The sky cracked.
No thunder. No lightning. Just sheer presence. A tremor in the heavens as the ground itself held its breath.
The Winter Wolf was stunned at Jayden's sudden recovery. He was just a few seconds away from freezing up completely. Losing the fight and going into a forever sleep.
And it still looked like he was... his body was still stiff and his joints were still frozen. But yet, he looked so confident.
That made her excited about what would happen next.
Jayden on the other hand, kept grinning. His eyes locked on the Winter wolf.
His fingers twitched.
Once.
Twice.
A low growl rumbled from deep in his chest. No... not a growl. A warning. A sound so ancient it shook the air, a sound born from primal bloodlines older than the moon.
Then...
BOOM!
A geyser of heat exploded from his body, vaporizing the frost clinging to his flesh.
The icy curse on his outer body shattered like glass. His skin turning normal again.
