Semua Bab MY SECOND-CHANCE MATE IS A WOLF HUNTER: Bab 161 - Bab 170

"Stop there!" The hunters screamed from behind me. There was a grin on my face as I ran forward. The wind rushed past my face and my heart raced. I had to admit that I was having fun! An arrow shot through the air and rushed past my face. It was close but it missed. Oh! I thought. That was really close. I immediately took a turn to the left. The hunters followed. I was leading them by the nose. One of them held a bow and he notched another arrow. He had only gotten the chance to shoot out two of them throughout the entire chase. It was harder than it looked to fire arrows mid run. I wasn't even running at my full speed. I knew that I would leave them in the dust if I did that. And I had instructions from Phoenix so I wasn't going to do that. I heard faint sounds coming from deeper in the forest. It was too faint for me to actually decipher what I was hearing, but I had a good idea of what was going on. That was because of Kerrigan! We had a connection and even over a distan

I turned back again.I had slowed my pace drastically, but the men behind me had done the same.Things were no longer fun.In fact, this was actually bad. That’s because we were already stopping the chase and we were still far from the ambush point. The hunters were no longer allowing me to lead them by the nose.“Let’s stop here. This doesn’t feel right.” One of the hunters said. He was running at the head of the team so he might have been the leader. Once he suggested that they stop running, the others listened to him. They all stopped running abruptly. The only person that looked a little sultry about stopping was the arrow guy. I guessed he didn’t enjoy how he missed me every time.I glanced back and noticed all of that in a split second. But when I turned back forward, I didn’t stop running. Instead I ran ahead and hid behind some trees and shrubs just in front. My smaller body allowed me to hide well. I spied on the hunters from my new vantage point.Even though the last t

Kerrigan had been leading us forward steadily in the forest. Suddenly he squawked and flew into the air.I didn’t need to speak bird to understand what the eagle was saying. We had arrived at our location and Oisin was right ahead. Most likely that almost meant that more hunters were just in front.I clenched my fist and sharp pain shot up my arm. I bore the pain quietly because I had inflicted it upon myself purposely.That was my punishment for being so useless.I had time to think about the hunter I killed on our journey to find Oisin.I had been avoiding thinking of him for sometime, mostly because I feared that when I searched my heart I might find some guilt there. And that guilt would be the ultimate betrayal. Because I wouldn’t just be betraying myself by feeling bad for the evil people that I hated so much, I would also be betraying my mother and even my father. The hunters had destroyed both their lives, one indirectly and the other very directly.But when I thought ab

I stopped walking and took a little break. I had been doing that a lot ever since I set out on this mission for Phoenix. This wasn’t the first time I had done something like this for him. Phoenix had been very resolute about his goals from the very first day I met him. The day he saved my life. Not just my life, but the life of my brother Oisin too. I was forever grateful for that. It meant a lot to me, especially considering where I was coming from when he ran into us. And I swore that I would follow him till I repaid those two life debts. That oath came from my heart and not the traditions of my people. My people had no traditions involving matters if life and death because to them death was only a distant dream. Yet, even in an everlasting world, I wished for life. I just hadn’t known it back then, and it too the wild nature of my brother to show me. That was why I never blamed Oisin for what he did, because to me he did nothing wrong. But none of that mattered anymo

Kerrigan dove down from the air at high speeds and reached the ground. He changed his tragectory with his a little wing adjustment and cut an arc across the air. Blood sprayed as the eagle passed by and one of the invocates screamed. I hadn't stopped moving all that while and I was able to get to the archer within the ranks of the invocates. Kerrigan's attack blinded another one of the invocates and he screamed in terror. He probably didn't even know what had hit him even after the fact. The invocates screams distracted all the rest and so they could only react slowly. That gave me the prime chance that I needed. I quickly reached the archer and raised my sword. The invocates may have been momentarily distracted by the surprise attack, but that didn't take away their training from the church. The archer spotted me coming after him with my sword. He drew his shirt sword to defend. I wasn't surprised that he had an emergency weapon lie that. It was protocol for archers t
