Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (read books for money TXT) 📕

night than it actually was. It was like the whole universe was conspiring to snatch away each and every possible chance from both of me and Kaith tonight, by not allowing us to get ourselves out of the danger which we found ourselves in, right now.

Yes, as soon as the night fell, all those glowing red eyes from behind those huge trees had started to come to our vision one by one, which we failed to realise before when there was light.

But, we were no longer oblivious about all those unwanted presences tonight, right here right at this moment.

And their glowing red eyes were enough for me to know who they were.

Rogues.

And they were many.

But the main question was what they were doing here when they were not supposed to enter the territory of any pack at all. I remembered that once I was trying to find one of their kind ever so eagerly and that too at a very young age, which caused me to lose everything from my life at once. My one single attempt to take down a rouge on my own, only to prove that I was worthy enough to become the alpha of my pack apart from the fact that I am a girl, snatched away my mom and dad from me ever so cruelly in just one treacherous night, mysteriously. And I could not even do anything back then.

But things have changed now.

I am no more the same Summer what I was a few years ago.

And this time, I will never let anything happen to any of those whom I love and adore. Cause this time I do not need to prove myself to anyone but I know that I need to fight for those who is my own. And nothing in the world could stop me from doing so ever.

In no time all the glowing red eyes kept coming closer to where I and Kaith were standing.

Although I had expected them to come to take me down, since I decided to get back to all those who took part to turn my life into a burning hell. But what I could not assume at all, that they would be fast enough to act even before me.

Still, not a problem at all. Cause now or later, I had to face such kind of situation. So, it is better to deal with the rogues now than later, as I was always prepared to cut their throats into pieces with my bare hands.

I could not realise when Kaith had shifted into his wolf form already, as I just kept my eyes fixed on those glowing red eyes all this while with no intention to turn my gaze away even for the slightest second, leaving a chance for them to attack. No, that was never going to happen.

But even then, if I think rationally, only two of us were not enough against all those rogues who were coming to get us in quite a good number, but I had no other choices except fighting till my last breath.

The big grey wolf of Kaith came forward in no time only to stand before me as the very shield, seeing that the rogues had no intention to stop as they all kept enclosing the distance between us, ever so slowly and menacingly.

They were taking their time which was quite frustrating for me. It appeared as if they wanted to let us know how great a threat they all were for the two of us right at this moment. But I cared the least.

The horror of the night could not even make me shiver as I had left no space in my heart to have mercy, cause I had already foreseen how I was not going to spare a single life tonight.

It did not take long for the rogue-wolves to increase their pace, seeing me not at all scared by their malicious presence.

I took out both of the swords without wasting any further moment, as I did bring those blades along with me today, coincidentally, after the combat with Kaith earlier in the morning and I am now thankful for that.

I swayed my blades with both of my hands, cutting the thin air around me only to get myself into the defensive position. The metals of my blades made a vicious threatening noise which resonated throughout the forest and did not fail at all to fall on their ears as well, declaring that I was so ready to either kill or die tonight.

Kaith's horrifying growl made me even more aware of the fact that they were now running towards us with such a great speed only to take a huge leap, attempting to dig their claws deep inside our flesh which would definitely force us to bleed ever so mercilessly.

But, that was never going to happen.

In no time, one of the rogues who had already come the closest, took the very leap just as I had expected. My swords did not bother to wait any longer as my hands moved on their own and swayed with such a tremendous motion within a flash of a second, and the next moment the head and the body of the rogue-wolf fell down on the ground one by one at two different spots.

Just when the rest of the rogues saw such a doom of one of their fellow members, all of them tried to stop themselves from coming near, but they became a bit late. The inevitable was not going to turn its way now. Cause, now Kaith had started his own wrath in a whole new way, from which it was quite impossible for the rogues to get out unharmed.

Lots of growls started to overtake the whole surrounding of the forest which was absolutely serene even a while ago, but not any more. And I had no
