Chapter 46: She-Wolf

It happens in a flash. Ambrose is beside me and then he's shifted, lunging over the table toward his brother.

Sebastian meets him in his own wolf form and there's a clash of fur and snarling.

I yank the sword from under the table, shoving my chair back and out of the way. When I look back again, the whole hall has shifted. They're tearing at each other's throats, snapping and biting.

A moment of pure fear shoots through me.

I'm not equipped for this. I don't know who I was kidding.

I don't have time to consider options as Elysia stalks toward me, still in her human form.

"I've been waiting a long time for this, b*tch," she growls at me.

"Why? Because the man you love was in love with me?" I snap back.

I figured she was in love with one of the brothers, but she just confirmed which one.

"I should've known you were working with him. You were the noble that gave the kill order to Lucas and then imprisoned him. But he was able to escape, and you murdered him, didn't you?"
