Dominic managed to catch one of the mercenary who was sent to kill him. Pulling the human by the collar, his enemy looked at him in terror. He begged, “Please! I promise I would keep my mouth shout of what had happened tonight! And I promise I will— I will—”Dominic simply looked at his eyes, offering his question, “Do you have a family or a lover waiting for you back at home?”The mercenary didn’t think before nodding his head in energy, fearing Dominic will kill him before he could reply.“I do! I do! I have a child and a wife!”Dominic looked at the man for a couple of second and a sigh left his well shaped lips.“Even when you’re in front of days you still lie, don’t you?”Watching how inhuman the change of Dominic’s eye color from black to golden caused the man to scream, leaving his last word unheard as his scream become his last dying words.Cain rushed into the forest side where it was burning. Oddly why he had instructed the men to look around the forest for any traces of Ros
Rose watched as more humans being brought into the forest, they were all however mostly lifeless by the time they end up inside the forest.The elderly woman sighed seeing this, “Death has never been easy.”And Rose looked at her, finding the woman gently smiling.“I guess you doubt my words. Most werewolves sees human as creature inferior to them but none of them have difficult feelings against them either. We just see humans as pitiful, whether how easy they die due to old age or how weak they are. But trust that deaths are never easy for us, whether its humans or for werewolves.”Rose saw how one mercenary was holding to his chest but the werewolf did nothing and watch them. She felt terrible seeing a fellow human had been wounded and left to die but seeing the amount of blood shedding from them, she could only watch from afar.The man caught her gaze on him and crawled. Anna quickly stepped in between her and the man as if to protect her from the man’s harmful intention. But from
Rose who had just concluded the bullets to be harmful for everyone in the village, pushed the bullet inside her pocket. Something about it must have been different than ordinary metals. Something.. but what could it be?“It’s better if we bring all the wounded ones and the children somewhere more safe,” she then prioritized and Anna agreed.“Let’s move to the cellar,” Anna quickly ushered everyone to follow her. With the help of Martin who took the role to guard them as they moved to hide on the cellar that was built underneath the elder madam’s house.Rose watched as the children goes down only to hear a shuddering and inhumane cry coming from far outside the house. The voice seemed to sound even terrible for the werewolves as they grunted while covering their ears.“What is that horrible noise!” Martin shouted, hoping that his own voice can reduce the pain stabbing his eardrums. Rose quickly looked over the windows and how she shuddered when she saw a creature, much bigger and tall
What was this man talking about?? He went on and on on his own monologue as if forgetting she was there. Rose looked around her while the man continue to speak.“Say do you know that there are not many things that could vitally wound werewolves?” The man spoke when she caught at the corner of her eyes was a candle holder that had sharp ends. She looked back at him, “That bullets you had from earlier?”“Oh? So you indeed know magic?” He chuckled as if taking her previous statement as a funny jester to trick him.“No, I don’t. So that was magic that you used on that bullet?” She questioned, that would mean there is many magician… no sorcerers in this world who are like him? Who knows how to kill werewolves?!“Close but wrong. Do you know how magic is close to science? There are some people who learn science but was suspected as a witch and got killed,” he continued, “Sadly those people had killed the wrong people.”“So that bullet was made by science?” She asked, questioning as it seem
He looked at her, albeit looking down on her quite literally as his eyes stared down at her face that turn rigid as she found the man’s wounds on his left shoulder had mended itself yet the wound that Anna had given to him remained.“You’re thinking that such a mere sword can hurt me?” He looked at her with a smile. “No but I seem to have find out what can grimly end your life.” She nudged her chin to the wound that gravely carved his shoulders.Tired, the man sighed, “You do know that I’m not one who is your enemy?”“Do you think I would agree to letting you kill my own lover? And I will say ‘yes, I will show you the way’?” Rose saw as the man tried to study her face. “He is my soul.”The magician stepped behind. His expression turning darker and although Rose cannot see his smile, she saw he had one before and now it was completely gone.What was left on his face was just a deadly boredom.“Fine,” he uttered. “Then you can die with him.”Rose shuddered when she heard the cries from
Anna went to search for Andrius. Finding him, she relieved a breath, “Where’s Chris?” She quickly asked for her elder brother.“I saw him on the way here, he’s alright,” he then looked at the amount of vampires that arrived, causing him to frown. “Darn it these are more than I thought. A hundred? No it’s over than that.”“What about the captain’s son? His lover went after him,” she reported.“I saw and they seem to be having a very in depth conversation of following us to leave now or not,” Andrius’s face turned firm.“What do you mean leaving?” Anna’s silver eyes looked at him in concern.“As I said, we’ve been here for too long, even more than necessary. We don’t want to stay here truthfully and you and I both know this. Although we cannot find Lady Elizabeth, we found her son isn’t that enough?” Andrius sighed seeing the complexity of Anna’s face. “Let me tell you again. We’re here for a purpose and this is also a good way to help those humans. Staying here will also be dangerous f
As they re-entered the forest, more and more vampires began their attack. It was to the point where the vampires had circled around them and Roses couldn’t see the sky as the vampires began to use their wings and flew on top of them.“They’re multiplying,” Rose said to Dominic who had just fend off ten of the vampires for twenty to come.“Surely there must be a way to stop them for good,” he clicked his tongue, noticing how they had tried to close him and tear his neck but fortunately had not touched Rose the slightest.He noticed that they didn’t dare to touch Rose which was surprising as they didn’t hesitate to harm Cain. But Dominic was more grateful than find this a mystery.“There must be a way to stop them from adding more in numbers,” he said aloud.Cain who was out of breathe, sighed, “Such as finding who actually called these vampires here and kill them? Will that work?”“Rose you said you saw the person,” Dominic looked at her to which she nodded. “Do you know how he had cal
“Everyone should be here now,” Andrius had just spoken when he looked up, following Rose and quickly narrowed his eyes as well. They were quickly put off by the green color inking the sky. There was something terribly off with the forest. “You should go to Anna now,” Andrius quickly told her.“Where is she?” Rose thought Anna had met with Andrius and they had regain forces together.“She should be with Chris now outside of the forest, along with some humans that work under your lover,” Andrius lifted his chin, nudging to Cain. “And who’s this?”“Lord Dominic’s assistant,” Cain filled in. “In that case, we should wait for Dominic there.” He looked to Rose and she was slightly surprise as he waited for her choice. While Cain didn’t trust her fully, he trusted in Dominic’s words and his loyalty was unwavering.“I’ll come with you guys, there should be no one left in the houses anymore,” Andrius picked up a bag of item, pulling it to his shoulder before making his way toward where he ha
