Chapter 274: Controlling The Lycans

Aila stared at Cassius, her heart thumping loudly in her chest, making it seem like only the noise in the room. Even Davian stopped and looked between them and the beasts behind her in the cells. The lycanthrope in the middle cell to which her back was facing suddenly wrapped its gangly furry arm around her neck and pulled tightly. Aila gasped at the sudden restriction to her throat and put her hands on its arm, but it lifted her from the ground as it growled behind her ear. 

"I.. will.. free you.." She croaked with her eyes stinging with tears. 

Cassius and Davian appeared before her, but she kicked her legs out to them. "Stop, Aila!" Cassius grabbed her leg, and she whimpered from the strength in his grip. This then caused the beast behind her to loosen its grip but kept her in place.
