Chapter 60. The Coven Alliance

Tania's POV

There were five of them, at the bottom of a hill where apple trees grew above a creek. I moved to the side of the hill, using the shrubs to hide me as I got closer. I was able to crawl close to the edge, about twenty yards from where I figured they would try to escape. Deer wouldn't break uphill. "In position," I sent to my mate.

"I'm going to run straight towards them, get them to panic. Pick your target and trust your wolf, love." He had gotten close, and the deer spooked and ran from him as he tore into the clearing. I tracked a small doe, a yearling, and sprang from my cover as she approached. I covered the distance In a few strides, and it was too late when she saw me. My wolf leaped up, latching onto her throat as my body weight knocked her down.

I tasted the blood in my mouth as my teeth ripped her neck open. I shifted my grip, taking her spine in my jaws and shook. The loud crack of her neck caused her to still, and I dropped her to the ground.<
