My feet left the ground. I was lifted effortlessly, suspended in the air.
Puff. Without my command, my body shifted back into human form.
For the first time, I truly realized just how powerful vampires could be.
"Hey, little werewolf," the man laughed loudly. "You'll be thanking me later, Viktor. Luring in strong werewolves like this worked perfectly. If you turn into a vampire, you'll be an exceptionally powerful one."
I ignored his words.
I struggled to breathe, forcing myself to stay conscious. My nails sharpened into claws as I slashed at him.
"Damn it!" he cursed as blood spilled from his hand.
For a split second, I thought I had an opening to escape. Instead, he pulled me closer.
Then—
Pain.
His fangs sank into my neck. It felt like my blood was being drained straight out of my body. My consciousness began to fade.
Suddenly, I was thrown—no, flung—onto the ground.
Footsteps echoed from the cave entrance. Enforcers poured in one after another.
