Chapter 42

• I forced my claw tipped fingers further into his muscular thigh, twisting them every which way to see him flinch in pain. Yet the scent of his fear didn’t grow thicker. Licking my lips clear of any remaining blood I descended upon him, crawling up the length of his leg to fiercely bite into the thigh I had already clawed into. I tore at his flesh roughly, bits of flesh making its way down my throat as I gulped down blood that spurted from the wound.
• Alpha Jackel, seeming to have finally freed himself from the shocked daze he was in kicked me in the stomach. I grunted, spitting up some of the blood that had been in my mouth. But that one kick wasn’t enough to peel me off of him. I was latched onto him like a leech. Two more kicks made me a little unstable and Alpha Jackel promptly tossed me off of him.
• I hit the ground a couple of feet away, groaning at having the wind knocked out of me. Shaking it off I stood, looking at how worse for wear Alpha Jackel looked. He stumbled to a standing position, dragging his right leg a bit. That was the one I had been gnawing on, and it didn’t seem like he had all that much time to use it between the broken ankle and the blood spurting thigh.
