98. Matteo vs Leo

Matteo was quick to pull her away.

He took her quickly by his hand and ran with her. Karina was shocked that Leo pulled the trigger. She got that he was p!ssed at her, but she never imagined…

“Hhh…He just tried to kill me? Matteo?!” She whispered yelled in a worry with tears escaping her.

“Karina, baby! Just so that you know, I wasn’t aiming at you!” Leo’s voice called out from the woods.

“Oh my god his hunting us!” Karina freaked out.

Matteo held her shoulders and grabbed her face gently.

“Look, his not himself. He’s not in control of his blood lust either.”

“Blood lust?!”

“Leo sees you as his prey Karina, but I’m not going to let him get to you.” Matteo tore off the hem of his shirt and wrapped her wound around her neck. They moved stealthy around the woods once more, but Matteo knew he’s wolf was bound to surface at any moment.

“KARINA GET OUT HERE RIGHT NOW!” Leo shouted in a fury as he shot at the tree they were hiding at. Karina screamed and Matteo clamped her mouth shut as he moved her again.

They ran and ran but Karina couldn’t keep up.

Matteo turned around and knew what he had to do.

“You’ll need to go on Knight.”

“Knight?”

“My wolf.” Matteo explained,

Karina shook her head. She’d seen his wolf before and he terrified her.

“IF YOU RUN FROM ME KARINA, YOU KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN RIGHT?” Leo shouted with a cynical laughter trying to find her.

“What did he do to you back in the room?” Matteo asked out of curiosity

Karina shook her head too embarrassed to even tell him what he did to her.

“Tell me or I won’t hesitate to kill him right now.” Matteo warned.

Karina didn’t want him to kill him. But she knew he was losing his patience with him. She sighed out relaying her secret that she thought she’d take to her grave.

“He (coughs) spanked me.” She whispered lowly looking away from his gaze.

“Wait he spanked you?!” Matteo growled ready to beat his a$$ up. But Karina grabbed his arm stopping him. Leo shot another bullet at their location, smirking. He was getting closer.

“Mmm..Matteo..I can’t. Please I’m scared!” She whisper yelled.

Matteo looked down at her warmly and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

“Don’t be. Knight would never hurt you. Have a little faith Karina. Trust us. We will protect you.”

Matteo turned away from her, and got down on all fours. Karina looked away as she heard his clothes rip and tear up with the sound of fast bone cracking. Knight appeared before her and looked at her coming close to her.

Karina stood still noticing the majestic creature as he lowered his head upon at her eye level.

With the sound of some gun shots firing Karina gasped, hugging his neck out of the blue. Knight licked at her arm and nudged his head quickly at her to get on. With no time to waste, Karina gathered her courage and got on his back.

Knight picked her up like she weighed nothing and Karina wrapped her hands around his neck as she heard Leo firing his shots and calling out her name in another fury. She looked back and she caught Leo’s eyes glowing blue, and got down on all fours. Karina yelped knowing what Leo was about to do next.

“Faster Matteo!”

His wolf growled.

“I mean Knight!”

Knight picked up more speed and Karina clung on to him tightly, secretly preying that she would make it out alive from the woods.

Meanwhile Leo chased hard.

C: What are you doing?! The girl is taken, you fool!

Cyrus was too not bothered about this chase. He’s mind was too absorbed in finding his true mate.

L: She’s not! Karina may have been marked but she hasn’t turned. What if that prick changes his mind and really turns her this time?

Cyrus gave up on convincing Leo. He was too hell bent on keeping that girl safe. But he knew all too well, that Leo couldn’t control his thirst. The real reason why he was chasing her was because he was hungry.

C: There are other preys out there you know?

L: I’m not going to eat her!

C: Yeah? Keep telling yourself that. Truth is, you caught scent of her blood and you want her bad.

Leo shut his wolf out and chased him harder.

Soon after, Leo caught up to them leapt over Knight stopping him dead in his tracks.

L: Put her down wolf, I’m taking her back with me.

Knight growled back at Leo.

K: Taking her back? You just want to give her a spanking, don’t you? You dirty cop! Karina is my lamb, and I won’t give her so easily to you.

L: Fine I guess it’s your funeral teen wolf.

Loud growls and snarls from the wolves facing each other erupted and Karina panicked looking back at Leo’s wolf who was glowing his eyes madly blue at her. She whimpered as they started running towards one another.

“Ggg…Guys?”

Matteo charged with speed, and Leo having grasped hold of his wolf speed attacked Matteo from the side, bashing his head on his side, making him fly up against the tree. Karina yelped out, loosing hold on Knight’s back, and fell to the ground heavily.

M: KARINA!

Before Matteo could even hit the tree, Leo leapt to the air and brought his body down heavily biting and clawing at his neck like a mad wolf. Matteo growled out of pain and shock. He fell to the ground defeated by Leo ruthless wolf.

Karina slowly came to and saw Leo’s wolf turning around to face her. Fear spoke in her eyes as his sharp teeth growled at her dripping with saliva.

Karina went on her front side, whimpering scared trying to get to Matteo unconscious wolf.

She suddenly heard fast bone cracking behind her, and saw Leo jogging towards her in his now naked body. Afraid, Karina tried to crawl away from him controlling her fear.

“Karina!”

“MATTEO!! KNIGHT!!! WAKE UP!!” she yelled at the unconscious wolf.

Leo got to Karina and grabbed her foot and turned her around. She yelped crying for Matteo as Leo pulled her body into a sitting position. Karina gasped looking back at his blue glowing eyes.

Leo growled down at her looking at her dominantly.

“Pppp…Please! Let me go Leo. I’m sorry. I’m sorry!” She said knowing that he was angry at her. But Leo didn’t care about her apology right now.

She was in pain. She was an innocent girl caught up in horrible mess.

Leo looked at the blood trickling down from her temple. He brought his mouth holding her cheeks with his hands and darted his eyes upon her bleeding wound.

He growled licking at her wound and Karina whimpered freezing as he did so. No matter how blood thirsty he was. Leo reminded himself that she was his friend. A friend that he failed to protect. Just like Veera. But there was still hope. At least he had the chance of getting her away from this mess.

But first he needed to make amends. Karina was looking at him like he was going to hurt her.

“I’m not a monster.”

“You killed him!” Karina teared looking back at Matteo’s wolf Knight.

He may have knocked him out, however Leo could still hear the beating of that beast’s heart.

“I killed the monster that did that to you. Can’t you see I’m trying to protect you?” He moved her hair to the side revealing her mark. Karina gasped pulling her shirt back over her mark, hiding it from his gaze.

“Well. Time to go.”

Leo pulled Karina up to stand, however her body ached from the height that she fell at.

“No!! MmmMatteo!” She went forward in her limping state to get to him, but Leo pulled her towards him making her gasp.

“Listen to me Karina. You go near that beast, he will kill you this time, and I won’t let that happen. You know why princess? Because you belong to me now.” Leo picked her up bridal style and Karina put her hands on her face crying out Matteo’s name.

“Stop this please! Leo, you don’t know Matteo! He won’t hurt me!!”

Leo clenched his jaw. He was annoyed by the fact that he was siding with that fool than listening to him.

“Karina, you’re confused right now.”

“I’M NOT!” She fired angrily, and Leo growled back fiercely at her, making her freeze in his hold. She slipped out hot tears as Leo carried her away.

Leo then suddenly came to a stop, and sensed that they were not alone.

Suddenly a round of loud claps were heard amongst the dark trees.

Six figures emerged out of the woods.

“He’s come a long way hasn’t he?” The blonde girl wearing a red attire smiled back at the new wolf.

“Yes, Gloria he has.” Said her mate Nico.

Leo saw Franko and his mate Sienna growling at him too.

“Put down the girl Leo.” Kian said glowing his eyes green at him.

Leo growled holding on to Karina like she was his possession.

“You see what I mean Karina? They’re not going to stop until they make you part of the pack.” Leo said.

“Well of course she’ll be part of the pack. Won’t you dear girl?”

Karina nervously gasped out at that notion, holding on to Leo tightly. He was right all along.

Suddenly a mad growl erupted and in came a bleeding Matteo in his now naked form standing beside Leo.

“No one harms her!”

Leo and Matteo looked at one another putting their gritty differences to the side. They understood one thing through their silence. That when it came to Karina, they would always protect her.

“Matteo calm down, you need medical attention.” Sienna reminded looking at her little brother, who was ready to fight them with his claws out.

“Leo.” The familiar sound of that voice made him turn around.

Cora stood facing her ex with a worried expression.

“What’s wrong Cora?” Leo asked.

“It’s Veera.”

G: Twenty says he won’t come.

N: Fifty says he will.
