Mia’s Pov
The battlefield around us was in chaos—Christian’s desperate shouts were muffled by the swirling magic that separated us, the sounds of the werewolf army fighting against Balthazar’s creatures fading into the background. All I could focus on was Kalazar, his face twisted in rage and disbelief as he fought to overpower me.
But I wasn’t the same person anymore. Something inside me had snapped. My wolf’s power coursed through my veins, feeding into the well of magic that I had never fully unlocked before. I was stronger. Fiercer. Kalazar launched another attack, a deadly bolt of dark energy aimed directly at me. I raised my hands instinctively, summoning a shield that deflected his magic, sending it hurtling back toward him. He growled in frustration, his eyes narrowing as he realized I wasn’t going down easily.
