Excerpt
I was frightened, unable to speak a word. The air was frigid against my fiery skin. My breath was showing in the night air. Every muscle in my body locked as he walked towards me. His clawed hand reached toward me, only grasping air. His golden yellow eyes searching before he tipped his head and howled loudly. When he snarled and his legs bent, ready to pounce, I screamed. My muscles would not move at all. I tried to run, tried to move, but no matter what, my muscles wouldn't do anything. I was so scared. His lip curled as he showed his sharp teeth. There was a flash of light and a loud scream. Someone had just saved me.
He pinned Jay and turned his cold grey eyes on me. "Run!" I was still frozen with fear. Jay threw him off, and he slammed into the tree. I heard a sickening crunch as his bones broke. The angel slowly stood up and pushed me out of the way as Jay went to pounce. Jay snarled loudly and trapped the angel against the wall. I was still stuck with fear as I watched the angel tear into Jay. As Jay lay in a crumpled heap, tears poured down my face. Was he dead? Jay did not move from where he was laying. The angel's cold grey eyes turned to me. He licked his lips as if he wondered what I tasted like.
