Chapter 46
Garfield West ~
“She’s going to die!” “Sofia cannot…” Ryan was barely done with his statement when a strange voice interrupted him.
“Definitely not! The defeat of that heartless beast depends on Sofia taking the trybrid child and her alpha mate into the supernatural world and the chances of that going to happen when she’s dead are zero to infinity.” A voice speaking through Red said cutting Ryan short of words.
“Gar, Ryan and Charlie, you guys would have to shift backwards and take cover for some few seconds!” the voice said again this time with more forcefulness in her tone. “I can save her and I intend to.”
“Wait? What? Who’s speaking?” Charlie said turning towards the direction of the voice – Red.
“Ryan? Do you have any idea what’s going on with Red? It is almost like someone else is spe
Chapter 47Garfield West ~“About four of them to be precise. They obviously came for…. They came for you.” Mrs. Flora said turning to meet the confused eyes of Red.“Mom, what do you mean by ‘they came for me’ and why does he keep calling you that?” Red asked.It was far from obvious that she was confused. I would be if I was in her shoes right now. Even after Ryan told me about the supernatural world and some others about ‘Elena’, everything still messed up in my head so I’m sure that Red is in a similar shoe if not worse.“For a very long time now, I have been hiding so much from you. I don’t know how things managed to get like this but they did and I’m so sorry for everything happening to you now. I should’ve hidden you better.” “Hearing me say this must be very confusing for you but I did what I had to just so I could save your life and so many oth
Chapter 48Garfield West ~“Ryan, you didn’t really think that Cassius would send just four lycans after the trybrid child, did you? Or that he would send us here with just lycan abilities when he has numerous ones to share? Did you?” the voice said exposing his first of claws.Lycans!Probably, they could have been here the entire time. Somehow, the lycans were able to camouflage themselves from the sight and hearing of any of us. The first that appeared out of nowhere gave Ryan a blow in the gut and then, the rest of his friends came out from hiding.Some walked down the stairs, some coming out of the different corridors and rooms. They were all over the place and when they had themselves in the room with us, they stood behind the first who appears to be their leader.My first thought was to protect Red but another thought came suggesting that I go for Charlie and I ended up going with that. I got to where Red, her mom an
Chapter 49Red Adamson ~“Lycans, bring me her heart!” it happened so fast and before I could count to two, the lycans came charging at me with their fearsome appearances.Fear crept into me at the sight of the lycans fixing their target at me. Why do you want my heart? I felt like asking Cassius. I needed no one to tell me that his intentions were pure evil but what do I have to do with any of this? He seemed very patient though.None of us here including myself could control any command of magic so having me as he desired shouldn’t be so hard. He was taking advantage of the fact that we were powerless to enjoy the moment. If only I could control the power everyone keeps saying is within me but I can’t. Not yet at least.Gar stood in front of me, Charlie and my mom with nothing but a pocket knife to defend us. I admired his courage but deep down, I know that I won’t be able to forgive myself is something dreadful happ
Chapter 50Red Adamson ~“Charlie, I know those lycans and calling the cops for protection or whatever you think they can offer wouldn’t be enough but neither would arguing work.”“If Cassius actually possessed the mind of their leader, that means that nowhere is safe for us. We just need to create a long distance between us and them and the more we keep this whole thing to ourselves, the better because human and lycans were never created to meet….”“I’ve had enough of this!” I yelled so loud that my voice echoed back to me. “Gar, pull the car over! Mom, I’m not going to run anymore until I know exactly what is after me and why. Everything that has happened this night ever since Gar placed his lips on mine have been nothing but confusing and I want answers. Why?”“You have to tell us everything! You have to tell me everything!” I said with all urgency inscribed on
Chapter 51Red Adamson ~“By birth, you are a Vampyre, a Mutant Lycan and an elder Witch.” “The first ever trybrid of these powerful creatures in the history of the supernatural world. That’s why you are so special.” “Elena, your conception was a miracle.”“Wait, I’m one of those things trying to rip out my heart?”“I’m a Lycan?”“I’m a Lycan???”“No, a mutant lycan. They are far stronger in terms of everything compared to lycans. They are rare in nature but your father was one.”I’m a vampyre, witch and a mutant lycan. It sounds exciting at the same time dreadful. I was familiar of course through stories of all their abilities and strengths and weaknesses but I never once knew I was one of them.“This must be why you bought so many of books having these creatures and some others for me when I was
Chapter 52Red Adamson ~“Singing basically has to so with an outburst of emotions- happiness, sadness, heartbreak, love and so when someone like you sings, you can mistakenly perform magic if the person lacks magical restraint and self-control.” “That explains why after you sang or while you were singing, your arm became so.”“You had successfully broken the spell keeping your magic dormant.”“Elena, before you came into this world, a powerful witch called Morgana casted a spell on you. The spell was to keep your abilities dormant for at least, two decades. Whatever has happened in the supernatural world, magic came here and your abilities must have surfaced trying to weaken the spell.”That explains the whole stage transformation. All these while, I have had these powers within me but a spell kept them at bay. Thanks to Gar’s and Charlie’s persuading skills, I sang and broke the spell bu
Chapter 53Garfield West ~Just as Red or now, still, ‘Elena’s’ mom was spitting out more unbelievable words about herself and Elena, somehow, the lycans got themselves into the warehouse. The voice of the leader made it clear when he spoke from the high walkway placed on a higher floor of the spacious warehouse where Elena had used her powers to get us to.I came out of the car with the few things I could regard as weapons that I had found in the warehouse when Elena’s mom told me and Charlie to barricade the entrances and the exits.Luckily, ever since Elena got us here, the light system in the building seemed to be working just fine making the warehouse as illuminated as we needed to see the lycans without any difficulty.“Elena, get out of the car!” I said to Elena on my way out watching the lycans charge violently with nothing but their claws and teeth as means of attack.“What?!? You want me to
Chapter 54Garfield West ~I ran the knife through every single lycan that stood in my way to the leader and watched as they all burnt to ash. There was no healing from that. In one leap, I got myself to the walkway where the leader was and I walked towards him with a tight grip on the knife.The lycan transformed to his supernatural form and I fixed an aim at him and threw the knife with so much force that it was as fast as a bullet. To my surprise, he caught the knife by the handle just as the knife was about piercing his chest.“I don’t know who you are or how you got here but one thing is clear about you. You don’t fight fair!” the leader said with a grin. “But that’s fine! Neither do I!”He threw the knife back at me with even more force than I did, him. I made a quick reflexive turn making the knife fly right pass me and it burst through the bricks holding the wall of the warehouse. I turned and an un
