Limitless Luna

Chapter 32

Catori's POV:

Being confined in the escape pod was weighing down on me as my instincts kicked in to help instead of stand by watching. Pressing my hands against the glass I could feel my wolf surface as the palms of my hand heating up the glass causing it to melt as my heartbeat kicked up a notch. "Catori!" Ixchel pulled me back from it as smoke seeped in before she could mend the holes.

"Catori, get a grip on yourself" She held my head in her hands coughing as she had me focus back on her. "Ixchel they need me.. they need help, look at Igor and Ilya they're barely holding on. Please just at least let me retrieve them?! They need to get back here or they won't make it."

I pleaded and begged as she looked around. "Fine, look.. we'll open the pod and get them back here but as soon as thats done you must be here so we can seal it up, we can't spare more time and endanger Evie or you. Just get back here quickly Catori." She emphasized as the door slid open.

Bolting straight out as fast as my legs could carry me I shifted into my midnight black wolf heading straight for the tigers as I skid to a halt snapping at the hell hounds long enough to push one of the tigers with my hind quarters as I growled and nudged him back further, the other quickly helped to drape the first one over his body as he carried him precariously back towards the pod with me guarding them every step of the way until they made it in.

Just as I thought I was home free a trio of hounds rushed forward pinning me down by each leg with only one to anchor me down into place. I could feel their teeth embedding into my fur pulling out mouth fulls of it as I growled and thrashed about. Without warning a demon made its way from behind lifting me up as it tossed me farther away from safety slamming me hard onto the barren ground. Yelping I rolled and tried to shake it off.

Lunging forward I sunk my teeth down severing it's head from his body before landing with a loud thud. Anger enveloped me as I realized there was a large ring of hell hounds attempting to close in on me. Just over them I could see Fher taking on damage as the Prince pummeled him not only physically but with his other worldly powers as well, he was in no position to lend me a hand as the stench of these beasts closed in.

Suddenly my body felt hotter than ever, the patches of flesh with missing fur felt like they were engulfed with fire as I look over my own shoulder I see that my fur is now lit at the tips with blue flames, my body is massing out and I'm feeling strength like never before. My vision cleared up pinpointing images from very far away as clear as day as I let go fully trusting my instincts as Ignis, my wolf takes over completely annihilating every one of the beasts before us.

My bites, scrapes and damage quickly healing at a much faster rate than ever before. I feel like a whole new being.. just then pain searing clear through my heart cripples me for a moment, I realize it is not my own but my mate's pain shooting through me as panic sets in. I howl loudly out into the crisp air for him "Easton" as I lock eyes with Ixchel willing her to stay with Evie, to patch up the tigers and to do whatever she has to do to keep my daughter safe.

I Must go to my mate, howling again confirming myself to be on my way to him before setting off at a blurring speed through the forrest out into the open tundra as the only part of the underground building thats visible above ground comes into focus. I can see before me the rest of our team and the staff fighting an all out war as blood paints the ground before them, many lost from the other side but casualties on ours as well.
