to Silas. “And for your
information, you didn't Turn me, Silas. He did.” She jerked
her thumb at Tony. “I am a brown bear, not a polar bear.”
“You...
“Yeah. Don't believe
me?” Terri smiled slowly. “I'd show you my bear. But
then I'll have to kill you.”
Silas was snarling at her.
“You are mine, Terri. How dare you...”
“How dare I Turn into a
brown bear?” Terri jabbed a finger into Silas's chest. “I
didn't want to Turn into any bear, Silas. You bit me, tried to Turn
me, and failed. Tony had to complete my Turning to save my life. I
would have died if not for him!”
Terri was breathing hard, her
gray eyes turning feral. Her pain and rage was pulling her bear to
the surface. Her bear had scented its enemy and was baying for
blood.
She stepped back and cracked
her knuckles. “I will show you my bear, Silas.” Her
voice lowered to a growl. “My fangs will be the last thing you
see and feel.”
Abby ran out of the house,
shaking her head and calling out to Terri. Tony reached out and
grabbed Abby's elbow to stop her from going near Terri and Silas.
Abby's eyes rounded and she let out a horrified cry as Terri and
Silas started circling each other with murder in their eyes. Deadly
claws sprouted from their fingertips as they prepared to tear into
each other.
“Stop them,” Abby
pleaded. “He'll kill her!”
Tony shook his head and spoke
quietly, keeping his eyes on Terri all the time, “No. She
needs to do this, or her bear won't rest. Her bear is angry and
resentful. If she doesn't end this herself, the rage and resentment
will fester in her beast, a beast which has been forcibly Turned.
She will become bloodthirsty and brutal, and the risk of her turning
rogue will be very high.”
“But...”
“She is a shifter now.
Shifters never run from a fight. She has to establish her power, her
dominance. If word of her weakness gets round, she'll be targeted by
other predatory shifters. I won't let her come to any harm. I'm
watching her. Every step of the way,” Tony assured his Alpha's
mate.
Abby gave a shaky nod and
clung to him. Her hands were icy as she fretted, worried and feared
for her friend.
Tony watched Terri shift into
her bear form confidently. Silas growled in anger and frustration
and let his bear out. His polar bear was larger and bulkier than
Terri's brown bear, but Tony knew that Terri could hold her own
against Silas.
His girl had fight. She was
smart and fast, and she would use Silas's size against him. He had
shown her how to use her smaller, feminine size to advantage and she
had been an excellent student.
Terri circled the polar bear,
wiggling her rump a little to show off every blade of dark brown fur
on her body. She chuffed out a mocking laugh when Silas roared and
charged at her.
She danced nimbly out of the
way and managed to rake her claws down his side. A splash of red
appeared on Silas's white fur, and Terri rammed into his injured side
to try to topple him. Silas twisted round and bit Terri on the leg.
She roared in pain, and managed to wrench her leg out of his jaws.
Limping away, she licked her
wound and glanced at Tony. Tony gave her a quick, encouraging nod,
and flicked his eyes back to Silas. Terri crouched and rolled away
as Silas snapped his teeth inches from her neck.
She ducked and dodged,
escaping with minor injuries while waiting for the opportunity to
deliver the killing blow. Clever girl. Tony smiled grimly.
If she attacked him ceaselessly, she would just be wasting precious
energy. Silas was bigger and stronger than her. She would be
risking serious injury if she clashed head-on with him.
Watch and wait.
There would be an opening, a
chance. One chance to kill.
Silas huffed and panted,
blood coursing down his face. Terri had stabbed a claw right between
his eyes and gouged out a piece of his face. The girl was fast, and
sharp. She struck where it hurt most, scoring maximum damage with
minimal movement.
Silas reared up and
