Mate! Lucas cackled, high and insane in his mind. Our mate!!
Daphne shrieked as the wolf leaped at her and tackled her to the ground. She stared up at the wolf looming over her, frozen in terror.  
She hissed at the pain in her neck as he removed its paw from her throat and stepped back just a bit.
