NovelEnglishChapter 0641 Joyce, despite his best efforts, was not a fighter. He was not bred for war and battle like Hawke was, so even calling on the power of his Alpha wolf, Hawk tossed Joyce aside like he was a sack of potatoes.
However, Joyce did show amazing tenacity, and stood back up tand tagain. Roaring. he threw himself at Hawk, all elbows and poorly-timed punches Hawk blocked and blocked, until finally, he seemingly reached the edge of his patience and grabbed Joyce by the shoulders, stopping him.
"Enough of this," Joyce growled. Magic glowed around his hands, and then Joyce disappeared.
Teleportation.
"Where is he?" I demanded. "What have you done with him?" "He's fine. You think I'd kill off my meal ticket? Hawk snapped. "I simply sent him to a locked room. Now.." Hawk stepped toward me, menacingly. "You are going to fall in line, Piper, or I am going to break you." linched backwards. "I'll never do your bidding." Hawk sighed. "Why can't anyone ever pick the easy way? Oh well." He took another large step.

I pushed my thoughts out through my mind, searching for Miracle, in wolf or bear form, but she was too weary, too weak yet from our last transformation. She wouldn't be able to helpwith this.
"Be a good girl, now," Hawk said, lifting his arms.
Then, suddenly, Nicholas appeared in the shadows behind him. He hadn't been there before. Had he teleported as well? Veronica must have been here! "Don't fucking touch her," Nicholas growled.
Hawk, startled, turned but he was too slow. Nicholas lunged and tackled him, stealing the breath straight from his lungs.
"How are you here?!" Hawk shouted, fear and anger rivaling in his voice.
"You dare to steal my mate from me?" Nicholas was slowly shifting, his teeth elongating and his fingers curling into claws. "You think you can separate us? You think you can use her?" Nicholas soon becomes monstrous, all bulging muscle and fur and rage. He's half-human, half-wolf, a bulky towering, looming figure, with death in his eyes.
"You have hurt us for the last time," Nicholas growled. His claws ripped into Hawk's shoulder. Hawk cried out. Then, as before, magic swirled around him. But unlike with Joyce, this tthe magic curled around himself. He was going to teleport "Nick!" I shouted, but it was too late.
In a flash, Hawk blinked out of view.
Yet, just as quickly, Nicholas snapped his arm out. Suddenly, Hawk reappeared, with Nicholas's hand curled around his neck. Had Nicholas snatched him out of his magic? How was that possible? How powerful must Nicholas truly be? I watch agape and awed as Nicholas ripped Hawk away from the magic.
"Look away Piper," Nicholas said. When I obeyed, I heard a sickening crack. Then a heap, as Hawk's lifeless body crashed onto the floor. Nicholas had snapped his neck.
Hawk, leader of the notorious and treacherous underground, was finally dead.

Nicholas immediately shifted back into full human form. He stepped over the dead man and rushed to me. N I was still trembling, tears in my eyes.
I almost couldn't believe what I was seeing. Nicholas. Here with me. Safe.
Hawk, finally gone.
And Jane... Oh, Jane.
"Nick," I said in a sharp inhale.
Nicholas grippedto his chest as the waterworks start in earnest. Now ve that he was here, I was finally safe, and in that safety, my emotions broke free of their restraints and overwhelmed me.
I sobbed and shook. Nicholas heldthrough it all, gently stroking my back. He must have seen Jane's body lying there. He didn't ask what was upsetting me. He didn't say anything at all. He merely gavethe comfort of his presence and his strong body. X
