Chapter 41: The Aftermath

Oriana’s POV

The packhouse rumbled beneath my feet. Blood was thick in the air. Vampire. Wolf.

A fucking massacre.

Completely preventable. I could have stopped this if my own father hadn’t incapacitated me to take me by force. My veins burned with the aftermath of the blessed blood, but now instead of pain, I was fueled by resentment.

Each digit on my hands twitched with the desire for carnage.

No one would be able to stop me. Not as I tore them apart.

Sekhmet whispered in my ear. “Take your vengeance. Feed your bloodlust.”

“You need to get away from me,” I snarled, my fangs elongating into the reflection of my demon. Robin’s brindles fur bristled on his back, but he knew that he wouldn’t be able to stop me. He obeyed, pushing Edgar back from me as well. I didn’t want to hurt them, but I wouldn’t be able to stop if they got in my way.
