The Alpha Queen And Her Chosen Mate – Chapter 58

Just keep running, just keep running, just keep running. We were so close to making it out. Thorin became perfectly reasonable once I got his earplugs in, thank goddess. Keres, on the other hand, well, she was on a kill mission. I did succeed in getting her earplugs in, but then she shifted and they fell out as I had expected. As it would seem, the Banshees didn’t seem to bother Keres, probably because she was mental to begin with. Thorin and I had been linking each other and decided the best course of action was to go back for his bag at our camp, which had a fancy cattle prod in it, and then run to the edge of the forest, subdue Keres, and drag her the rest of the way out.

The sun was quickly setting and I felt like I could almost hear Keres in her wolf form laughing at me. What she failed to realize was that Thorin had been missing for at least ten minutes now. She was so caught up in trying to kill me that she forgot to keep an eye on him. He tore away from us and shifted once he saw that we were in the area where there were witches. We weren’t too far from the edge of the forest, which meant we had to work fast before Keres got out into town and caused even more trouble.

we can leave this goddess’ forsaken forest. I had no interest in continuing on, it was too dangerous. We were lucky to make it out once. I didn’t want to test those odds again. I don’t think Thorin did either, it was obvious that he had been through his own personal hell because of the Banshees.
