Second Chance-In the mist Book 1 novel Chapter 58

"Jane was only 16 when a wolf the size of the ones that attacked you took her life. She and Dominic were in love, but my husband, Zack Barnett, never agreed. But I admired their devotion, the love they shared apart from our eyes. It was the only way they could express themselves. Neither Dominic nor Jane were werewolves, they were humans. The day Jane died, Zack ordered me killed, too, only I don't know by what power I escaped. He sent his most trusted man to take my life. He bit me, but I didn't die. I turned into a werewolf. Zack doesn't know I'm alive. Or sort of. And the one who attacked Dominic and Jane and then had me eliminated was none other than Tom" Another slap, this time it was stronger.

"Tom? My fiancé Tom?"

"I don't know any other! Your fiancé was also a werewolf who I still haven't figured out why he killed Jane." 

"And how did Dominic become... a wolf?" 

"Not a wolf, a werewolf. He's totally different. Anyway, his father William arrived too late on the mountain trail where they had been attacked. Dominic's mother never wanted her son to be a creature of the night, so she never agreed to his transformation. But his injuries were too dangerous and put his life in jeopardy. His only salvation was immortality, so she begged William to disregard her plea and turn him. Unfortunately for my Jane, it was too late." 

I knew Eve as a strong woman. I didn't know she'd been through so much. Regardless of the fact that she was a werewolf, she was a grieving mother after the death of her daughter. Tears were streaming down her face, so my soul softened and fear disappeared. I gently moved closer and clasped her hands, kneeling before her.

"I'm sorry, Eve. You've suffered a lot and..." but I didn't get to say all I had to say as a similar lightning bolt tore through my body again, only this time the pain was greater and it knocked me to the ground.

"Becca, are you okay?" Eve winced worriedly, gently stroking my hair and helping me up. That's when I realized that maybe what I was feeling wasn't random. Something was going on with Dominic. It seemed like I was going through every pain he was feeling.

"I'm fine, I just felt Dominic again" The next second and without help I stood up. "What should I do?" A wide smile spread across her time-wrinkled face. 

"Stand back and don't panic, please. We'll get there faster this way," and as soon as she finished saying that, a howl escaped her chest. Bones cracked, sharp claws appeared on her hands and fangs took the place of teeth. "Get on me and hold on!" How could I have heard her? "It's telepathy, my darling. You as the Luna can hear us and also the Alpha meant for you. Now hop in and let's go. Dominic needs you." 

"Rebecca, run!" Dominic shouted again, coming towards me at the same time as the huge werewolf that was becoming menacing and dangerous. If he saw I wasn't flinching at all and fear had taken me over, he revealed himself to me. "No one hurts my Luna as long as I'm around!" 

And he turned as he ran. His hands and feet became powerful paws, his roar that came as if from hell revealed his sharp fangs and the hate with which he glared was even more frightening and menacing. 

He leapt straight for Zack's throat, and Eve joined him in the battle. Together, they charged in force and knocked him to the ground. Roars of horror echoed throughout the forest and the fight between them turned violent. Neither of them allowed Zack to get to me, although sometimes he escaped their grasp, so I felt threatened and vulnerable. 

I didn't even know how long they fought, but together Eve and Dominic put Zack on the run. After things calmed down, they both became human again. Their clothes were still on, torn, and they were full of bruises and scratches that healed as I was looking at them.
