Alex POV
I began casting wind spells to augment my speed which allowed me to barely keep up with Amedis. Barrier spells helped to soften his blows, but they still hurt me.
My left leg was fractured, and my arm had healed but was still in pain. The only reason that I was still standing was because I was using magic to keep myself up and to cast healing spells constantly.
Amedis did not seem even to be trying. He seemed more interested in fighting me to test my limits as a werewolf/mage hybrid. But it wouldn’t be long until he grew bored and turned his focus to Loren.
I needed to find Connor an opening to shoot him.
I cast a barrage of flames in his face to hinder his vision. Connor saw his chance and began to unload an entire clip into the Ancient. But the bullets did not make contact with their target. They just hovered inches away from his chest.
Amedis held the moonstone in his hand, which formed a barrier around him, stopping the bullets in mid-air.
