Lycer's POV

I look around from the roof of the pack house. I can't tell who is winning this battle. They have more casualties than we do but they have so many people. No, they're not people. They're not even werewolves anymore. They're just experiments. In the end, no one is truly going to win I think.

A bright blue light starts to come from one side of the yard and I quickly turn around to see what it is. Kaleshia is on the ground, a blue barrier seeming to surround her as she holds something in her arms. No, someone. I squint my eyes an anger surges through me when I see that it's Zay's non-moving form.

I quickly go back to doing what I was doing before, looking for Malum. I spot Xavier who I knew was doing the same thing. He shakes his head, telling me he hasn't seen him either. I described what he looks like so Xavier can at least guess, not to mention he'd be one of the only ones to look normal who isn't from his pack. There might be a few experiments who look kind of normal but not completely.

I jump down onto Celestial's and Xavier's balcony and walk into the room. I couldn't help but worry about her. I was her protector. The guard nods in greeting and points towards the bed. I smile when I see Celestial laying down. I sit down next to her and she smiles up at me. "Hey Lycer."

"You didn't get hurt, did you?" I look her up and down to see if there are any injuries. She shakes her head and after confirming it for myself I nod.

"Did you see where Zay ran off to?" My breath hitches and I nod.

"She went to help Kaleshia," I say honestly but preparing to lie if it comes to it. "That's why I came here. I wanted to make sure you were okay." I hold out my hand to hold hers and squeeze it tightly.

"I'm okay so get back out there and find Malum. End this please. I've seen my pack member die. My pack members Lycer. I want this to end before I loose anymore of them." I nod and lean down to kiss the top of her head. "Stay safe please." I nod.

"You too." She smiles as her eyes slip close. "Make sure she doesn't exhaust herself again please," I tell the guards but I could tell they heard the annoyance in my voice. I don't want her getting hurt in anyway and if she wold have kept going she could have been hurt. Someone should have stopped her sooner.

I jump up to where I can grasp the roof and pull myself over. I look over the pack, trying to find the man who is ruining this pack's life.

I sigh when I start to notice the experiments thinning out. It's not by a lot but it's something. I guess the experiments aren't always as strong as Malum would like them to be. I jump off of the roof and crouch, landing safely on my feet. I've done this multiple times so it's gotten easier then it originally was. I almost broke my leg when I first tried.

"Xavier!" I look around, seeing if there was anyone I could help while Xavier made his way over here. I quickly spot someone who is injured. Their leg was bent in the wrong direction and blood was staining the pants they are wearing around the injury. I run over to her, noticing she's unconscious. I put one arm under her legs and the other under her shoulders, trying not to hurt her further. I quickly run inside the pack house and lay her next to the other injured people and wolves. Everyone in wolf form in conscious. If they were to fall unconscious they would most likely shift back.

"We need Zay!" I look up to the person who said that. He and a few other teens are rushing to help the injured. They must be students. "She could easily get this done." I sigh, knowing Zay won't be returning.

"You will all have to make do," I announce. They don't stop what they're doing but I can tell they are listening to me. I hesitate, wondering if I should tell them. In the end, I decide that they should know. We aren't relying on hope right now. We're relying on what can actually happen and Zay coming back. . . That's just not going to happen. "Zay won't be returning." They all stop. One girl looks at me with wide eyes. "I'm sorry," I say to everyone while I'm looking at the girl.
