133. A PACT WITH MY BEAST NYX The shriek of the little Drakmor got lost in the clearing, drowned out by the roars of those two giants. Her mother fell, knocking down strees, kicking up dust and earth, trying to shake off her attacker-another fierce and bloodthirsty female. Her glowing red eyes were filled with hatred. "Don't interfere!" I ordered the baby without thinking. she whimpered but stayed within the safety of the forest. Ijumped into the fight, fearing the worst.

I screamed as my magic burst into a fierce, crackling whip of power. It lashed through the air and wrapped around the beast's neck. Not even then did she stop her attack to defend herself. 1 feared we were too late, but in the next second, a thick layer of ice appeared around my Drakmor's neck, and the other's teeth sank into the frozen protection.
---- Her roar of pain shook the skies. Furious, I pulled with all my strength, sending deadly currents through the whip, and her whole body was thrown backwards by the pressure. I saw Aidan kick her snout midair and slam her into the ground. Together we managed to overpower her and separate her from the wounded one. I summoned my power and roots like hands sprang from the earth, trapping her, while icy shackles locked around her legs.
She thrashed violently, raging, trying the whole tto destroy the female I had just saved-but she couldn't break free. Iwas about to leap forward, spear in hand, ready to take off her head and end this, but Aidan stopped me. "Wait, Nyx, no!" he blocked my attack, protecting her. "Why are you defending her?!" I yelled, stomping the ground. He didn't answer, only walked up to the prisoner.
Meanwhile, I headed to the mound of black scales, bleeding in several places, yet still licking her pup to comfort her. When I got close, she immediately lowered her head to touch my forehead with her snout. ---- "You're unbelievable. I leave you alone for one second and you're already in trouble," I muttered with a sigh, still clueless about the whole situation. She just stared at me, growling lowly. I called on shealing magic and placed my hand over her most serious wounds.

The silence behindfelt eerie. Aidan stood before the captured beast, reaching out to touch her snout. He seemed to know her, but the Drakmor pulled back, snorting angrily. "You know her?" I asked. "yeah... she's the daughter of the Drakmor Alpha, Ignacio," he said quietly, suddenly sounding melancholic.
"Why is she on this continent? Why are they hunting her, trying to eliminate her?" I asked, and he turned to look at my Drakmor. He sniffed the air, then stared in shock at the pup beside me, who was curiously glancing at him. "Chere, little one. Lettake a look at you," he called to her.
