(Jay's POV)
Why can't this girl just catch a break?...
One second Olivia's lying peacefully, resting and the next she just up-ed and vanished… leaving only residual magic behind.
Naturally, this immediately pulled Thalia into a frenzy…her hands started glowing as she's chanting.
My claws shoot out before I can stop them, digging into my palms.
The pain barely registers.
All I can focus on is how WRONG it is that the place where she was laying a few seconds ago is now empty…just like that.
"Do something. NOW." The words come out more growl than speech. My wolf is clawing at the surface, desperate to protect what's ours.
Thalia wasn't just standing there, hands hovering above where Olivia once rested…the chanting was still going on.
