Added after publication so you aren't charged: Sorry I'm behind on comments! I'm travelling internationally soon and working like crazy on chapters to publish when I'm gone. Forgive me!

~ TARKYN ~
Tarkyn threw himself sideways, immediately catching his own weight and bracing so hard he slid as he tried to keep purchase and turn to face the attack. The instinct was there to shift, but he couldn't. He knew he couldn't. He needed to speak.
Zev snarled and leaped again, but Tarkyn was prepared for him this time.
What followed were mere seconds of Tarkyn turning, twisting, blocking to keep himself from the teeth of the wolf, but only barely succeeding time and again.
Sweat sheened his brow and his heart pounded, not only because of the exertion, but out of fear.
This male was fast, strong, and determined.
