Crystal's POV:
Wasting no time, I lunged at the she-wolf in the pink mask. To her credit, she fought back fiercely. Whatever she lacked in her moves, she made up for in her strength and agility. Thanks to her small stature, she was able to dodge my attacks easily.
For a while, neither of us gained the upper hand.
Then, all of a sudden, she grabbed my hat and wig and tore them off me. "So!" she cried out. "You're a she-wolf, huh? Where the hell is Crane? What did you do to him?"
I didn't bother answering her and just focused on the task at hand. I drew closer to her, desperate to take her down as soon as possible.
Just then, out of the corner of my eye, I caught sight of Arron trying to sneak toward the door.
I needed to stop him before he got lost again. "Arron honey, just stay put!"
My son froze, looking stunned. Then he flung his mask away and revealed his adorable little face. "Mommy! Is it really you, Mommy?"
"That's right. Mommy is here to pick you up." Even as I talked to Arron, I continued sparring with the she-wolf.
My son seemed energized by my presence, as he grabbed a stool nearby and threw it at the she-wolf s legs.
She tried to land a punch on me, but it didn't connect. "You are this brat's mother?" she spat out.
"The one and only," I smirked before flashing her a challenging glare. She rushed at me, but I intercepted her attack, grabbing her by the wrist and
twisting it all the way around.
The sound of popping bones filled the air, only to be drowned out by the she-wolf's piercing scream. Arron picked up the stool again and raised it, no doubt about to hit the enemy once more.
But the she-wolf was quick this time. She kicked him away before he could do anything to her. "You wretched bastard! I should have left you alone and let those idiots cut your limbs!"
