Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 47

Chapter 47 We got a pretty one here

It all happened so fast, Doris was barely able to duck before William had thrown himself on her. A spray of arrows thunked against the trees seconds later, she saw the wood splinter from how hard it hit right where William had been standing. Shouts broke any sense of silence the night had, it turned into chaos and Doris wasn’t sure what she was supposed to do. William grabbed her arm and had her follow him in a crouch across the clearing as a pack of men and wolfs fell upon the guards. William placed her behind a large rock and fallen tree and threw his coat over her. “Stay here and don’t move. Call out for me if someone comes near you.” He said before he turned to face the rogues that ambushed them. Doris gripped the bark of the tree and held her breath as she watched. It was pure madness. Wolves rained down on some of the guards before they could even get their weapons out. She shielded her eyes as one of them got their throat torn out and stomach ripped open. She lost William in the crowd, she wasn’t sure if he shifted to his wolf or if he was still human. There was so much blood in so little time, the entire ground was stained with it. Her eyes tried to keep track of each guard, but they were so spread out it was hard to follow them. Off to the right, a guard got the better of a rogue and slammed his knife through its jaw, Doris quickly looked away and tried to find William again. Where had he gone? Surely he couldn’t be far.

The black one grabbed a hold of the grey one’s neck before it could even think to defend the area. Doris looked away quickly, she didn’t want to see anymore blood shed. She moved across the trees and tried for a more secluded hiding space. When she turned, the black wolf was behind her with a bit of blood dripping from its lips. She saw his blue eyes glow a little in the darkness and felt her fear vanish when she knew instantly who it was. William sniffed her hand once before he turned and put himself back in the fight. Doris picked up an arrow from the ground and tested the sharp tip with her fingers. No one had bothered to give her a weapon to defend herself in instances like this. She would have to make do with what she had around her in case any of them got too close to her. Doris watched the black wolf move through the darkness taking down as many rogues as he could. It was…hard to look away from him. He was truly a force and now she understood why

before the warm blood dripped down her neck. Her eyes blurred with tears, “W-William!” She screamed. The man was off her before she could even finish screaming his name. William went right for his arm that held her and took it completely off his body before he dragged him into the darkness and silenced his screams. Doris shakily stood, one of the guards hurried over to try and put her in hiding again, but they all had seen her already. “Here, take this.” He said. She only just realized it was Erik. He placed a small dagger in her hand that already had a bit of blood on it. “Go for the throat or eyes and be quick about it. They can smell your fear.” Doris nodded when no words formed. He tumed away and threw himself back into the fight with a wolf that met him halfway. Doris tried to take count of how many guards still stood and she was surprised to see a large amount of them did.
