Marcus traps Lila against a brick wall in a dark alley, holding his hand over her mouth. Nearby in the rain, Lady Nadia and a wolf tracker search for them. Lila summons silver scales on her skin, turning her eyes pale and releasing a toxic mist. Marcus resists the poison and smiles at her. Lady Nadia hears a sound in the shadows. Marcus warns Lila she cannot escape him, his wolf eyes glowing amber.
Marcus holds Lila against the wet brick wall and clamps his hand over her mouth. Steps away in the dark alley, Lady Nadia searches the rain alongside her wolf subordinate. They track the Alpha and smell the serpent blood.
Lila activates her serpent bloodline to fight back. Silver scales cover her hand, her eyes turn pale, and toxic mist pours out. Marcus absorbs the poison without flinching. He smirks at Lila and calls her power too weak.
Lady Nadia catches a sound nearby and orders the hidden figures to step forward. Marcus leans close to Lila's ear to issue a final warning. His wolf eyes flash amber in the darkness as he turns to face the tracker.
“The alpha just came this way. The serpent remnant cannot have gone far.”
“Let go. You will die in this toxic fog.”
“You want to kill me, your power is still too weak.”
“Who is in there? Come out.”
Lady Nadia calls out toward the darkness and orders whoever is hiding to show themselves. Marcus leans over Lila, telling her she can never flee the werewolf pack. His predatory eyes flare with amber light as he turns to confront the hunters. Will Lady Nadia discover Marcus shielding Lila in the shadows, or will Marcus fight his own pack?
