Clare POV
Leonel snapped his fangs at Troy and I felt joy at seeing the Beta flinch.
He was scared.
I was trying to keep my eyes on Leonel, but without Troy latched onto me, more and more blood flowed out of my shoulder and I felt myself wobble.
Leonel noticed.
He snapped at Troy again, forcing him further back, and then he backed up to me and braced his body against mine to hold me up.
'Shift,' his voice came into my mind. 'I can't carry you as a wolf.'
I didn't even question him. I was getting more and more light headed by the moment and I knew that it would be easier to move me around and treat me in my human form. Closing my eyes in concentration, I shifted back, falling against Leonel for support.
I opened my eyes and looked down at my shoulder and was dazed as I saw that the entire arm was red. Was that all my blood?
My mind couldn't comprehend it.
