I rushed forward in my rage. When Howard the half warlock half demon called a fool after having told that all of Star's love for was fake I lost control once more. I ran at him and grabbed the thing that he had beco by its left hand.
There was genuine shock and surprise in the demonic eyes that Howard was looking at with. This was the first ti that I truly paid attention to them, but both of his eyes were red with a black slit pupil like a snake or cat. He truly was a monster.
When I had a hold of the thing that he had beco I turned and pulled him along with , throwing him over my shoulder. That was the point that his one demonic wing unfurled and tried to flap defensively. Every part of him on the right looked human but everything on the left was exactly like a demon, he wasn't lying when he said he was a half demon. Literally only half.
I couldn't help it then, I laughed at him and the ridiculousness of what he looked like. It also didn't help my laughter that Howard landed unceremoniously on his back, crumpling his one wing and emitting a pathetic whine.
"I thought you would put up more of a challenge, Howard." I laughed again. "This is going to be easy."
"You think so." Howard sneered as he glared at . "I have not begun to fight back. You rely took by surprise because most people do not have the nerve to co near when I am in this form."
"You think you're stronger and scarier than you are, but you're nothing but a cowardly wimp."
"Don't call cowardly." He roared angrily as his entire face, well the human looking half, turned red. The demon half of his face seed to be growing more red fur that made it look more red. Was that his demon equivalent of blushing?
"You have a problem with coward but not wimp?" I laughed. "So I guess you really are a wimp then."
"I am not a fucking wimp or a coward you prick. I am the son of a great warlock and a demon. How could I ever be weak?"
"I don't know, you seem weak to ." I laughed as I twisted his arm in my grip.
I must have twisted his arm harder than I expected that I had because with a sickening wrenching sound his arm twisted right out of the socket. Howard the half demon scread in pain as the blood started to flow from the empty hole where his arm used to be.
The demonic limb, with its elongated claws and bulging bicep was of no use to anymore so I tossed the useless thing to the side and heard it thunk against the wall.
"I am going to kill you now, Howard. I am going to end you for having laid your filthy hands on my mate."
"No, I will not let you ruin my plans. This is my ti to shine, this is my plan." There was definitely a whining attitude coming out of those words. "No, no, no."
He struggled to pull himself out from under then, trying his best to sit up and move in any way possible.
"Astraia, kill him. Don't stop trying to kill him even if it kills you." He scread the words toward the bed where Star was still laying. I watched in horror as she finally started to move for the first ti since I ca into the room.
Star rose to her feet and looked at with anger filled eyes. She curled her body forward and crouched with her hands ready for a fight.
"Star, don't do this. You know . You know who I am. You know that I love you." I needed to talk her out of this, I could never raise a hand against her, ever. I could never hurt Star like that. "Star, I am your mate, you know that. Try to listen to your wolf, listen to what she is trying to say to you. You can break his hold on you, I know you can. You are strong, Star, you're so strong."
I felt my heart skip several beats when she started to walk toward , a snarl coming from between her lips. But, she seed to be stopping and starting, her steps halting every second or two. And her steps were so small and hesitant. Had I gotten through to her? Could the real Star hear ? Was she fighting for control of her body?
"Co on Star, fight this." I called out to her again as she seed to stop altogether. She grabbed her head then as if she was in pain, like she was fighting against herself.
"Stop hesitating, Astraia. Stop wasting ti and just kill him already. He will not fight you, he will not stop you at all, just kill him."
"Fuck you Howard, you son of a bitch. You are a goddamn coward for using a woman, and my mate at that, to fight for you. You should be fighting like a man, you piece of shit." I punched him in the side of the face and saw a bloody gash open along the side near his eye.
"She is mine to command and use how I see fit." He growled through the pain he was feeling. "She is my wife, she took a vow to do as I said."
"The body may belong to you right now, Howard, but the mind is hers and hers alone. And no one, not or you, will ever make decisions for her ever again."
"NO!" Howard roared at my words. "She is mine. MINE! MINE! MINE!" He seed to be having a tantrum beneath .
"Star, sweetheart, please sit back down on the bed, please break his control over you. Do what your wolf is telling you to do."
