Chapter 466 - Revenge

Her bones cracked. She yelled as they rearranged themselves into her wolf—into a white wolf with red spots and a red paw. As soon as she turned she had this urge to howl, and she howled. Surprised, she heard an answering howl from a distance. She turned her attention to those who were chasing her. 

Almost on instinct she found herself growling at the two gray wolves in front of her who were looking, as if they would rip her apart. One of them was shorter than the other and she knew that this was Jason. Their pale yellow eyes looked into hers. 

The two of them prowled towards her, growling and raking the ground with their claws. Bianca stood her ground and growled at them menacingly, challenging them to attack her. 

Suddenly, Jason leapt in the air and attacked her. She didn't know, but she anticipated his movement. She ran towards him, bucked on her hind legs and then leapt at him with full force. Almost immediately she had pinned him under her. Jason clawed and scratched her belly. She opened her jaws wide and was about to pierce them in his neck, when the other neotide rammed into her. The impact was so high that she was thrown in the air and fell on the ground almost ten feet away. Bianca lost balance. She whimpered but gained her ground seconds later.

Jason got up and almost immediately along with Azura, charged at her. And she lunged at them despite blood flowing from her belly. She met them mid-air, ten feet above the ground. The two neotides clawed her and bit her all the way down to the ground, as she did the same. But by the time they were on the ground, she was beneath them, kicking and clawing to ward them off. She pawed Jason with all her power while dodging Azura's attempts to pierce her throat. Jason fell to her left about three feet away. She took the chance to claw Azura on his face. Her force was so strong that the two of them bled. 

Azura roared with pain and when he turned to hit her, she was already running away. They chased her deeper in the forest. Within a few minutes they were very near to her and Jason leapt at her. However, he was shocked when before he could touch her, he felt a massive force on his side and he tumbled on the ground with a bone-crushing impact. Howling and whimpering, when he got up, he noticed yet another wolf who was standing in front of Bianca in a full protective mode. 

Dawn. 

And she was growling at them. On her right, a shadow emerged of a massive black wolf. 

Darius. 

Bianca walked to stand on the left of her mother. The three looked dangerous.

They heard giant wings flapping in the air and an ominous screech. 

Almost at once Azura shape shifted. Jason padded right beside him. 

"I have been waiting for this moment for so long Dawn," he said with a sinister laugh and bared his fangs. "It would be fun killing you in front of your children." 

Dawn growled and raked her claws in the ground as if telling him, challenge accepted. 

"For eighteen, no, nineteen years I have waited to kill you. My efforts went sour when I trapped you in the sea on your honeymoon," Azura grated. "But now I will leave no chance to kill you Dawn. Because of you, because of your dragon, I am in this condition. I am neither a free werewolf, nor a free vampire. I have turned into a blood slave for Lazarus. Can you imagine what that is?" He looked at Jason. "And he has turned a blood slave for me!" His jaws clenched and knuckles became white as he fisted his palms into tight balls. "You thwarted all our plans. You destroyed everything I had. The time has come that I will destroy you, even if that costs my life because I have nothing to live for now, except… revenge!" 

Saying that Azura shifted and growled. 

Mentally, Dawn told her kids to back off. "He is mine," she said. 

"Mother?" Darius was worried. 

"No Darius, watch it from the sides. Take your sister with you." 

"This is dangerous, mother," Bianca urged. She was dying to fight them. And she was surprised that her mother had come. At the same time she was sad that she had to see this situation. 

"Back off Bianca! These two are mine and don't you dare interfere." 

Her dragon screeched in the air in approval. 

Darius and Bianca growled and slowly padded towards the side where Bianca found Brantley standing. She walked up to him and nuzzled her head in his hands. He stroked his mate as she stood beside him. She didn't want to shift back. Her instincts didn't allow her to shift. What if her mother needed her? However what happened next was pretty shocking. 

Dawn turned around and she headed deeper in the forests and Jason and Azura ran after her. 

She was running at full speed but knew that Azura was stronger than any of them. Along with Jason he had a fine chance of putting her down. It was Jason who was gaining distance and she knew that it would be a matter of seconds before he would leap at her and catch her. 

Somewhere on the sides, a branch snapped and then a tree fell to the ground with loud creaking noise. Listening to the noise, Dawn ran towards that side. She had to cover the distance as soon as possible. She was aware that Azura was giving Jason his chance to kill her, maul her before he took her down. Even though she could have asked her children to attack, it was her protective instinct that she didn't allow them. Moreover her anger, her irritation and the pain which clawed at her heart, was so massive that every cell in her body was crying for avenge. 

She reached the spot where the tree had fallen. 

Jason gained distance and when he was only ten feet away, he leapt in the air all over again. 

"Now!" Dawn shouted. 

As soon as he was off the ground, in the air with his claws jutted out, he let out a guttural growl. All of a sudden instead of landing on her, he found himself caught between huge jaws and being carried in the air. The guttural growl changed into a blood curdling shriek as he went higher up in the black sky. 

When Quetz came to know that Dawn had denied her children to help her and she was being chased, he knew her plan. It was him who had pulled the tree out of the ground to attract her attention in his direction. And when Jason had lunged at her, he swooped down and caught his prey with his jaws. By the time he ascended the night sky he had crushed his victim. Jason let out a blood-curdling scream before he died. Quetz spewed out of what remained of him—the blood and flesh, instantly. "Disgusting!" he remarked. 

On the ground, Azura was not shocked. He knew that it was coming. He was aware of her dragon, and that is why he gave Jason a lead and stayed behind. Dawn had always been an emotional fool.
