CHAPTER 56 Same Scene

  Elena's POV

  A strong feeling of denial and unwillingness to accept my fate surged from within me, the adrenaline spurring me into action. This time, I dodged the dagger that was aimed at my heart with all my strength. Raine gnashed her teeth and swung again.

  The cold blade passed by my arm, and I used everything that I could to avoid it. The tip of the dagger grazed my skin and instantly I saw the blood leaking out and beginning to drip down my arm. The sight of it increased my alertness and pushed another surge of adrenaline through my system. I had been here before and I knew how important this was. I was fighting for my life, my future, and for Luke. If I died now and our mate bond was severed, he would lose his mind and everything that he had worked so hard for.
