The powerful beast charged.
Noah's first thought was relief, assuming the minotaur was targeting its wounded counterpart to finish what it had started. Territorial disputes between creatures of different ranks were common, and fleeing predators often led pursuers toward whatever had disturbed them.
It's going after the injured one.
But to his horror, the charging minotaur completely ignored the wounded creature that represented unfinished business. Instead, its trajectory aimed directly toward Noah and Leo with unmistakable hostile intent.
It's coming for us. Why is it targeting us instead of the prey that it had damaged?
Leo responded to the immediate threat with courage that made Noah's chest swell with pride despite their circumstances. The young lion's body expanded through size manipulation, growing to his maximum combat form.
