27. Not Today

I risked a glance towards the ground all I could see was green. I forced myself to concentrate. The forest had changed more pines and spruce trees. Then something bright shot from the trees a wave of energy heading right for us. I tried to call to Azrael but the winds was to fast I couldn’t get it out quick enough and we got hit hard. I tried to keep ahold of him but the impact was to much and tore us part. I reach for him but he didn’t reach back he was just falling not moving eye unfocused. What the hell was he unconscious? I braced my self for a hard landing just hoping to not be impaled. All of a sudden I stopped falling mid air helpless to watch as Azrael plummeted to the ground. Hitting hard like a meteor slamming into the earth trees cracking and plumes of debris filled the air. I was helpless to watch screaming to him thrashing trying to break free from what ever had a hold on me.

“There’s no use in fighting little girl you won’t be going anywhere.”

A women’s voice rang through the trees but I couldn’t see or sense her. Slowly I was being lowered to the ground it was like I was in a bubble I could move my body but I was stuck in place.

“Who the hell are you? Do you have any idea who you are fucking with?”

“Sassy little bitch she is. This might actually be fun after all.”

This time a mans voice came through the trees he sounded arrogant and cocky.

“Let me go and you can find out how much fun I can really be.”

I had to sound confident even though inside I was terrified but not for me. Azrael was somewhere I have no clue if he’s okay or how the hell he was knocked unconscious.

“Enough! Get her tied up and take care of the other one we need to get moving.”

I could see her now she was the one who had me magically bound. She had long black hair that went past her waist tied in a braid that laid over her shoulder. High cheek bones taned skinned she looked like a modern day Pocahontas. Where did she get the power to knock us out of the sky? How the hell did she even see us? Take care of the other one, did she mean Azrael?

“You know you can’t kill him you’ll be lucky to be breathing much longer.”

I need to keep them talking in case he does wake up.

“You sure we can’t kill her or at least rip her tongue out.”

The man was rough almost homeless looking I could smell him from here he was a werewolf for sure. Why are witches and wolf’s working together?

“We can’t touch you stupid girl but he’s far game. Go check if he’s dead there’s no way he survived that fall.”

The smelly man took off into the woods I was finally on the ground tied up but not bound by magic. This stupid witch didn’t know what was about to hit her.

“He should of protected you better it was all to easy to find you. Your energy is like a magnet to anything supernatural everyone wants a taste. There’s a bounty out for the two of you kill him capture you.”

The smug look on her face was really starting to piss me off. I had to get free I haven’t had much luck with my angel abilities but I can manage enough to heat in my hands and burn these ropes off. Hopefully not lose control at least there is no one around if it’s get out of control.

“You know you won’t be leaving these woods. Where’s your smelly friend it seems to be taking him awhile.”

“Shut up!”

She then waved her hand and I couldn’t talk. BITCH! This will not end well for her. Anger and worry started to fill me was Azrael okay I wasn’t sure I don’t feel anything like I did when he was hurt before. Okay it’s now or never concentrating I focused on my hands picturing them with light and heat nothing happens.

“You know your Angel boyfriend is dead right some Alpha King, I wonder who collects on the Angel of Death?”

There’s no way. I would of felt it right I’m his mate? It didn’t matter I need to see for my self I needed to find him and this bitch wouldn’t be quite. Then I could feel a heat in my chest I keep focusing on it and Azrael. I needed to get free it didn’t take much I had so much emotion running through me I felt the heat in my hands. The ropes disintegrated I tried to pull it back in but I could feel it continuing to grow hotter. This is what happens every time I can’t control it and bad things happen and people get hurt at least this time it will only be that witch. So I just let it go no use in holding it back this time.

“What the hell are you doing? STOP! STOO…..!”

Was the last thing she said when the heat wave hit her. She turned to ash along with everything around us. The best thing I have learned to compare it to was a solar flair everything metals rock woods flesh turn to ash. Now I need to find Azrael while I still have the energy I always get depleted afterwards. I headed to where he impacted no sign of the smelly one.

“AZRAEL! Where are you? AZRAEL! Answer me you have to be okay!”

No answer I found the crater he left and the smelly ones body laying in it, his throat ripped out. So he was okay but where was he?

“Solaris?”

A gravely voice came from behind me.

“Azrael? Thank God your okay.”

“Trust me God had nothing to do with it. Was that light show you?”

“Yeah I lost control that witch really pissed me off. I see you took care of smelly.”

“Smelly?”

“Yeah the homeless looking guy.”

“He was a rouge they tend to be that way. Wolf’s are pack creatures they tend to lose touch when they are alone for to long. Come we need to get to a safe place.”

He walked over to me I rushed to him holding him as tightly as I could taking in his scent. I started kissing him like it was the last thing I was ever going to do. He responded by pushing me against a tree pining me with his body. I wrapped my legs around his waist the taste of blood still on his lips shook me back to reality.

“Did you drink from that rouge?”

“Yes. The fall damage me he was the closest source I needed to heel fast I needed to find you.”

He cupped my face and kissed me again.

“Azrael we need to go before someone else comes.”

He simply nodded stepping back to let me down he offered a hand and pulled me to his chest and we were up off the ground again.

“Are you crazy this went so well last time?”

“You have another idea for travel you can’t shift remember.”

“You can.”

He smiled kissed me one last time, then stepped back and shifted. The size of his wolf was insane the size of a Clydesdale. He turned to face me nuzzlized mine with his large snout and licked me. Laying on his stomach I climbed on his back his fur was soft I grab a tuff of it to hold on and then he was up and running.
