The She-Devil And Her Alphas

Chapter 268 - Two Hundred And Sixty-eight: That Girl

"I thought I told you not to say a word when we get there!" Chris was upon Trevor the moment they were out of the Moonlight territory.

"Chris, chill!" Shane cautioned him but the man was far from being calm and Trevor was not helping matters.

"Sorry, but that guy is my sister\'s boyfriend, I needed to know how he was faring. Moreover…" he arched his brow," How Is my fault that they preferred to talk to me rather than you?!"

Trevor expected it, but not that much pain, he was backhanded so hard his cheeks stung and blood was drawn from his mouth.

"You arrogant twerp!" Chris grabbed him by the collar.

"Now, Chris! Stop it! You\'re seriously not harassing a little boy!" Shane reprimanded him, loosening his grasp on Trevor.

"No, leave him alone. Come on, hit me! Hit me again, since that\'s what you derive joy from anyway, you sadist!" Yelled Trevor who was now riled up.

"Shut it, Trevor!" Williams was the one holding him down but the boy seemed eager for a beating.

"What are you waiting for? Come and hit me, I bet that would give you joy!"

Chris wanted to spring on the boy and punch shut that mouth of his but Shane pulled him back which made him lurch, "You\'re just as arrogant as your father, I hope you both in hell!"

"Oh, why don\'t we go to hell together," Trevor sassed.

"Seriously," Williams who couldn\'t tolerate this stubborn loudmouth called Trevor anymore, carried him off his feet, and dumped him over his shoulder as if he were a sack of rice.

"Williams, let me down this instant!" He punched Williams on the shoulder but the boy heeded him not and took him away from hearing shot before dumping his ass on the rough ground.

Trevor shot up to his feet, glaring at him," I didn\'t ask for your intervention,"

"Well, you needed one," He said to him.

"Don\'t stop me, Williams" he warned and tried to take a step forward but Williams blocked him.

"You\'re not seriously thinking of going back there to fight him," he asked in disbelief.

"Exactly,"

Williams scoffed," That man is two times stronger than you with years and years of training and experience. He has been doing this all his life and would snap you in two!" He tried to talk sense into him, the boy was headstrong and stubborn.

"Yes, I might not be able to do much to him..."

Williams gave him a look.

"Maybe, nothing at all," Trevor rephrased his words, "But it\'s time someone stood up to him already. I can\'t let him keep oppressing me,"

"And you\'re the one to stop him?" Williams snorted mockingly,

"Trevor, his aura alone oppresses everyone- I included. It\'s Chris we\'re talking here and you of all people should know that you\'d be sanctioned for this," Williams reminded him.

"I don\'t care," he growled," If this is what being a hunter means then I\'d rather quit,"

"Coward," Williams said to his surprise.

"Excuse me?"

"You\'re a coward,"

Trevor flexed his jaw," Are you now the next person to anger me, huh? Is that it?" He asked with a not so pleased expression.

"You\'re a coward, Trevor. Just because of this little persecution and you\'re already thinking of giving up?!" Williams hissed.

"What Chris did is called bullying in human vocabulary and so many people have died because of it!" He defended himself fiercely.

They stared at each other intensely; eyes shooting fire with jaw clenched tight, until both realized how beautiful each other\'s eyes were. Something else stirred up during that staring contest and both took their eyes away instantaneously.

"A-hem,"? Trevor cleared his throat awkwardly, leaving right away and this time, Williams didn\'t stop him.

The anger had died off but the fire burning between them had increased, hence both stopped before it escalated into something else.

Meanwhile, Shane also pulled Chris to the side when the kids left, with a pissed facial appearance.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Are you now a sadist as he claims?"

"Get your hands off me!" Chris pushed Shane away from him yet the man was not bothered and continued nevertheless.

"I get that you had problems with Renard, but this is his kid who had no idea whatsoever transpired between the both of you nor did he contribute to it... " He said, a little out of breath and staring his partner in the eyes.

"I\'ve turned a blind eye to your attitude," Shane continued, " but not anymore. Stop transferring your aggression on the poor boy or I would be forced to report your abuse of power to the higher up, partner or not," he warned.

Chris gritted his teeth, "You\'re taking his side now, huh?"

"There\'s nothing like taking sides here, I\'m just doing what\'s right? and you should get over the fact that Renard never chose you,"

Yep, Renard and Chris were a thing in the past and though most hunters didn\'t know about it, everyone in their group knew.

They had been so sweet with each other until Renard suddenly broke up with him for reasons best known to him alone. No amount of probing could get the truth from Renard\'s mouth - the man was so damn persistent.

Then years later, Chris finally got to know that Renard had a family behind his back all this while.

Shane could understand how betrayed his partner currently feels. Still, that doesn\'t give him the right to torture the poor boy just because of the sins of his father.

However, Shane was now concerned about his son Williams, history somehow seems to be repeating itself.

He knew his boy, Williams, likes Renard\'s son, Trevor but the boy was hesitant in accepting Williams\'s feelings.

The way things were going, he had better stop both of them from falling deeper in love before they hurt each other further. He wouldn\'t want his only son to turn out like Chris at all; he must end their puppy love now.

Both of their cellphones rang at once causing them to look at each other with knowing looks, something must have happened.

They picked up, listening to their subordinate\'s instructions and reporting their findings.

"Two wars in one night, how strange could it get?" Chris commented as soon as he ended the call.

"I don\'t like this growing incident, I\'ve gotten used to the peace. Besides, this old man needs a break," he complained, stretching his stiff muscles.

Chris shook his head, retracing his way back to where the others were waiting for them.

His eyes connected with Trevor who looked away scornfully. He closed his eyes, reining in his anger.

Chris felt a squeeze on his shoulder and looked up to see Shane addressing the kids.

"There has been a change of plans. In one word, that means we\'re heading to the Raven clan and? Trevor…"

Trevor looked up.

"You\'d be receiving your punishment for disobeying your superior there "

Trevor wanted to complain but Williams cut him off with a look.

"Trevor Darlington accepts your judgment, Sir" he had no choice but to accept.

The other hunters who came with them began to murmur amongst themselves, everyone had seen that one coming - they just wondered what kind of punishment was reserved for him.

"Set up a portal for Raven clan, the others get ready to leave," Chris gave out orders.

"You shouldn\'t worry, Trevor, hence the punishment is not set back at headquarters, it should be a light one," assured Williams.

"I\'m not scared, I can take anything they throw my way," Trevor said with determination.

If his father had gone through all this and turned out to be one of the best hunters, he would survive his turn too.

Or so Trevor thought until they appeared in the Raven clan where he threw his guts up. The sight was downright gory.

It was almost daybreak, they had spent most of the night at Kinney village. So he could make-out the piles of bodies without their vision gadgets.

Since they weren\'t given consent to investigate by the werewolf at Kinney village, the hunters focused their time and resources on the humans. Making sure they were accounted for and given the best treatment to survive whatever injury they sustained in the attack- the were-creatures could care of themselves.

Bodies lay in a skewed position with intestines spilled out without reserve as if it was a normal thing. Trevor swore he would never eat hot dogs after this.

Diverse body parts mostly the brains were squashed like the toothpaste he uses every day with most bodies missing a heart - to kill vampires quickly, go for the head or heart.

"Clear the bodies, Trevor, that\'s your punishment," Shane said to everyone\'s shock.

Trevor threw up the second time, this has got to be the worst day in his life.

"I\'ll share his punishment," Williams stepped in.

"Suit yourself," Shane said which made Chris grimace.

Punishments were not meant to be shared and he knew Shane had assigned the boy here on purpose.

Clearing this many bodies in the first place was ridiculous and there was no way his love-starved son would let his love interest cover all of that by himself.

Both-Chris and Shane- moved ahead to scan the extent of the damages and weren\'t surprised to see another batch of hunters before them which was pretty normal in situations like this.

"The war at Kinney has got nothing on this one. If that one was brutal, this is cruel," observed Chris scrunched over a corpse.

"And by the look of things, the Nicoli clan won," Shane contributed.

"At least we know who to question," he added, "If they let us," Chris said wryly.

Shane rolled his eyes, his partner was still not over the way Moonlight pack treated him. The man was so used to having his way that being refused looked like a big deal to him.

"Chris look," he somehow caught a body move while glancing around bored.

They hurried over to the vampire who by the looks of things wasn\'t going to last seconds more - it was a miracle he survived this long.

"Hey, can you hear us?" Shane questioned, refusing to shake him in order not to make his condition worse.

Within his watchful eyes, he saw Chris open a small bottle and poured the whole contents down his throat.

Shane\'s eyes widened," What the hell Chris, how did you get your hands on -"

But Chris shoved him aside and moved to place his hands on the Vampire\'s temple which caused memories upon memories of the fight from last night to rush into his head.

It was just as Chris imagined, a battle between the Raven and Nicolli clan, until he saw a striking face, and the memory faded away as the vampire gave up the ghost.

Chris awoke with a gasp, only to find himself back at his place. How did he return?

"At last, you\'re back from the land of the dead," Shane said with a grim press of his lips, obviously displeased at his actions earlier.

Oh, that must have knocked him out cold.

"I\'m sorry," he apologized.

"I\'m sorry, huh? What if you had died? What were you thinking of taking that banned serum?"

"At least, I discovered something interesting," was his reply.

Shane\'s interest was piqued, "What did you see, Chris?"

"I\'ll tell you once I\'m done with my investigation," He replied, a smile tugging his lips.

His instincts were right, that girl …
