-Grayson'’s POV-

| hit the ground hard.

The impact rattled through my bones, my ribs screaming in agony as | tumbled onto the dirt. The world blurred,

but I didn’t stay down. | couldn’t stay down.

A savage growl ripped through the night as Dylan lunged again, his massive wolf form a blur of dark fur and

gleaming fangs. His breath was hot, thick with the scent of blood-Ava’s blood-and that alone sent a wildfire of

rage tearing through me.

I didn’t think. Didn't hesitate.

I met him head-on.

Our bodies slammed together with a force that shook the very ground beneath us. | felt the crunch of ribs-not

mine. His. But he didn’t falter. His claws arced through the air, slicing toward my throat.

| ducked. Spun.

His fangs snapped inches from my face. | caught the glint of his eyes-burning, ruthless.

A snarl ripped through my throat as | struck, my claws raking across his side, splitting flesh, spilling blood. Dylan

roared, his massive frtwisting as he retaliated, teeth sinking into my shoulder. Pain flared, white-hot and

searing, but | used it.

| slammed my weight into him, forcing him back. The ground beneath us tore apart as we clashed, claw against

claw, fang against fang.

He was strong. But | was stronger.

Lightning split the sky above us, a blinding flash illuminating the battlefield. The storm had arrived in full force.

Wind roared through the trees, rain hammering down, turning the dirt beneath us into slick mud.

But | didn’t care about the storm. I cared about the bastard in front of me.

Dylan lunged, his claws slashing through my side. | barely flinched. Pain meant nothing. | lashed out, my paw

crashing against his muzzle with a sickening crack. Blood spattered onto the ground as he staggered back,

shaking his head, his breaths coming in heavy, ragged bursts.

But he wasn't finished.

With a snarl, he leapt, his full weight crashing into me. We tumbled, rolling through the dirt, snapping jaws and

slashing claws locked in a deadly blur.

And then-he pinned me.

Dylan’s massive paws pressed against my shoulders, forcingdown. His fangs bared, saliva dripping onto my

fur as he loomed over me, claws digging into my chest.

“This was always your fate.” His voice slithered through my mind, thick with triumph. “You were never going to

win.”

Lightning flashed, illuminating his face twisted in a snarl.

And then-I let go.

For half a second, he wasn’t expecting it. His weight lurched forward, unbalanced. And in that half-second, |

struck.

One.

A savage bite to his shoulder, my fangs sinking deep.

Two.

A powerful swipe across his ribs, clawing through flesh and muscle.

Three.

| seized his throat between my jaws, biting down, crushing,

Dylan howled, his body spasming beneath me. Good. Let him feel it. Let him know what it we like to lose

The storm howled above us, trees bending under the force of the wind, rain pouring down in the Tanter codes

overhead, the night itself trembling

But there was only this fight. Only him. Only me.

Dylan snarled, shoving upward with every ounce of strength he had left. We rolled Crashed. We slammed into

the wife of the ship and it bent beneath the impact. My back burned, but I didn’t stop. | drove my paw into his

gut, sending him staggering.

For a split second, he hesitated. And that hesitation cost him.

| lunged. Hard. My fangs tore into his side, my claws digging deep, locking him in place. No escape. He gasped

blood gurgling from his throat. His eyes-wild, desperate-locked onto mine.

“You took her,” | snarled, my voice no longer human. No longer sane.

Dylan's body trembled beneath me. For the first time, fear flickered in his gaze.

“No one touches what is mine.”

| sank my teeth deeper.

His body spasmed. His paws weakly clawed at my grip. But it was over.

The wind shrieked through the forest. The rain pounded against us. The earth itself seemed to hold its breath.

And | was ready to end him.

But then a scream tore through the chaos.

Ava.

My head snapped toward her just in tto see her stumble. Blood poured from her leg, staining the deck

beneath her. Too much blood.

Rickon was already there, shielding her with his body, his gun raised as he tried to pull her up. His face was tight

with focus, but the madness around us was spiraling out of control.

The ship was no longer just a battleground-it was war.

Dylan’s men had shifted, their monstrous forms crashing into my men, claws meeting bullets in a violent storm

of b and fury. Snarls and gunfire filled the air, mixing with the howling wind as the storm raged around us.

Lightning flashed.

Thunder cracked.

The sea roared, slamming waves against the ship’s hull.

And then-Ava screamed again.

My attention wavered just for a second. Just long enough for Dylan to move.

Too late.

Claws sank deep into my side.

Twisting.

The pain was blinding, sharp and raw as fire. Dylan ripped into me, his snarl thick with victory as he tore through

muscle and flesh. | felt the warm rush of blood spilling down my fur.

But | didn’t let go.

A guttural snarl tore from my throat, rage swallowing the pain whole. | grabbed Dylan and threw him.

His body slammed into the metal railing with a sickening crack.

Lightning split the sky, illuminating the chaos around us. Wolves clashed in a tangle of snapping jaws and

slashing claws. The storm shrieked through the rigging, the deck slick with rain and blood.

And then the ship tilted.

A monstrous wave crashed into the side, sending bodies stumbling, skidding across the slick metal.

Dylan staggered. His claws scrabbled for purchase as the deck lurched violently beneath us.

I moved.

One final strike.

I lunged.

The impact sent both of us hurtling over the edge.

The world disappeared as cold hit my fur and the ocean swallowed us whole and the weight of itdown in a

rush of black water and freezing pressure. The storm above raged on, waves crashing like thunder, but down

here, everything was muted, muffled by the endless dark.

For a moment, just a moment, | let myself sink. My lungs burned, my body screaming for air, but | gritted my

teeth and forced myself to stay calm.

| wasn’t dead. Not yet.

Then-movement.

A shadow rushed toward me.

Dylan.

Even down here, in the crushing darkness, his eyes burned with fury. His wolf form cut through the water, sleek

and fast, his claws outstretched.
