze. I could feel the surge of my magic surrounding the collar - fighting the intense force that fought against me.

I could feel the strain of it all, blood dripping from my nose and pooling from my mouth, but I'd come too far to lose. If I was on the verge of losing my life, I'd do it as a winner.

This coward of a queen wouldn't benefit from having someone like Loki.

My fingers wrapped around the charged leather, not caring about the spikes that sliced through my flesh. With every bit of strength, I pulled at the resistance until it finally snapped.

The release pushed into the air, and my weak eyes widened as I watched the destructive power release from the collar like multiple bolts of freed magic. Instead of being freed into the universe around us, it charged through Loki's body that vibrated like he was enduring a seizure and then bolted outward in the same direction of the explosive blast.

Heading straight to me.

There was no time to brace myself for the impact. My scream was a silent one as my vocal chords gave out and my body went numb. The energy that was foreign suddenly felt far too familiar, and I remembered something I'd forced myself to forget.

"You mistake!"

My screams couldn't get out of my throat anymore, as I fought to move - struggled to breathe. My body wasn't working, my mind was a mess, and tears streamed down my cheeks as I wished to go back to the torture I'd gotten used to.

The pain that was merely physical rather then the pulsing force vibrating through me.

"I have to try again, but I don't have time! Dammit. You're the child of Elphaba! This should work. The collar should stay! Why won't it fucking stay?!"

The woman's frustrated screams only led to me being kicked again and again, and there was that pulsing pain until I couldn't think anymore.

"Ma'am," a voice quietly interrupted. "The butler is going to be here soon. We'll have to continue this during the next session."

"Dammit!" she cursed and a hand grabbed my throat and slammed my head against the blood-covered pavement. "You won't tell Aurelia about this, right?"

I couldn't speak as my eyes met the woman's cynical ones.

"You won't tell Roberto or your stupid butler. No one will know about these treatments, understand?" she hissed. "Or I'll destroy your world. I'll kill your papa, murder your dumb butler bodyguard, and destroy everyone you love. I'll make sure your puppy dog of a boy never returns from his absence, and Aurelia?"

She paused to emphasize her words. "I'll make her despise you. I'll manipulate her mind so you'll never be friends. So you won't say a word, Willow."

Her grin made her eyes light up.

"Not a single...fucking...word."

When I crashed into the ground, I was left in a world of ringing. The high-pitched noise reminded me of a television station suddenly not working and alerting its viewers with an ongoing high-pitched sound.

I couldn't move and all I could see was the snow falling from the sky. My vision grew blurry as water
