.Themoon was full and riding high in the sky.Even as the injuries were inflicted, Lan couldfeel the healing take place.Not that he wasn t in pain.He suffered a broken nose,cracked ribs, bruised kidneys and more.If he could just hang on he d get a chance forpayback.He couldn t do anything that would tempt them in to killing him too soon. Where s your horse, you son of a whore? the Marshal growled, practicallyspitting the words. Lost, Lan gasped through bloodied lips.Marshal Coburn administered a final kick. Danby, tie his hands behind his back.Smith, bring that rope tied to my saddle.These trees aren t tall enough to set you on ahorse, but by God, we can still hang you. Lan was hauled to his feet, his hands roughlytied behind his back. You re gonna die six inches from the ground with your toesstretching to reach the dirt. Landon was marched to the trees, a noose dropped over his head and tightenedaround his neck.He breathed in deep, calm and steady breaths.Any second now.Past Kate Steele Red Cloud Wolves 1: Silver Dreams - 48 -the sour smell of these unwashed men who surrounded him, he could smell themesmerizing musk of wolf.His cock thickened. When I give you the signal, you boys haul him up and tie the rope off.We llwatch him dance until the devil claims his soul, the Marshal proclaimed with asanctimonious air.Heat built behind Lan s eyes, he remembered the glow of Dark s eyes and threwhis head back, laughing like a loon.The men gathered around him stared in shock.Before they could move, an eerie howl rang out in the sudden silence.Lan flexed hisarms and the rope around his wrist snapped and fell away.He reached up and pulledthe noose from around his throat. Wrong place, wrong time. His voice grew steadily harsher with each word.Before the first gun left its holster a whirlwind of enraged fur and snapping teethdescended from the surrounding hills.Dark attacked without mercy, driving the menfrom his mate.Lan hit the ground with a thud, a spasm racking his entire body.As hadhappened the night before, his skin rippled and his bones shifted, but this time ithappened fast.There was no struggle, little pain and no holding it back.Fur sproutedfrom every pore as his body rearranged itself.Shuddering, he panted and rose on four paws.Shaking himself like a dogcoming in from the rain, his humanity took a backseat and watched the beast have itsway.Blood and screams drew his attention.The men had scattered.Three had foundtheir horses and managed to mount the riled animals, spurring away into the night.Dark had taken one down and was working on his second.Marshal Coburn had runinto the hollow curve of rock and fallen over the discarded silver.Lan saw him recover from his sprawl in the dirt, draw his revolver and take aimat Dark.With a fierce snarl and bared teeth he attacked.The gun was turned in hisdirection.Lan twisted at the same moment it discharged.A flare of heat hit hisshoulder, the bullet digging a furrow beneath hair and skin.It slowed him not one whit.He hit the hated man with claws and teeth, ripping and tearing.Shrieks rent the night. Kate Steele Red Cloud Wolves 1: Silver Dreams - 49 -Blood and gore spattered and flew.Lan kept at him until all resistance faded and theman s bodily fluid released, signaling his death.He stood over the bloody pile of unrecognizable gore.The blood and flesh calledand he dipped his muzzle to take another taste.A rolling growl stopped him.Whippingaround, Lan faced Dark.He bared his teeth and growled a warning.Before his eyes Dark transformed. Not that, Dark said, speaking the wordsquietly. Do not foul yourself with that unclean creature, Lan.Come with me.Huntwith me.We will take the prey wolves are meant take. In the blink of an eye, Dark was again a wolf.He turned, nose pointing out intothe darkness.Looking back at Lan, he waited.Lan wrestled his inner beast intosubmission and followed Dark out into the night.The two of them ran.Under theshining moon they raced along for miles.Landon reveled in the stretch and strength ofhis muscles and effortless way he and Dark nearly flew across the arid plain.Soon he smelled water and trees.There were also men and horses.Dark led himaway from the men and into the trees and low hills.The scent of rabbit and deer tickledLan s nostrils.A deer broke cover and they gave chase.Dark managed to fasten histeeth into the deer s flank.The deer went down.Instinctively Lan did what any wolfwould do.He went for the throat, giving his prey the most quick and humane deathpossible.Side by side the wolves feasted.His hunger satisfied, Lan made for the scent of water and drank from a shallowbank at the edge of the lake.He transformed and washed the blood from his body andwatched without surprise when Dark appeared at his side and did the same.Suddenlyexhausted, Landon stumbled away from the water and sank into the cool grass [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
