“No, I am fine ” I tell him, when Kat suddenly bites me trying to get my arm off her chest. I growl at her.
“Let me go, you big furry brute” She says. I pull my arm away looking at it, her blunt teeth barely breaking the skin.
I growl at her enjoying the way she cringes when I press my canines against her throat. I always found it amusing that she wasn’t scared of me until the teeth came out.
She freezes and I see Mateo’s eyes dart to me nervously and I could feel him debating with himself whether or not to pull over and get me away from her.
I run my canines over her shoulder and her breathing hitches, her heart rate increases thumping loudly against my hand that is holding her against me.
“Maddox?” Mateo says, slowing the car down and I could see he was about to pull over, probably the only thing I liked about Mateo before I marked him was as much as he feared me, he was first to react and jump in against me to protect Ezra from the damage I sometimes caused. No matter how many times I had injured him he always stayed even when Ezra told him to run. I knew he would give his life for our mate, even if it meant me killing him, though now just the thought of hurting him makes me queasy.
“I’m fine, keep driving, I find her temper more amusing than annoying” I tell him, feeling the car increase in speed.
“Not so smart mouthed now kitty” I tell her and I feel her temper rise, feel her anger bubbling at my words. Mateo pulls into the driveway and Kat tries to scramble off me.
“Stop” I tell her when I feel her elbow me in the ribs. Yet she still struggles, making me wonder how much worse her attitude was going to get. Andrei said it was from her needing to shift. I found it amusing but I wanted my kitty back. This side of her was making Ezra uncomfortable with himself. Ezra was the calm while I was the storm, yet he gave me control which in some ways scared me.
Fear wasn’t something I felt often but each time I have felt it was something to do with Kat.
Mateo opens the door and I climb out of the car, dragging a struggling Kat with me. She drops her weight and I only just manage to grip her arms before she slides onto her butt and escapes. I pick her up, her entire body thrashing as she tries to escape my grip when I chuck her over my shoulder. I grip the back of her thighs to stop her from kicking me. Mateo was watching her and I could feel his concern for her but I could feel he was also becoming annoyed with her erratic behaviour. At least now we know it isn’t her fault and that she wasn’t being a brat for no reason.
“Put me down” She screeches and I have never seen her so out of control before. She was almost manic as she tried to escape, hitting and scratching at my back.
“Don’t hurt her” Ezra tells me coming forward at the sound of her manic voice.
“I’m trying not to but she is bloody hurting me with her nails tearing apart your back” I tell him.
“What’s wrong with her” Mateo says opening the door to the house, her breathing was increasing and I was now struggling to hold onto her as she continued to thrash wildly. I had no idea what was wrong with her but the feeling oozing off her felt out of control, like she was losing her mind with her anger.
“I don’t know” I tell him climbing the stairs, Kat suddenly starts thrashing again nearly tumbling off my shoulder and I barely catch her before she falls on the stairs. Ezra watches worriedly when she suddenly starts clawing at her face and ripping out her hair. Mateo quickly grips her wrists and pulls them away from her face and hair.
“We need to get her upstairs” I tell him suddenly becoming increasingly worried, this wasn’t kat. She was acting insane. Just as we reach the second level she turns in my arms managing to force Mateo to let her go, her nails scraping down my face before she knees me in the side of the head making me drop her. Mateo grabs her around the waist as she jumps up. Kat throws her head back, headbutting him when I notice her gold eyes had turned black, even the scleras were black. She looked demonic and possessed, her strength was astonishing as she tosses him off like he weighs nothing.
“Maddox, do something, something is wrong with her” Ezra tells me suddenly trying to take control back. Her breathing was so heavy she was almost panting when I saw her eyes dart to the door on the floor below, she suddenly took off and I realised she was going to jump off the balcony overlooking the floor below. Ezra shoves forward because I was too shocked at her behaviour to react. Mateo screams for her trying to get to his feet when I feel Ezra take control, shoving me back with blinding speed.
Ezra POV
I had never seen her like this before, never in my life did I think I would ever see her like this as I watched her.
Maddox stares at her stunned at her fury when she runs toward the balcony.
“Kat no” Mateo shrieks jumping to his feet and I shove forward gripping the back of her shirt and yanking her back.
She falls on top of me and I wrap my arms around her holding her still before rolling so I was sitting on her back.
Her hands clawing at any part of me she could reach as Mateo came over trying to hold her still as she flailed around.
My heart was racing at the sight of her, her anger igniting mine and I couldn’t understand how her mindset completely shifted, she had been off for days and I thought it was because Kora wasn’t talking to her, yet I don’t think she even realised how much attitude she had been giving us, not necessarily what she was saying but the way she talking to us. She had been snapping and snarling at us for days and it had been driving Mateo and I insane but today, today it was like a switch flicked in her head and now this is what is left.
She rolls beneath me, her nails digging into my leg as she tries to shove me off. Mateo holding her arms down. “Shh kat calm down babe ” Mateo tells her soothingly before looking at me. He looked terrified not of her but for her.
She turned her head biting into my leg when she wasn’t getting anywhere by hitting us now that Mateo had her arms pinned to the floor.
“Ezra what do we do?” Mateo says but I was clueless, I had never dealt with her like this, this was something else.
“Remark her” Maddox tells me, my heart was pounding in my chest, my blood boiling in my veins making me wonder if Mateo was getting the same second hand anger from her.
“Mark her again Ezra” Maddox snaps at me when she starts screaming and thrashing harder, Mateo’s wrists were bleeding from where she had bit and scratched him, trying to get her hands free.
Suddenly Mateo pulls her head to the side before looking at me wanting me to mark her again to knock her out. I didn’t want to hurt her, I felt guilty enough for slamming her on the table and yelling at her.
“Do it Ezra hurry” Mateo yells at me. I swallow pushing the guilt aside before letting my canines elongate. I rip her up by her shoulders, sinking my teeth into her neck. She screams and starts thrashing before her thrashing slows, her hits becoming weaker before she turns limp. Her breathing slows and I let her go gently, putting her back down, to find her face slack as she passed out.
Yet I could feel her anger still, feel the manic cold darkness wash over me the moment I sank my teeth into her, like it left her and rushed into me. I rolled off her moving away from her and I could feel Maddox stirring and growling in my head. My entire body trembling as I fought against him wanting to shift and tear apart something.
Mateo was breathing heavily as he stared at me and I knew he could feel the shift in us.
“You right?” He asks me and I stare at Kat passed out on the floor. Maddox felt wild inside me and I knew Mateo could feel it. I needed to let him out before he took over, if I didn’t he may not give me control back and I don’t want him to take out what the hell rushed over kat that was now in us on them.
“Go, leave I will take care of Kat, Go Ezra” Mateo tells me. Fur was sprouting on my arms and I was too scared to move, worried the moment I did he was going to shove forward.
“Now! I can feel him, Ezra you need to go” Mateo says, scooping up kat.
I force myself to my feet, clutching the bannister, m y claws sinking into the wood and leaving marks. “Ring Andrei, find out what the f*ck with is wrong with her” I spit out through gritted teeth, I could feel my fingers start snapping and rush down the stairs. I barely make it outside before my clothes are in tatters, Maddox forcing the shift and running toward the forest.
Katya POV
My eyes fluttered open to see the ceiling, I sat up confused. The last thing I remembered was getting in the car and Maddox pulling me on his lap. I rub m y eyes wondering if I was dreaming, yet I don’t remember falling asleep and how did I get in our bed? Rolling over, I come face to face with Ezra’s wolf. He was curled up beside me, growling in his sleep. I go to wake him when I hear footsteps making me look at the door. Mateo steps in, his voice flitting through my head.
“Don’ t wake him, he only got home 3 hours ago” Mateo tells me, making me look at Maddox beside me, he growls in his sleep and I go to climb off the bed when he moves, his big furry head landing on m y chest.
“What time is it?” I mindlink back.
“5:30 A.M.” I sigh, putting my head back on the pillow. Maddox moved and placed his paw on top of my head. I push it off so it lands on the pillow above my head before rolling on my side to face him. His head moved as I rolled, his nose pressing against my neck and I brush his fur. I see Mateo sit on the other side of him.
“Why is he in this form, where is Ezra?” I whisper to Mateo.
“Maddox didn’t give him control back and then he fell asleep” Mateo tells me.
“Wait, why did he take control?” I ask Mateo and his eyes snap to mine.
“You don’t remember?” He asks and I shake my head wondering what there was to remember.
Mateo sighs before muttering. “Of course you don’t,” Mateo rubbed his eyes. Looking at him, he doesn’t look like he had much sleep. He leans back against the headboard closing his eyes before speaking again.
“How do you feel?” He whispers and I furrow my brows in confusion.
“Fine, just wondering how I got in bed” I tell him, running my fingers through Maddox fur. He purrs in his sleep before I hear Mateo snoring softly, making my eyes dart to him. Looking at the clock, I still had 2 hours before Andrei was meant to get here. I wiggle out from under Maddox’s Paw that was on my hip and his other above my head. I gently place his huge furry paw on the bed pushing my pillow closer for him. He sniffs it in his sleep before he exhales loudly, his giant furry body rising and falling heavily with each breath.
I head to walk-in and grab some clothes before sneaking to the bathroom in the hallway and quickly chucking them on, leaving them both to sleep in the bedroom. Once dressed, I walk downstairs to the kitchen and flick the kettle on and make myself a coffee, being careful not to bang the teaspoon on the cup and wake them. I could feel they were both still asleep. I felt wide awake and knew going back to sleep was not going to happen, I feel like I have been asleep for days. Walking around the packhouse I do some housework filling the time. When it was getting close to the time he was meant to arrive I slipped some socks on and my joggers.
Hearing a car pull up, I quickly duck out the front door to see Andrei’s car pull into the driveway, parking next to Ezra’s and Mateo’s. I noticed he didn’t bring his usual guards like yesterday when he climbed out of the car. I half expected him to bring at least one person with him since he was going onto another territory, but he brought no one. He shuts the car door and I cringe at the noise before he looks over the rooftop of his car at me. I raise a finger to my lips telling him to be quiet. He nods before walking around his car towards me.
