Chapter 127
Chapter 127 Skylar “No!” I scream, adrenaline surging through my veins in response to the carnage before me. My hands itch with the need to do something, anything, ‘Don’t lose focus, Skylar. Lucas tells me through the mind-link. He is trying to sound calm, but even I can tell he is upset by the killings. And, because my mate is upset, I can’t calm down myself either. I’m shaking on top of Lucas’ back as I whisper. “But they are all…..gone….our pack members are dead…“ ‘I know, but we can grieve later, Lucas assures me as he quickly evades Arachne’s giant hand. She is trying to swat us down from the sky. She keeps clawing at us, and Lucas flaps his wings furiously to speed up his pace. “F*ck she is fast!’ I hold on to Lucas’ scales for dear life. Arachne keeps trying to smack him down, and Lucas whimpers when she manages to grip his tail. “Got you, little dragon!” With a triumphant hiss, Arachne reels Lucas closer, her fangs gleaming dangerously in the moonlight. I can feel the pain radiating off him as her grip tightens around his tail. “No” I cry out, my hands to lien a portal for us to escape, but I’m too tired. I’ve used up too much magic and close my eyes as I try to come up with an idea. Sadly, nothing comes to mind. Lucas keeps struggling while our pack members are desperately trying to save their Alpha by biting into Arachne’s feet. I doubt that she can feel it. She ignores the werewolves and opens her mouth as if wanting to devour Lucas and me with him. A hundred pointy teeth are below us, and panic bubbles up within me. If we don’t do something, we will die! With that in mind, I shout at Lucas. “Can’t you shape-shift into the same creature Arachne is?” ‘No, I have already tried to turn into a drider, but my magic wont f*king let me!” Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Well… that’s a bummer,” I say in a voice way too calm for the situation, considering we are close to death. Lucas is trying to break free from Arachne, but her hands circle around his body, her huge fingers dangerously close to my body. “You’re going to be such a snack,” she mumbles. “Eating you will make me stronger, too.” I meet her gigantic eye and yelp. “What about trying to become a larger dragon? Can’t you do that?!” ‘I…I don’t think I would be able to control myself if I grew any larger than this!” et eaten fo my mate. “We are about to f*ck’s sake!” wl vibrates from Luca*’s chest, the sound tinged with desperation and fear. But I don’t think it’s the fear of nim trembling. It’s the fear of losing control. say in a pleading voice. “Can’t you just try…for my sake?” Chapter 127 He pauses before a sigir leaves his lips. “Fine Filtry, he finally gets our through clenched teeth, struggling against Arache’s monstrous grip.

With a swift jerk of his body, Lucas manages to break free from her grasp. Her surprised screech echoes throughout the clearing as she stumbles backward, trying to regain her footing Lucas takes advantage of her momentary confusion and whirls around to face her head on. He is bigger now, his body almost dwarfing Arachne’s massive form. Out of nowhere, he jumps over Arachne’s helpless form and pushes her to the ground. His clave penetrate her chest, and he opens his mouth to let out a beam of black-and-white fire. It engulls
Arachne’s spider body entirely, and her shrill screams fill the air. “No! You can’t do this! No! Stop!” The pack members stop in their movements to stare at the spectacle unfolding before them their Alpha growing large enough to rival their enemy and burning her to a crisp. Their eyes are wide with disbelief and fear. Amid the silence, the only sounds come from Luc*s’s savage growl and Arachne’s shrieking pleas for mercy. In the throes of his transformation, Lucas is unrecognizable. Half of his body is black with a leather clad wing that appears downright demonic, while the other side is white and soft with an angelic, feathery wing. His intentions, however, are far from angelic. Another roars, tears from his mouth, revealing nothing of the gentle soul I remember. Then, with his teeth bared in a snarl, Lucas leans down toward Arachne’s writhing form, her spider legs kicking wildly in an attempt to fight him off. But it’s futile. He’s too big, too strong- “No!” Arachne cries in a weak voice. “Don’t do it!” But it’s too late. Lucas opens his jaws wide, revealing ranks of sharp, gleaming teeth, each one bigger than my entire body. For a moment – a terrible moment-time seems to slow as I watch him stretch his mouth wider and wider. Then, he begins to eat the spider lady. Arachne disappears down his maw in pieces, her cries ending once her head is ripped from her body. The sight makes my stomach convulse with revulsion. The pack members gasp in shock, stepping back involuntarily as they witness their Alpha commit such an unthinkable act. A disturbing silence blankets us all as we watch Lucas – now hulking and monstrous stand victorious over the remains of Arachne, her death a chilling warning to anyone who dared threaten his pack. I stare down from my place on his back, wondering if he even remembers that I’m sitting up there.
“Lucas?” I try to call out, but there is no response. He keeps eating from the dead spider, and I shudder. “Could you stop? I don’t think eating her is a good idea.” 49% Chapter 127 45 Ignoring my protests, Lucas tears into Arachne’s carca*s with a fervor I’ve never witnessed before. His ferocious jaws crunch through spider bone and carapace, sending bits of exoskeleton flying into the air. The remaining members of the pack watch in stunned silence, their breaths held tight in their chests as they witness this display of power and dominance. Suddenly, Lucas jerks his head back and sends me tumbling off his back. My body lands softly on a grassy patch, cushioning the blow, but my heart hammers in my chest from something akin to fear. Is this the same man I played with on the beach? He looks so scary now. Unrecognizeable. Lucas turns his mammoth head towards me, his eyes gleaming with an intensity that sets my nerves aflame. He sniffs at the air, curling his lips back to reveal blood-stained teeth. I can feel my small body trembling as those formidable nostrils flare before my face, drinking in my scent. …is he going to cat me? “Lucas…” I whisper in a frightened tone. “It’s me….Skylar…you recognize your own mate, right?” 田
