CHAPTER 72

  Salem P.O.V

  I would be no match for them without my powers. Alpha Deucalion giving up his life for me would be all in vain. I cannot afford it to be so, I will never allow it, tears flooded my eyes as I remembered his lifeless body on the ground.

  I slowly stepped backward in fear as I saw their claws emerge from their finger ready to tear me apart.

  They were nowhere to run for they have encircled me.

  "Don't do this please," I begged.

  I cried out as Alaric slashed me across the face with his sharp claw.

  My hand shakes as my finger traced the deep wound. They had destroyed my face. It won't heal since I'm powerless and losing too much blood I could die.

  "Please don't do this," my voice shivered as I begged.
