95 BAAll of them found themselves dumbfounded with mouth wide open as their eyes landed on Maridelle's body on the floor. Her body lies beside Nyx. Now, there are two of them who needs care and none of the men around them know exactly what to do.“Wh-What happened? I am sure we have protected them.” Sebastian got himself wrapped in sheer confusion and extreme fear. They should have been safe.“I should be the one asking you that.” His voice is irritated. “You should have felt it if Mari has been feeling something not good about her body.” He hate to admit it, but Alpha Lachlan is still not over that fact. To mark her is an option; however the certain memory about that unfaithful night is ceasing him; that memory never failed to haunt him. It would be unfair and a deceitful act if he mark her and yet, he had hidden a fraction of his past that he is afraid she will know. A past that had been a big part of both of their lives.“I did not feel something unusual. I don't know what happen
96 BABy Beta Mellow's words everyone's heart skipped a bit, racing wild, pounding itself creating an ear-splitting noise. No one moved and their eyes never left Maridelle's visage. Silence took over the spaces of the room.“N-No, no…that can't be. We are still in our disguise. We had put back Maridelle's disguise as well. It is not possible.” Alpha Lachlan shook his head the moment his Beta's words had sinked in; he worriedly clinged on the hope Angelo did not recognized Maridelle.“But what if he did recognized her?” It was not his intention to make everyone overthink, but Beta Mellow wants to get ready for every possibility that would happen any minute.Sebastian splayed his fingers over his head. “I really don't think it is not impossible. I mean if you had noticed it, Maridelle's face is plastered on the street walls and Hodor had made it known to everyone about the bounty he had put on top of her head. I think it is possible that Angelo has recognized her.” He took a long worrie
97 BAOne by one, their bodies fell limply into the cold floor. A soft thud came after and became Angelo's signal to proceed to his plan. He took a syringe and five vials, placed four of it on top of the table and took one as he pranced towards the bed.He directed his steps towards Nyx. He raises the syringe to level the range of his eyesight. “I just wonder how you are going to make me successful,” he thought to himself. “I bet after this, I will be my master's right hand. What a luck that I am the one you bumped into.” His voice is evil and every word is uttered ambitiously. The syringe neared Nyx's arm. Slowly, Angelo sniffles in the air the scent of her blood is being carried by the air to tickle his nostrils. “Delicious.” He licked the corner of his mouth as if he had a taste of her blood. He observes as Nyx's blood fills the vial.After he had taken his desired amount, he repeated the process in Maridelle. “This one got a superb aroma.” His saliva literally drools on the corne
98 BAVeins are starting to get perceptible on the surface of his skins; itchiness is felt all over his body; his nails went willingly to scratch his own skin, digging and wounding himself, leaving red scratches mark on some area. It started few minutes ago, just when after he left the room and now it has reoccurred. Angelo had already rummaged his tiny brain for a possible cause; however, there was nothing in there he could consider as a reason to blame. “Shit!” he cusses under his breath. He kept scratching the back of his neck, his arms, everywhere in his body. It seems never-ending and he can't tell why it's happening on him.“Something's wrong?” Maridelle licked her fingers. She took the glass of orange juice, drinks it while she patiently waited for an answer. “You were saying something.”Even Nyx has stopped herself from eating. “Yeah, we heard you swear. Is everything fine?” Both of the girls has felt the odd ambience. None of them got the slightest idea on why Angelo would
99 BA“Seems like we don't run out of trouble, huh?” Sebastian uttered just how someone who frequently gets himself into trouble would say it. Actually, he is certain. He gets used to it now; the smell of danger, fighting after another fight. He doesn't need more proof that what's behind the door is trouble; the feeling is so fucking familiar. “Holy crap!” He moved as fast as he could blocking the door with the couches and the bed.Friendly knocks were heard. The sound of it does not suggests any danger; however, even though their speculation is not yet confirmed, they don't need it anymore. They got enough clues to make them go in defense mode. “Hi, this is Angelo. I was wondering if I could come in? I brought medicines and foods.” His tone is friendly and as usual. Alpha Lachlan smirked and mouthed, “Confirmed.” He signalled the ladies to stay behind them. What's behind the door is harm. Housekeeping nor any employee's job in a place like this do not require to go as frequent as h
100 BA He was aghast like the sole of his feet adhered itself to where he is standing. His muscles could not move nor they are able to respond. Alpha Lachlan has found himself petrified. All he can do is to fearfully guess what kind of monster her blood is going to turn Angelo into. And the notion that the itchiness of his skin, the peeling off of his skin, and the smell that reeks from Angelo's body are early signs her blood is performing dreadful wonder wrapped his mind.“Di-Did you drink a lot?” he stammered, eyes are widened, and his body is trembling. “Not much.” Angelo continued scratching his body. Some of his skin is beneath his finger nails. “Shit! What's that smell?!” he stated, completely distracted by his own smell. His body is fastly transforming itself into a rotting corpse. And the smell and the physical attribute comparable to a corpse is getting evident on him.“I-I think we should get out of here.” Beta Mellow suggested.“Oh? Scared already? Well the two of you pas
101 BA Within a span of more than an hour, the entirety of Hilwood City was amazingly encompassed by a pungent smell. The odor is so foul that the businesses concerning food industry were immediately shut down. People are nauseated by the smell; up to this time, none could tell where it is coming from. What sure is not a single resident is able to eat nor drink. “Fuck! What's going on on this shitty place?!” As they strolled on the street, they heard a bulky man talking to his friends. All of them have their nose covered. “I had never thought Hilwood could be even become worse than it is already.” He complained as if his friends can do anything about the smell. “It happened all of the sudden,” replied by one of his friends. His movements is roleplaying a person vomiting.The conversation faded as they lengthened their distance between them. Less than an hour ago, just after they had successfully escaped the unexpected trouble they unknowingly got theirselves into, an acrid smell wa
102 BALily had stopped the car. She can’t focus on her driving with them suddenly becoming agitated, acting weird and afraid. “Wha-What’s happening?” Maridelle can’t make something out of their strange behaviour not until she surveyed the same spot that Alpha Lachlan and Sebastian’s eyes are laid upon. She gasped while her hands nervously taps Lily’s shoulder.“What?” Lily confusedly responded to her taps. All except of her has fixed their eyes on a common direction. She decided to take a look on it too. Her lips moved and has pronounced, “El Diablo.”Written on stylish lettering are the letters comprising the name of the place they were trying to escape few hours ago. And Lily did not know that. It was their fault that they did not watched where they are going. “Make a quick turn, Aunt Lily,” Maridelle commanded in a frigthened agitated voice. “Faster!”“I don’t know what’s happening, but alright. Calm down!” Lily started the engine, look backwards and steered the wheel to backtra
