As she was shoved, Summer screamed \u2014 not with pain or fear, but rage. It sounded like it was shredding her throat, so vicious was it. \u201cToo many words,\u201d she shouted, and half a second later the man with the gun gaped at her, eyes widening, before he dropped the weapon and bolted out the door, whimpering.<\/p>\n

The utter fear she was projecting swept through the house, and she made no effort whatsoever to control it, slamming into every other mind within the walls. Her skin felt like it was on fire, and she stalked up the stairs after the larger man, her hair billowing behind her in a hot wind.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Isaac heard the scream, covering his ears and wishing he wasn\u2019t cursed with werewolf hearing in that moment. Luckily for him, Summer was on his side, so he wasn\u2019t feeling the full effect of her powers. He let out a relived sigh as one of the men dashed out of the house, fear overwhelming him. He found himself not even worrying about the man charging up the stairs: Summer could handle him.<\/p>\n

The man\u2019s eyes widened as he glanced at the woman, astonished by her power: she looked like she could catch alight any second\u2026 \u201cLook, lady, you don\u2019t understand — \u201d he tried to reason with her desperately. \u201cThe man you\u2019re looking after is an animal: he belongs in a cage. He\u2019s not human, he\u2019s dangerous and given the chance he\u2019ll kill us all. Don\u2019t put yourself in danger like that — let me take him somewhere he can be contained. Please.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She snarled, “\/I’m\/ not human. He’s offered me nothing but politeness; you barged into my home at night and threatened me and my guest. \/You\/ are the animal. Unless you want to spend the rest of your life cowering like one, GET OUT.”<\/p>\n

She was so angry she felt sick, a faint tremor in her muscles warning of the edge she was walking. But she could not show even a hint of wavering; this man, this monster, would seize on that immediately. “If you still believe I cannot take care of myself, you are a fool,” she hissed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
