If there was one thing Priscilla knew very well it was that she would not let Liam bite the back of her neck and mark her, she would not allow it, even if she had to tear her body apart to stop him. Her body was extremely tense which caused harsh throbbing in her bruised ribs. If only those chains would allow him to defend himself he would. He would use his power no matter what.
Then a vague memory came to his mind. His mother’s words telling him that when plan B fails, you still have until Z to try. So, he couldn’t just say that he couldn’t use his powers because of it.
The shackles were heavy but it was not to be the metal that repressed his actions. It wasn’t a material capable of that, only of restraint, so it could only be one thing. He glanced at them quickly as Liam finished undressing and noticed what he expected. They were full of blood splattered both inside and out, not only from his mother’s blood but one that had penetrated the inside of the metal.
-So that’s it,- he said with a slight twitch of his lips.
As his mother used to say, if there is no B, time to use the C. So quickly with his claws that hurt to even pull them out he tore the skin above the ankle shackles and with his fangs he broke her wrists so deeply that blood began to gush out unchecked.
-Do you want to kill yourself so fast?- Liam didn’t care about what he thought were vain attempts to avoid the inevitable.
Too bad Priscilla didn’t feel the same way. She had already saved Leila and Alim, now she just had to wait for her potent blood to bathe the shackles and dull the power of the one that was dry on them. If his plan worked, these would just be ordinary chains and he would take it upon himself to freeze it, get Liam out of Kei’s mind and destroy him completely. He’d already screwed up too much for him to keep doing it.
Liam guffawed already completely naked.
-Well, this isn’t the best body, but at least it will serve my purpose. Once I bite you you’ll be mine and when I knot you even Layan won’t be able to help you because you won’t belong to him anymore- the wolf lowered his hand and rubbed the growing erection.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Priscilla had seen Kei naked before since they were going to regularly run together for training, she would find this image disturbing, especially when she knew that this wolf, at least the real one had a relationship that fell into the sexual with Victore. Another reason she could not allow Liam to bond with her, he would destroy the Commander, she had already noticed the glow when he spoke referring to the beta. He could be a bit sadistic and twisted, but deep down he loved Kei madly.
That was why she had to do everything in her power, even if the blood was already running like a puddle underneath her and the shackles completely red from it.
Would her theory be working?
Not quite yet. Almost, she could feel a little of her powers vibrating inside her. That was a light at the end of the tunnel. A few minutes was all she would need. She had to find some way to buy time. But she faltered.
She hadn’t counted on how weak her body had been from before, she must have lost a lot of blood during the fall and more this… it wasn’t easy to replenish, she had only been able to heal until she was chained.
Damn.
Liam for his part just smiled as if he seemed to have figured out her plan, though he didn’t say anything. He advanced towards her releasing his erection and panting excitedly, the lustful look not at all like Kei’s serious but pleasant ones.
-Let’s get started beautiful, I think there will be visitors soon and at least I want to achieve my goal before everything goes wrong-?
Visitors?
Priscilla’s chest pounded. Alone, it could be who she imagined. Among them her wolf. The mark on her neck throbbed. Yes, it was him, but the sensation was so light that she imagined they were far away.
But before she could think about it any further, Kei was already holding out his hand to her. Priscilla reacted and ran backwards but Liam was faster and grabbed her by the crown of her head and pulled her head to the ground. The blow caused both Priscilla’s mouth and nose to suffer a severe impact splattering blood on the floor.
-Oh, don’t make me angry, I don’t want to hit the body I want to own anymore. It’s already a problem with all this blood- he grabbed one of her arms and twisted it backwards while inspecting the wound- It was deep but you didn’t cut the tendons or the main veins- his voice came out extra cautious- What was your intention? It wasn’t to die.
Even though everything around her was becoming confusing, the pain suffocating, her chest barely able to hold its breath given her fractured ribs, Priscilla smiled.
-I love your face when you make that expression,- she looked at him out of the corner of her eye, -The one where you’ll have to suffer the price of self-doubt.
Liam’s face became so cold that his expression was scary, but not to Priscilla, Layan’s could terrify more and her mother’s, like there was no comparison, after the omega’s anything was just a clown, thanks to that she had been able to easily overcome the initial indifference of her partner.
The hand on her hair squeezed tighter until almost wanting to pull it out and lifted it making the she-wolf’s neck twist backwards.
-I still see you haven’t learned your place,- she whispered in his ear and bit his lobe shattering it.
-I…- she gasped in pain but a smile appeared later on her face -I don’t need anyone to teach me my place, I am where I please–.
And finishing her words an ice cube came out of the ground cutting Liam’s cheek.
…
…
…
The first two seconds Liam was shocked and the third one he had to move back as fast as he could dodging the different ones until they ended in sharp points with intentions to hurt.
-He laughed uncomfortably as he knelt in the corner watching Priscilla sit up with difficulty, her eyes when she turned to him were a silver so powerful that they were more intense than her father’s, the pupil was barely noticeable, -Are you planning to murder this body?
-There are many areas that one can hurt without killing someone,- she said bowing her head and in a serious way, -I have no intention of you staying long inside that body. Kei is a strong wolf, no matter how much I hurt him he will recover soon. On the other hand… you don’t…
And another one even appeared right behind Kei and grazed the side of his abdomen breaking the skin. The wolf growled and ran to the side.
-Damn bitch- he growled at her and lunged at her transforming her body, but he couldn’t reach her.
Several even jumped out in front of her in the direction of the wolf. Liam stepped back showing his fangs.
-And to think you still have strength left,- he snorted to cover his indignation.
And just like him Priscilla was the same way. She kept a faint victorious smile on her lips to hide the fact that she could barely define what was in front of her. Since she had been able to release her powers, at least most of it by forcing all the energy she had left in her body to control it, while attacking Liam she had bought time and had closed the external wounds on his limbs and stopped the bleeding from his nose and lip. That didn’t take away from the fact that the blood was underneath her, not inside her body.
As a result, she knew she had to hurry, she was about to collapse, at least she had to hold on until her partner arrived. She watched as Liam looked for ways to attack her from different angles and even though she had wounded him he was still a very strong wolf, too much for her liking.
Until she saw him turn his attention to the two bodies on the ground. She opened her eyes and focused her attention on forming a dome of ice to protect them when she saw Liam run towards it. But she did not calculate how weak he was.
By doing that she was left vulnerable as she couldn’t do both at the same time, closing her wounds had already been utter madness and Liam realized this.
And before Priscilla could summon again one of the hasta or a barrier to protect herself Liam’s paws brought her down from behind and the big mouth full of fangs against the back of her neck.
The loud scream of pain that invaded the cave and pierced the walls reached the ears of Hades, Victore and Liam and they recognized it instantly. Something had happened to Priscilla.
Yes, Priscilla had been bitten.
