All Chapters of Marked by the Hunter's Daughter: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

“ I found her," he spoke. His eyes glowed as he stood up and was slowly transforming back to human."I almost died."Raymond’s leg shivered and then he chased after Alex."Would you slow down a bit— Nevermind, I will catch up later!""Alex, where?""The old basement!"Ray fell to the ground as he panted. "H-hey," he greeted the students passing by and smiled while waving. My reputation! he screamed in his mind.Alex kept on rushing to the location, jumping the stairs over and over, passing and rushing past people. A girl frowned as she watched Alex heading to the place. She took her phone and spoke, "He is coming, get ready."Alex came out of the corner and stared at a black rusty door in the slightly dark area. He rushed over, opened the door, and went into the dark room without thinking twice."Layla! Layla!" Alex called out as he searched for her."Alex?" Layla said in a weak tone as she came out from behind a metal box where she sat down.The light coming from the open door shone

The urge to kill was screaming inside him. But the person in front of him wasn’t an enemy — it was his best friend, the boy he had grown up with, his brother in all but blood.And what Ray had said… it was true. The truth hurt.He stood there, chest heaving, groaning as he fought to keep himself from losing control. Then a thought pierced through the rage — Layla.Her smile. Her voice. The way she looked at him.He focused on her, and slowly, the pounding in his chest began to slow. His breathing evened out. The shift receded.Within seconds, he was back to normal.Ray stared at the monitor in his hand, his voice breaking the tense silence. “His heart rate is going down… he did it.”Ruth allowed herself a small smile, even though she quickly erased it before anyone could notice.Ruth smiled despite trying to stop herself, but quickly wiped it away before anyone noticed.“Even your smile is scary,” Ray said with a smirk. “I mean… less scary than your normal face, but still.”Ruth tilte

The mushroom-shaped cloud of flames vanished after a few seconds, but the car was still burning.“Calvin!” Ruth frowned, gritting her teeth.Fortunately, she had been quick enough to leap out of the car just before the explosion. She could now hear the uproar of the hunters as they closed in, surrounding her position.With a sharp grunt, she pulled a jagged piece of metal from her thigh and forced herself to take two deep breaths.Calvin lowered his sniper rifle, eyes locked on the spot where he had fired. He motioned for the other hunters to move forward slowly, wanting to confirm that she was truly dead. Although he was certain the explosion had hit Ruth, he wasn’t entirely convinced it had finished her.Ruth opened her eyes, the amber glow already shifting as her body transformed into her werewolf form. She could hear the steady, deliberate footsteps of the hunters approaching. She had to act fast.Rising from her crouch behind the wrecked car, she let out a feral roar that rattled

As Alex continued to absorb Ruth’s pain, he noticed bullet holes in her hand.“Hunters…” he muttered, frowning, relief mingling with anger as he continued channeling the pain into himself. He gritted his teeth, feeling energy coursing through him and into her body. His gaze shifted to the crescent mark on her arm—it was glowing red, pulsating slowly.Alex stopped absorbing her pain for a moment, observing the mark. It seemed to grow brighter, then pulsed again as he resumed channeling her pain. Suddenly, a sharp surge hit him like lightning. His eyes flashed yellow, and he felt paralyzed, unable to move. Something unexplainable surged from Ruth’s body.The bullets embedded in her hand began to disappear, healing swiftly. Flames that had engulfed her ignited briefly together with the energy coursing through Alex, but then extinguished on their own. His hand was unharmed despite the intense heat. Finally able to move, Alex gently laid Ruth’s head down and stepped outside, taking deep br

The hunter behind the first one who had died noticed his comrade was gone. Panicking, he alerted everyone and fired his gun toward the break where he suspected the enemy was.Bang! Bam! Bang! The gunshots continued for a while before silence descended. The hunters were at the brink of collapse, realizing they had enemies waiting outside. Confused, they didn’t know what to do.The choice they made was risky, but they had no other option—they had to try.“Everyone, move out at once!” Calvin commanded. They charged outside.“Retract for now!” another command was shouted. They rushed toward their vehicles—and then everything exploded.Boom! Boom! Boom! Three of their SUVs blew up, the blast sending some hunters flying back.“Arrgh!” They crashed heavily onto the ground, groaning in pain. Wounded and disoriented, they scrambled, trying to regain control.“Look out! It’s on the cliffs!” one hunter shouted, warning the others. Suddenly, a shadow flashed past them. Everyone brought out their
