Chapter 24

Cure

***

Hunter heard the loud and eerie growling sound from a distance. His eyes widened as he dashed out of the house. He almost bumped into Duncan, who was going inside the house.

“Where the hell is Leila?” Hunter inquired critically.

But based on Duncan’s expression, he seemed so oblivious as to what he was asking him.

“What do you mean? I didn’t see her. I am-”

Hunter didn’t wait for his words to finish and immediately ran to the woods where he heard the loud growl.

“Look around! Haven’t you seen Leila?” He promptly inquired about the hunters around, but they simply shook their heads.

Damn it!

‘I should have known!’ Hunter thought to himself.

His heart was beating so loudly inside him because he knew… He could identify that kind of growl. It came from a rogue.

“Damn it!” Hunter murmured as he smelled the rogues around.

He knew right there and then that rogues were truly around the area.

‘I shouldn’t have not asked her to come here. It is not yet safe for her! Damn it!’

    Chapter 27Awake***Hunter woke up that day – with his head throbbing in pain.He was in his own room – and he was half naked. He was oblivious – and he couldn’t think rationally right now. All that he could think of was the fact that his head seemed to be cracking in half.“F*cking headache…” He cursed under his breath.The light coming from the sun was already sneaking to him from his curtain. It was a cold morning – as the sun was covered with grayish clouds. It seemed like it would soon rain.He let out a deep sigh.‘What happened?’ He asked himself – bewildered, as he got up from his bed and leaned against the headboard.He held his pulsating temple – as he tried to remember what happened. He felt so weak, too. It was as if he had been into an intense training. And yet, he couldn’t even remember anything – as if his mind was too exhausted to do its job and just decided to stop working for a moment.Hunter groaned in frustration.He didn’t want this kind of thing. He hated that h

But she couldn’t utter a single word. She was still oblivious as to what was happening around her.But she tried so hard to fight her own pain.‘I can do it. I can do it…’ It was like a mantra inside her head.“Butler Henry, kindly call Hunter and Uncle Bob…” Myrtle ordered the good butler – who instantly obeyed her order.Then, she looked at her. That was the least that she could do now. She opened her mouth – as she breath using it.“Water?” She asked kindly – and all that she could do was to nod her head as an answer.Even doing that, Leila felt to be too painfully difficult.Myrtle helped her she put some wate

Her voice was now a bit creepy to hear. She let out a deep sigh.She looked at the door and saw Myrtle went inside her room.Her forehead creased as her nose suddenly crinkled.She could smell Myrt
