Kai let out a soft whine when Warren didn't turn to look at her. His ears twitched and his head turned slightly. Had he heard her or had he heard something else? She took a cautious step forward, but before she could take another, Warren was off again, tearing men apart limb from limb. There was nothing she could do but stand and watch in silence. Kai wanted to rush forward, to help Warren, but something told her to stay put, that if she did try to help, Warren might not see it as help and attack her too.<br/><br/>When he was done, the men on the ground in pools of blood, Kai thought it was safe to approach him. That's when she heard the voice. It was unfamiliar for a moment before she could register it; it was the woman from the phone... Gaze shifting from Warren, she found the woman standing by the cabin. Against the white snow, her hair was as black as night, her blue gaze almost as piercing as her own. She didn't look like a monster, like the kind of woman who would murder her own son, but Kai knew it was just a facade. Just because she was beautiful on the outside didn't mean she wasn't a hideous person on the inside.<br/><br/>Then everything happened so fast. Before she even had time to react, the woman pointed a gun right at Kai. Her blue eyes went wide, staring down the barrel of the pistol. She was going to die. That was it. She'd come all this way to help Warren, only to die before she could do so. When the gunshot sounded, echoing through the trees, Kai expected to feel an immense amount of pain, but none came, only the feeling of something, two somethings hitting her with force, causing her to hit the ground. Then it sounded again and that's when she realized she hadn't been shot at all. Instead, the bullets found their home in Warren's already bloodied pelt.<br/><br/>Kai stared in horror as her mate was shot over and over, the woman not letting up until Warren stopped moving. He wasn't moving... From that distance she couldn't see if he was breathing she couldn't feel him in the back of her mind... All she could feel was his pain slowly filling her body, each wound on him hurting as if she'd been shot herself. Ignoring the pain, she let out a gut wrenching howl filled with pain and anger.<br/><br/>Before she knew it and without thinking, Kai was on her feet and taking off. In a split second, she'd crossed the clearing, jumping right over Warren's limp body....and tackling the woman to the ground. Snarling, she tore the gun from her hand, teeth digging into and ripping the skin. Tossing it out of reach, Kai stood over the woman, big paws pinning her arms down. This bitch wasn't going anywhere.<br/><br/>Any last words? Kai asked, her words, even in the link, laced with poison. She was going to kill the woman either way, but she may as well let her say one last thing before she tore her throat out.
