Chapter 53
Theme : Satanevos
.
.
I stared at Darkness’ lifeless b©dy, in disbelief. Even though we’ve only met this demon recently, he had been the bane of our lives since Killian attacked us at Jay’s graduation.
I closed my eyes and sighed, thinking of all the warriors who had put their lives on the line to fight the rogues today. Those feral wolves have targeted innocent, and defenceless citizens – on the orders of Darkness and Nevos.
I was glad one of them have finally been gotten rid
My gaze moved onto Kobi, who currently had Nevos inhab!tt!g within him. I had another one to exterminate, and this will end today.
I couldn’t help but hiss in frustration, my forearms were pulsing from the pain. His claws did some good damage, the wounds weren’t healing as quic-k as they should. Wounds usually heal quic-kly, and don’t leave scars or marks. Of course, wounds caused by silver was an exception.
I calmly breathed in and out, all I had to do is push throu-gh the discomfort.
I rushed to Theo’s side, who was currently standing by a torn tree. He was catching his breath, his che-st heaving as he regarded his opponent with a frown. His built torso was covered in sweat, indicating how ha-rd he has had to fight.
I put my hand on his arm, letting him know I was beside him. He let his guard down for a millisecond to smile down at me, he was so focused on Kobi that he hadn’t felt me approach him.
“I’m not going to lie, I’ve been struggling.” He mind linked me with a huff. “You took care of Darkness pretty quic-kly, you’re amazing.”
“Why, thank you.” I responded with a chuckle.
“Although, we both knew Nevos was going to be the challenging one.”
Theo’s eyes narrowed at Kobi’s figure, who was also taking a little breather. “That demon is smart. Chances are that he hasn’t fought in centuries, so he let Kobi take over who has trained as a Gamma for most of his life.”
“With Kobi’s Gamma level fighting skills, combined with Nevos, an old, powerful demon’s powers; it’s a crazy f0rç£ to be reckoned with.” I retorted. “However, it’s two against one.”
He looked at me with a grin, and quic-kly gave me a pe-ck on my forehead. “You’re right.”
“It’s him, against two strong Alphas.” I continued firmly. “You’ve fought him before, right?”
“Kobi? Yeah, countless of times.”
And won , I heard him silently think.
“Then you have the advantage of knowing his tactics.” I told him. “I have the power of The
Light Gene. I used it to kill Darkness, but he was half werewolf unlike Nevos who is purely a demon. I don’t even know if he can be killed.”
That was what had been bothering me for a while.
Can I kill a demon? Can it even be killed? If I do get rid of him, can he be summoned again?
The red head suddenly charged towards us, wielding a large silver sword. I stared at his choice of weapon in disbelief, an actual fv¢king sword?
Wow…
Maybe I should get one?
My mate and I managed to jump out of his way, effortlessly landing on thick br@nches. “Any plan?” I asked throu-gh the mind link.
“I’m so hungry…” He announced at the same time.
I slowly turned to Theo, holding back my laughter. “Honestly, same.”He flu-shed at my reaction, and shook his head at himself. “Sorry, so about a plan. Silver is obviously effective because the b©dy belongs to a full werewolf. So remember, silver is lethal but the question is, if Kobi dies, does Nevos die along with him?”
I snapped my head in the red head’s direction, he had thrown a dagger my way. I jumped down from my br@nch, rolling onto the ground to break my fall. “If only Nevos was in control, we could interrogate him.”
I ran, at full speed, around Kobi just as Theo jumped down from the tree. I sm-irked as I watched his gaze fli-cker between us in confusion, not sure who to focus on. I made eye contact with Theo and tilted my head towards Kobi’s left side.
He didn’t even falter, completely un-derstanding my unspoken order, and rushed to Kobi’s left side. He had no idea what I had in mind, but completely trusted me and followed throu-gh my command.
I wielded my machetes in such a way that seemed foreign to me, but it just c@m£ naturally as I attem-pted to kill Kobi. One machete was flying towards his left shoulder, where Theo was, and the other was aiming for his back.
I purposely made sure he saw the left machete first, ma-king him dodge that one easily. I let go of the handle of that one, pas-sing it to Theo. I immediately brou-ght both hands to hold the handle of my machete, and slashed at his back before he could register my attack.
He was a second too slow in realising my sneak attack, thus resulting in his back being torn by my weapon. He let out a yell, and a hiss when the silver sliced throu-gh his flesh. I flashed a look at Theo, but he alre-ady knew what to do with the machete I handed him, he swung it at Kobi.
He aimed for his n£¢k, but Kobi had managed to raise an arm to block the hit. Unfortunately for him, that move had resulted in his arm being cut open. Blood spilled out the fresh wound as Kobi yelled and snarled from the pain.
His eyes dangerously flashed at me. “I’ll kill you!”
“Not on my sight.” Theo cut in, throwing punches at him. He threw many co-rkscre-w punches, not giving Kobi the chance to use his weapons. Annoyingly, due to the demonic power he had acquired, he was able to block all of Theo’s hits.
I could tell my mate was getting frustrated by it.
I swung my machete at Kobi’s figure, lets see how he’ll deal with two people attacking him at the same time. As if he had re-ad my mind, he managed to retreat before I could do some real damage.
His angry gaze fell on me. “You should’ve died, instead of Irene.”
I growled at him. “Give me a good reason why, traitor.”
Choosing not to reply, he lunged at me with his silver sword. Despite how heavy it looked, he held the weapon as though it weighed nothing. It cut throu-gh the air easily, the blade glinting from it’s sharpness.
I swiftly moved my b©dy, matching the fluidity of the sword. I hadn’t allowed the weapon to come close to scratching me, let alone harming me. I turned back to find that he was trying to corner me to this large tree.
I looked around for any escape route, and panicked when I couldn’t find any. I looked back to my opponent, to find him grinning in triumph. I snarled at him in response, not letting him get away with that smug sm-irk.
Damn it, did I realise too late?
His sword swung at my head, and I ba-rely managed to avoid it’s blade. I brou-ght my machete up, and started to block his attempts with it. The sound of our silver weapons filled the air, clashing at every second.
Where was Theo?
Suddenly, we were pushed ap@rt. The familiar ringing sound of my machete filled the air, as my mate swung it at Kobi’s unguarded che-st. At that angle, he couldn’t gain enough momentum or power to actually stab it into his che-st.But the surprise attack did do enough damage.
Kobi stumbled back in shock, clutching his newly wounded che-st. I didn’t hesitate in attacking him once again, taking advantage of his momentary shock.
I lunged in effort to finish him once and for all, my machete re-ady in my hand. However, the damn guy couldn’t stay still and moved just as my weapon c@m£ down. It sliced right throu-gh his shoulder, destroying his shoulder blade in the process.
He let out a strangled cry of rage and agony.
I mercilessly pushed it even dee-per to weaken him, all Theo had to do was plunge a machete into his heart. I glanced back to see him approaching us with a weapon in his hand, re-ady to end Kobi’s life. A tired smile spre-ad on my face, I finally had him within my grip.
And then, the worse case scenario happened.
He let me think I had the upper hand, but I didn’t. I looked down in horror to find a silver dagger aiming for my heart, and tried to jump out the way. He held me down firmly, wearing a crazed expression.
It all happened so quic-kly, within a split second.
He had failed to get the silver dagger in my heart, due to my thrashing.
But, he did manage to get it into my shoulder.
I, involuntarily, g@sped in shock when it pierced into my skin, cutting into my flesh. I felt so many things at once, extreme burning, unbearable pain, and coldness. The coldness of the blade was ha-rd to ignore, it was a reminder that I had a damn dagger in my b©dy.
“fv¢k!” I heard Theo yell. The mate bond wavered suddenly, from the waves of panic and fear emitting from him.
I retreated far away from Kobi, who was currently sporting a satisfied sm-irk.
My eyes wi-de-ned at the sight of a dagger sticking out of my shoulder, how had this happened? Not hesitating a second longer, I gr@bb£d the handle, gritted my teeth and pu-ll-ed it out in one go. Tears pooled up in my eyes, a reaction from the pain, and streamed down my face.
I watched the red head examine his wounds with a thoughtful expression, and started to retreat. To my surprise and disbelief, he began to run away from the scene. That little bit-ch!
Theo was rushing to be beside me, when he realised what Kobi was doing. He froze, torn between helping his mate in nee-d or st©pping Kobi from escaping. He was much closer to Kobi than I was…
“fv¢king catch him!” I screamed, watching Kobi jump from br@nch to br@nch. Theo stared at me for a second longer, before turning his back on me. I sighed in relief, glad that he knew his priorities.
Catching and killing Kobi, who was inhabited by a powerful demon like Nevos, was definitely the priority.
I stood up, still clutching my shoulder, and leaned against the tree. I wasn’t sure what to do, I was loosing blood at an alarming rate. But I preferred this over having that silver thing stuck in my shoulder and poisoning my b©dy.
I didn’t have anything to wra-p my wound with, nothing to put pressure on it and somehow decrease the blood loss. My wolf emerged suddenly, pushing herself to the front of my mind.
“You nee-d to shift.” She told me firmly.
I breathed in and out, before sprinting towards where Kobi and Theo were.
“Did you hear me?”
I ignored her, which was pretty dumb of me to do. However, my fighting ability would decrease significantly if I shifted. I didn’t want that.”You dumb $h!t, you wouldn’t bleed as much if you shifted into me!” She yelled in my mind. I cringed at how loud she was, ru-bbing my temples.
“Okay, calm down with the attitude.” I responded back.
She didn’t reply.
I finally caught up with Kobi and Theo, they were fighting by the bank of a small river. I used to love hunting in this area, my wolf had drun!kfrom this stream countless of times. It wasn’t too far from my favourite garden.
My wolf prodded my mind again, pushing herself forward.
“I said no.” I told her, giving her my answer.
“Your condition is wors£ning.” She spat back.
Holding my machete, I an-alysed the situation – figuring out when to jump in. I had to ba-re in mind that Theo might have a plan, and I can’t be quic-k to jump in whenever I want. I was slowly loosing feeling in my arm, on the same side of my shoulder wound.
“I’m not letting you hurt the b©dy I nee-d to shift into!” My wolf cried out in panic. Her overwhelming nee-d to shift was overpowering my stubbornness, my gums started to hurt – a sign of my canines growing in.
“Okay!” I gave in quic-k. “Just let me str!p, these are the only clothes I have out here.”
I hid behind the closest tree, str!pped down and alre-ady felt my wolf push forward.
“Hold up, wai-” I started to say, feeling startled.
Without warning, my bones moved and cracked into place. My white fur grew at an abnormal pace, covering almost every inch of my b©dy. I looked down to find my hands and feet were replaced with paws.
I couldn’t believe how fast I had shifted, was this a new record?
I didn’t even nee-d to do a run to prepare myself, woah. I shifted on the sp©t, just like how Theo does.
“Okay, let’s not waste time.” My wolf reminded me. I sat back, and let my wolf take full control.
She’s a warrior after all.
We ran towards the fight, jumping in when we saw a chance. We snarled viciously, gnashing our sharp canines at him.
“Down boy!” Kobi barked, scrambling to get away from my teeth.
Boy?
My wolf didn’t like that as she f0rç£fully knocked him down. It was easy to see he had weakened significantly, most likely due to the silver in his blood. At this point, he must know he’ll die from silver poisoning. I glanced at his wounds, he had too many silver caused g@shes.
I made a mental note to seek medical attention after this.
My push had him sliding into the river, immediately drenched in the cold clear water. My wolf trotted over to him, and comedically sat on him – his face immersed in the water. He struggled beneath my weight, trying to resurface to breathe.
I got off him before he pas-sed out, I wanted my mate to experience the satisfaction of killing the traitor. Theo gr@bb£d him by his shi-t, and r0ûghly pu-ll-ed him out like a we-t dog. The red head spluttered and coughed, his b©dy’s way of ma-king up for the lack of oxygen.
Theo held his sword firmly, positioning it at Kobi’s heart. He paused, ma-king sure the red head clearly un-derstood the situation. I stood by my mate, my gaze focused on the dark shadow hovering above his heart.
“Last words?”
My wolf had the urge to roll her eyes. “Just kill him alre-ady!”
Kobi’s dark gaze fell on me, taking in my wolf’s appearance. He opened his mouth to say something, but was f0rç£d to a halt when Theo had f0rç£d the silver blade into his heart. His expression displa-yed what ‘extreme shock’ would look like.Kobi was dead.
Waves of mixed feelings entered the mate bond, all of which were emitting from Theo. I glanced at his face, his face had ha-rd ened at the sight of his dead Gamma. Never did he think he would have to kill his Gamma, for betraying him and the pack. I dug my snout into his side, whimpering to calm his emotions.
His hand immediately stuck out to pet me, ma-king my wolf li-ck his hand in affection.
But then something caught my eye, there was another angry shadow. I was about to ignore it when I realised something different about it…
This one was inside Kobi. My wolf flin-ched away from it, not liking it’s aura, but I f0rç£d her to lean closer and look. The black shadow was fighting to leave his mind, what the fv¢k was that?
“Crush his head!” A distant, desperate yell rang in my ears. Theo perked up at that voice, frowning at the person who screamed it. I turned back in curiosity, feeling surprised when I saw who it was.
“Crush it before he escapes!” He yelled, his eyes wi-dening in horror and fear. He was sprinting towards us, desperate in his attempt to reach us. $h!t, that shadow is Nevos? My fur stood up on it’s ends, we couldn’t let that demon escape.
Theo’s eyes wi-de-ned in realisation, gr-abbing the corpse’s head.
“NO!”
We snapped our head in his direction, frustrated and confused by Aiden’s orders.
He was still sprinting towards us, but managed to face palm himself when he recognised me. “Why is Elisia a damn wolf? She has to get rid of Nevos!”
Taking orders from a kind of nice rogue we just met today? Weird.
I stared down at my paws, how was I supposed to crush someone’s head with these? My wolf rolled her eyes at me. “You think like a human.” She retorted, not hiding her disappointment.
Without hesitation, she wi-de-ned her jaw, lengthening her lethal canines. Realising what she was about to do, I prepared myself – concentrating on the power that was The Light Gene.
She brou-ght her mouth down on his head, and bit down ha-rd . Blood filled my mouth in no time, but we bit down ha-rder, finally cracking the skull. It was a vomit inducing scene, his jelly like br@in turned into mush. It took so much in me to not spew up my insides.
Suddenly, Nevo’s ugly, dark aura filled my s-en-ses.
“You caught me.” His vile voice echoed in my mind.
Somehow I alre-ady knew what to do. “I’m banishing you to the Oblivion, where you’ll never get a whiff of the sweet scent of worldly existence. You can never be summoned, ever. I bestow upon you a lifetime of powerlessness, and darkness – a place where you are nothing.” I told him, the words easily rolling off my ton-gue.
“The rogue’s vice leader, Aiden, was a traitor this whole time?” He murmured. “A double agent?”
I looked up at Aiden who had finally reached us. He was staring down at me with wi-de eyes, concern etching his face. He was in no way a double agent, the guy just happened to change sides.
I had a lot of questions for him…
“By the power of The Light, I banish you, Satanevos, to the Oblivion.” I declared, feeling the immense power build within me. Electrifying, endless bounds of pure energy rushed out from me, forcing the demon from out my head.
He let out an angry yell before he was f0rç£fully r!pp£daway from my mind. I shuddered as I felt his pres£nce leave me.
I hadn’t realised Theo and Aiden were calling my name, nervous because I was unresponsive. I looked up at them and gave them a wolfy smile.
“Hell yeah! You did it?” Aiden exclaimed, wra-pping his arms around me. My wolf growled in a warning tone, ma-king him jump back in surprise.
“St©p that, he’s a cool guy.” I told her. Even Theo didn’t seem bothered by the rogue tou-ching me as he held out a hand to Aiden.
“Thank you.” He said gratefully, when Aiden took it.
He sighed in relief, looking at his feet. “Not a problem man.”
He glanced at me, took off his jacket and held it out for me to take. “The last time I saw you, you were in a torn black dress. This should be long enough for you to wear until you can get changed.” He explained.
I gave him one last look, before taking it in my teeth and trotting away.
“Thank you.” I thanked my wolf. “I’ll let you out to hunt whenever I can.”
“We’ve grown so much, haven’t we?” She asked wistfully.
“We have…”
I shifted behind a tree, once again celebr@ting over the fact that it only took a little over a second. I put on his coat, which looked big on me, Zi-pped it up and stepped out. I ru-bbe-d my temples and sighed; having a demon that strong inhabit my mind for just a amount short time, had given me a headache.
I approached Theo and Aiden with a smile on my face. “Nevos is gone, and can never be summoned again.”
My mate sagged in relief, opening his arms for me for a hvg. I walked straight into them, relishing in his comforting t©uçh. He brou-ght hisl-ips down and trailed them along my n£¢k, humming in contentment.
“You had me worried for a second there.” Aiden spoke up, his happy grin wi-dening. “If you hadn’t acted quic-k, he would’ve wondered around until he found another dark soul to take over.”
He shivered violently. “And then he would’ve hunted me down and killed me for being a traitor.”
I stepped out of my mate’s embr@ce, and held my hand out to him. “Thank you so much.”
He took it and shook it seriously. “plea-sure doing business with you.”
“But we didn’t do any business…” I deadpanned.
“Look, it seemed perfect to say it then, so I did.” He retorted, shrugging. He turned to Theo and said, “It takes a lot of strength and courage to kill someone who was once your trusted friend, I commend you.”
Theo gave him a curt nod in response.
“Okay! Let’s go back, shi-tless guy.” Aiden said, patting his shoulder. Not looking back, he called out, “And you too, Female Alpha.”
“How come I get the weird nickname?” Theo muttered un-der his voice. Nonetheless, he put his arm around me, accidently brushing against my shoulder wound.
I hissed in pain, ma-king him move his arm away in alarm. He pu-ll-ed the Zi-pper of the coat down, and pu-ll-ed it back to see the condition of my shoulder. I looked at him the entire time, fighting back a blus-h because my cle-avagewas on show.
His gaze moved away from my shoulder and to my cleavage, darkening when he realised I was completely n-ked un-der the jacket. He li-cked hisl-ips slowly before Zi-pping it back up.
He glanced at my forearms, the g@shes were covered up by the sleeves, before snaking an arm around my w@!st.
“Don’t worry. We’ll get that sorted, love.”
