Her fangs extended fully, massive claws growing from her fingertips, the dark red veins spreading around her almost-white blue eyes.
Shit.
[had to run now or shed rip my head off.
I couldnt defeat Gabrielle! That damn daughter of hersshe knew! She knew Gabrielle was alive, and she had led me here on purpose! Gabrielle, I dont know how you came back, but I owe you no explanations.
I earned my place on the throne through loyal service.
Your daughter could never bear that burden.
Istood tall with dignity, but my eyes never stopped searching for an escape route.

I swear my legs were about to give out.
Damn it.

Apparently, not as hidden as I thought.
Something seized my throat with crushing force, shocking me so deeply that I lost control of my transformation.
My lungs couldnt pull in a single breath.
Icrashed to the ground a few meters away, clutching at my neck, struggling against the invisible claws strangling me.
Steady footsteps echoed behind me.
Cold sweat drenched my clothes.
Icouldn't die.
I wouldnt surrender to her without a fight.
