Chapter 242
242 WE CAN LEAVE THIS PLACE
“I don’t want you to fight...” Emily lowered her head and stared at her shoes, looking very sad. She knew what Atbikai meant and if something happened to Eros, she would be forever alone in this world. She didn’t want him to get hurt. “Let’s leave this pack. I don’t want to be here anyway.”
For a moment, there was silence that spread between them, while the sun finally set and the street lamps became the only source of light.
The night would be so cold later on, but the two of them didn’t seem to have any intentions to leave. They didn’t want to go back to that pack house that was filled with creatures that hated them because they were so different.
“I will fight, Emily,” Eros said. He extended his hand and ruffled her hair. She had long hair now and it was so soft to his touch. He liked the texture of it. “I don’t want to run. We don’t need to run.”
“What if...” Emily couldn’t finish her words, to think about it alone already brought a horrible feeling to her, thus she couldn’t bring herself to say it out loud.
“If worse comes to worst, you know what to do,” Eros said. He had a plan for Emily. It was safe enough to allow her to be able to survive if the outcome of the Atbikai turned out to be something he didn’t hope for.
“I don’t want...” Emily snapped her head and looked at Eros with teary eyes. “I don’t want you to fight him.” Emily then hugged him tightly and cried on his shoulder. Her hair brushed against his cheek and immediately, her scent engulfed his senses. “Please, let’s leave now. We can go everywhere. I promise I will be good and follow whatever you say.” She sobbed pitifully which turned into an ugly cry when Eros caressed her back.
She would miss all of this if something happened to him in the fight.
However, Eros couldn’t do that. He had something in him that did not allow him to back down from a challenge. He couldn’t let someone else walk all over him by backing away from a fight.
.....
He loved Emily, he loved his life, but it was not enough to make him swallow his pride and give up.
“Please...” Emily cried and her body was shaking.
“I am sorry...” Those were the only words that Eros could offer, though it was not enough for the girl and it was definitely not enough to pacify her either.
====================
Zuri watched how Chaos approached the bald man, with a body full of tattoos and was blocked by two men that were guarding him. However, he could get past them easily. There was one more thing that made the whole situation easier for him to get to his target. His power.
Chaos could do whatever with the power that he had and no one would be able to stop him. Nothing would be strong enough to stop him.
Therefore, when he proceeded to walk toward the man, who was staring at him with a shocked expression, while the men around him that were supposed to guard him failed to do their task, as they stared at him blankly, the next thing that happened was predictable.
The bald man was gone once Chaos touched him and none of them that witnessed this oddity freaked out. They didn’t give a proper reaction and stood there, as if nothing had happened. As if there was no man that abruptly vanished into thin air.
Meanwhile, the people around them carried on with their lives, not having any care about what just happened.
Zuri had gotten used to this and the only thing that reassured her was; those men were deemed to die. It was best for them to disappear from this world, because they would be the cause of a lot of horrible things.
Yet, Zuri couldn’t help it. Nikolai’s face always nagged at the back of her mind whenever she thought with that kind of logic in mind, since it would be hard for her to picture him causing a catastrophe or doing something that would cause casualties.
Nikolai was a sweet boy. Zuri vividly remembered how he used to get scared whenever he was bullied and how his father treated him and his sister wrongly. Thus, what kind of crime could he commit?
=====================
Blood trickled down from his hand when he drove the long sword in his hand into his heart. The creature in front of him roared in agony and tried to claw at his face, but the young man had kicked him hard before the creature’s razor sharp claws could touch him.
However, it was not enough to end its life, therefore, swiftly, the man charged forward and slayed its head. It was a clean cut and more blood gushed out from the headless wolf.
It was a big wolf. A rogue, but a supernatural creature nonetheless and despite this creature not trying to attack him at first, he needed to kill the shifter, because it was his duty to kill any of them.
“Nikolai!” Someone called him from behind, followed by a set of loud footsteps that could be heard, echoing through this empty, abandoned building, as their owner drew closer. “Are you okay, buddy?”
Nikolai threw the long sword away. It came in handy that the owner of this building apparently was a sword collector and the sword that he took earlier was made of silver. Shifters couldn’t stand silver.
“I am all right,” he murmured and then looked down at his uniform that was now blotched with blood. His hands smelled like crap. He hated it when he had to be drenched in blood like this. The smell of it was disgusting. “Have you found the woman?”
Mohan shook his head. “She died. We are too late.”
They came here in order to rescue the poor human, who managed to call the headquarters of The Hound, asking for help.
However, this city was completely hard to go through, since this place was closer to Fokosa city, which meant a lot of supernatural creatures would be here to greet them.
What the fuck with that woman? Why did she come here in the first place?! Didn’t she know that this part of the city was the most dangerous place?! And now, she is dead. They risked their lives for nothing.
“Let’s go back to Lucinda city,” Nikolai said. He looked around him, trying to see any potential danger, but apparently, the dead wolf was the only non-human being in this building.
On the other hand, Mohan talked to someone on his communication device and gestured for Nikolai to follow him out of the building.
They needed to move fast or else their lives would be in more danger than now.
“Today is the day the new recruits will be arriving,” Mohan said. “If I am not mistaken, your sister turns sixteen, right? It means she will be a new recruit.”
Both of them climbed the stairs to wait for the helicopter to pick them up from the rooftop.
“Yes,” Nikolai said in a low voice. He had not met with Vanesha for five years. The last time he saw her was when he left her in that crammy shelter building.
Because after that, none of them was allowed to see their families until five years later when they had graduated and became hunters of supernatural creatures. That was what they called a Delta, who completed their training and started hunting down, killing every supernatural creature they could get their hands on.
They were lethal and were armed by the latest weapons and technology.
“Finally, you will meet her again,” Mohan said, he covered his eyes when the helicopter that would take them out of this place came closer to them, flying low.
“Yeah.”
The truth was; Nikolai didn’t want his little sister to be involved in this organization. He didn’t want to see his sister drenched in blood and had trouble sleeping every night after her first kill. She didn’t know what kind of nightmares or hellish training that would wait for her.
They became lethal soldiers for a reason.
========================
“Let’s go,” Chaos said, as he approached Zuri, who was about to dig into her meal. He stood next to her with his arms crossed in front of his chest when he received a death glare from the girl.
“I am eating now. I am hungry,” she pronounced every word clearly, emphasizing how miserable she was because Chaos didn’t feed her well.
It was not because Chaos didn’t want to feed her or order food for her, but he just liked it when Zuri went mad like this. He liked it when she showed her emotions, rather than being her cold distant self from years ago.
Probably, it started around that time too, when he felt she was being so distant from anyone who tried to come closer to her, but then it became a habit and Chaos simply didn’t want to stop.
“I will wait for you at the back of the alley,” Chaos said. He put down a thick stack of bills on the table. Judging how Zuri had gone crazy by ordering so much food, she would need it.
After saying that, Chaos walked out of the bar. The noises in this place irritated him, but he felt good after he got back a shattered soul of his.
Once Chaos was in the empty alley, he pulled out a cigarette and put it between his lips.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
“Smoking now, huh?” A voice suddenly echoed in the empty alley.
