Chapter 66 Down the mountain
Chapter Sixty-Six – Down the Mountain.
The leather suit was closely knitted to her body, revealing all her curves. It was a dark color and they always looked sexy on her.
Alpha Luciana paced around and doing so, made her hips sway, it looked more alluring inside the suit.
The human man couldn’t keep his eyes off her. She was reading the map and wasn’t noticing him. He licked his lips.
Then a knife came to his neck, and his breathing hitched. He blinked and shot his head up at his killer.
“Look respectfully or I’d cut you.” Nathan seethed, before dropping the knife on the man. He nodded frantically and moved away from him.
Luciana smiled, eyes till on the map, she had noticed the man’s greedy stares but it was never a crime to appreciate something good.
“Don’t be rude little brother.” She replaced the map in it’s holder. She glanced at Nathan, he wore the same icy look since he arrived.
“Is Stephanie okay?” she asked wondering if she was the reason for the mood.
Nathan shut his eyes tightly on hearing her name, he slowly opened them. “She got shot. But she’d be fine.”
Luciana nodded. That could be why he was in a bad mood. She faced the man. “Sir, for your map. How much would you sell it to me?”
The man grinned. “Price? Hmm, maybe some time with you, Alpha. Not very hard to do, is it?” he asked, shamelessly.
Nathan clenched his fists and advanced to him. “Your mouth keeps running, doesn’t it?” his eyes flashed blue but he hurriedly suppressed it before anyone saw it.
Luciana wore a fake smile. “Sir, let’s be nice, shall we?” she turned away from him. “For your own sake.” She muttered under her breath.
She opened a drawer and brought out a gold necklace, with some diamond stones. “How about this for the map?”
The man rose from his chair. He rubbed his hands greedily. “Agreed.” He didn’t even know what to use the map for.
It was just a family heirloom that he never knew belonged to the werewolves, he’d always wanted to get rid of the strange map, and for gold and diamonds, it was a really good bargain for him.
The Alpha threw the necklace at him and he caught it with both hands.
“I believe our business is done, Alpha?”
She nodded. “Find your way out. Thank you.” When the man was gone, she rolled her eyes. “They call you Alpha but still speak shamelessly.”
Nathan exhaled, sitting on the chair again.
Luciana leaned besides him. “You have to be patient with people. I learnt to be patient with humans, for your sake.” She smirked.
Her brother flashed a smile before looking away. He always wondered her reaction to knowing he wasn’t human. He knew it won’t be good.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Garcia ran into the room with motorcycle keys. “I’m back. I’m ready to go to the Elders. My brother agreed to give me his motorcycle.”
Nathan tilted his head. That was the first time he heard of her brother. Or wait, he knew she had a brother just that he never saw him around.
Luciana shrugged. “Motorcycles are faster. And less expensive incase you need to detonate it to kill people.” She sighed.
Garcia smirked and collected the map from her. “See you by tomorrow then.” She turned to Nathan. “Boss, can I have a day off tomorrow?”
Nathan forced a smile. “I’d give you two.” The Alpha smiled at them and left the room. Garcia winked at Nathan, and followed the Alpha out.
The road to the mountains were rocky and Garcia was almost sure that her backup, who was to protect her, had fallen down by now.
She kept on pushing the motorcycle up the mountain. She had thought of leaving it somewhere but what if the road evens out?
She wasn’t used to this torture but she could handle it, she had offered to go.
It’s her job as the Delta to help since Cole was training the warriors. And as the daughter of an Alpha, there should be nothing she couldn’t do.
As she got closer to some tree stumps, her wolf hearing picked up some ruffling and chattering in the trees ahead. Someone was waiting for her. She came closer and realized it wasn’t one.
She smirked. Johnson was moving faster than she thought. Was he planning to ambush her? To stop her from getting to the elders? “Funny.”
It was right that he should. If he could. The Elders were hibernating atop the mountains. They’ve been for year in their wolf form.
Their strength would be insurmountable and that was what she needed. The Alpha’s father would be returning soon with the hunters.
Johnson would dread the day he thought of stealing from her Alpha and never apologizing. It would be his greatest mistake. “Hello, all.”
She could already see movement in the trees. She dropped her brother’s motorcycle, resting it on a tree.
“If you’re here to kill me, come out, I have a place to be.”
From the corner of her eyes, she noticed the arrow shot at her and she missed it by bending. “Okay, archers. Great.” She hated arrows.
She charged at the moving shrubs and grabbed the neck of a female warrior. Another arrow came towards her and she dragged her victim in front of her, making her take the shot.
Three females jumped from a tree, and swung knives, tied in ropes, towards her. Garcia remembered the Mashi that was used on her Alpha.
“Not this time, bitches.” She jumped on a tree and used her legs to kick the girls’ head’s together. Only one fell unconscious.
She grabbed her knife and had a confrontation with the other two. She successfully flung the knives at them, paralyzing them on the ground.
She smirked. And Avery said she didn’t have combat skills. She listened again to know if the hunters had run off.
She followed the sound of a voice. She jumped into the middle of ten females, packing arrows. “Oh boy.” She shouldn’t have barged in.
They targeted their arrows on her immediately. She held unto the knife, waiting for their strike. A tall man, wearing a black robe, strolled in front of the archers. “Hello, Garcia.”
Garcia frowned. Who was the freak who knew her name? Maybe a fan of hers? He had his head clean shaven and had a war face.
“Who the hell are you?”
He grinned. It seemed he didn’t do that often as his face contorted weirdly when he did. “Let’s just say I’m the one who gave your Alpha a hole in her stomach.” He rubbed his hands.
Garcia held unto the knife tightly. He was Johnson’s lead warrior. “Mind if I give you one in yours…?” she glanced at the warriors who were waiting for his orders. “… alone.”
The man smirked and signaled for the archers to stand down. “Okay, it will be my pleasure to kill my would-have-been Luna.”
Garcia rolled her hands and charged a him. He easily blocked all her attacks on him, it almost frustrated her.
She flung the sword at him as well as her leg. He could only dodge one and staggered back after getting kicked.
He had been defending since, he brought out two of his knives to attack.
Throwing one to Garcia she ran to it, catching it with one hand before throwing the one on her other hand at him.
It glazed over his shoulders but was a bruise.
“Ahh, smart. Indeed you are an Alpha’s child.” The man smirked, looking over his injury.
Garcia moved to the box of arrows, kicked it down the mountain, making the archers gasp. “Who else wants to go down the mountain?”
The man nodded, satisfactorily. “Maybe you.”
Pulling out two knives from each of his shoes. He flung them at Garcia before she could dodge anyone. She fell down to avert it but it came down with her, but landed on a book.
Her panting increased. Who’s book was this?
In one swoop, an unknown figure swooped down and grabbed the other man, jumping down the mountain.
Garcia ran to the edge. Was that suicide? Who was that who saved her?
She stared at the archers who were both scared and tensed, holding only one arrow in their bow. “Again, who else wants to go down the mountain?” her claws flew out.
