Whatever was going on it was now evident to Neela that the storm was far worse than she had first thought it was; panic and evacuations weren’t something held just for any old gust of wind. A shout reached her ears; Neela could make out her own name but she couldn’t focus on any of the words, panic and anger beginning to overtake her mind as she slowly backed herself into the house, teeth bared and snarling.
A large grey figure burst from the crowds and rushed over towards her. Under any other circumstance Neela would have been glad to see her brother-in-law and friend but now a wall of aggression and teeth presented itself to block Enzo’s approach, mouth opening to issue a feral bark. Enzo responded in kind but his words didn’t seem to reach Neela’s ears, only the angry tone to them which made her close up even more, huddling protectively around Isla. The general gist of his words got through but that just made Neela even more reluctant to let him approach; she didn’t want to move the pups, they were safe and warm and happy where they were!
Finally Enzo lost his patience and rushed forwards, barging Neela through the door with pure strength, causing Neela to yelp. Neela could beat Enzo in a fight when weapons weren’t involved, she’d proven that many times over, but now she was panicked, confined and trying to protect the pup taking up her arms. Still she didn’t let him in easy and her teeth clamped down on his arm, sharp teeth turning red as she shook her head from side to side before his momentum nearly knocked her over and forced her to let go. She hadn’t achieved anything but the smell of blood was satisfying.
She was prepared to argue more, to try and defend her home but Enzo took the choice out of her hands by simply picking up two of the pups – Grynn and Luca – and simply running, giving Neela no choice but to stare agape for a moment and then pick up Callum and follow him into the courthouse.
