Roles Reversed

Chapter 8

Thank you everyone for over a hundred views, so to show my gratitude here's an updated before the new year❤️

Lucians POV
My wolf was prancing around in my head to finally be able to experience a moment like that with my mate. But this happy moment didn't last long.

My mates eyes suddenly glaze over because of a mind link.

"Intruders." My mate whispers.

One moment she's tied under me and the next moment she's gone.

I blink in surprise. What's with her and this disappearing act I think.

I'm suddenly hit with a burning rage in my chest that has me gasping for air.

Immediately recognize it as my mate.

I look out the window and see hundreds of werewolves surrounding the castle. Immediately gather myself and rush out the door.

I stumble around through the castle not knowing exactly where to go.

When I finally reach the front door and step outside. I gasp in horror.

Dark clouds cover the afternoon sky. And there are hundreds of dead bodies brutally mutilated.

I hear people screaming in pain, and yelling surrender.

Bodies continue to drop and my eyes can't follow the movements of the person responsible.

The person finally slow downs and I'm expecting to see one of the queens guards doing this damage.

But no I see not other than my mate. Completely drenched in blood, eyes black claws out.

I stare in shock. My brain can't comprehend this. This doesn't match anything I've seen from her.

Sure she's shown signs of aggression and tried to kill me but those times a could never really take her seriously.

Everything clicks.

How can I be so stupid. I'm her mate. She's physically incapable of hurting me. It's in her nature to care for me and lean on me for support. I kind of just ended up assuming she was passive aggressive with everyone and didn't actually do anything. I mentally facepalm myself.

I refocus on the scene around me and see mate continuing her brutal assault on people.

She truly is a monster I think.

She continues to kill even after they surrender.

I see her rush towards a younger girl, who was probably forced to participate in the attack on the castle.

My feet finally move, and I use my full speed to try to get to the girl before Ariella does.

Some how I make it in time and stand in front of the girl.

Just as my mates hand goes up to make a swiping motion meant to cut a head off she stops abruptly when she sees me.

"ARIELLA STOP." I scream at her my voice full or anger and remorse of the lives lost.

The remaining people still alive look at me crazy like I have a death wish.

I look into her eyes and she looks completely lost.

"Move out of my way." She says through gritted teeth, breathing heavily.

"No." I say confidently

By this time the people around me are giving me silent prayers to Rest In Peace.

She tilts her head. And repeats my words like a question.

"You are not going to hurt anymore of these people."
