Wolves in the Shadows

Lily Carter POV

A rock broke the nursery window and glass flew all over the place. As the shards fell around us, I threw myself over little Emma to protect her.

"Everyone under the tables!" My heart was pounding so hard that I screamed.

The dogs hid under some wooden tables while I looked at Emma's scared face for cuts. I rushed her to safety with the others when I couldn't find any.

Outside, people were getting more angry.

"The omega witch can't have our pups!"

"Send her back to the lowest dens where she belongs!"

I looked in through the broken window. At least twenty wolves stood in the open, faces twisted with anger. Some held rocks, others waved sticks. My stomach turned to ice.
