Untamed: The Alpha

103 A LONG NIGHT (4)

She needed to break the glass and then jump from the second floor, hm, sounded easy...

Blue frowned, she didn’t like the idea, but as she tried to think of something else, she noticed that Jasmine was already standing in front of her with a gun in her hand, as she bent down her body to look under the table.

That was the time when Blue shifted into her white beast and clawed her face, but Jasmine dodged her sudden attack swiftly, as if she had anticipated it and then reached for her gun.

However, the white wolf had bitten down her hand before she could do that, making her drop the gun before kicking it away from Jasmine.

Unfortunately, the gun was not the only weapon that Jasmine possessed, she had other weapons that were tucked inside her black attire and it was easy enough to reach for them.

Jasmine took a knife from her ankle and swung it toward the white wolf, but she had jumped from her position and then thrown all of her weight toward the window glass.

Blue had expected it would break and she could escape from this room, but apparently the glass was very thick and she couldn’t manage to break it.

Apparently, Chaos had designed this manor with glass thick enough until they could hold a bullet. And it was not very advantageous at a time like this.

The white wolf whimpered when she felt her body collide with the hard glass, she thought she had broken her bones.

.....

However, it was not the time to feel the pain, as she needed to move as fast as she could to escape from this crazy woman.

Ignoring the pain, Blue moved away from her position, as Jasmine retrieved her gun and started firing at her. She hurled the knife in her hand and struck a toppled over shelf, just a few inches away from the white beast’s head.

Blue knew this library like the back of her hand, because she often came here when she thought she would find Chaos.

Therefore, she knew there was a small gap under the second door that was big enough for her small beast form to slide under it.

She dashed toward that spot and found it just in time before Jasmine came to her.

With her human speed, there was no way she could outrun a wolf, but her bullet could. She fired rapidly, but the wolf ran in a zigzag path that made it difficult for her bullets to meet their aim, especially with all the mess that she had created.

It was hard to run on top of thousands of books on the ground and bookshelves that had been broken, yet it was not a problem for the wolf, she could leap from one place to another just fine.

And when Blue saw the gap still open and all she could do was to escape from there, the wolf threw her body at the bookshelf that was still standing, halting Jasmine for a moment, buying her enough time to run out from this library through the gap safely.

The white wolf slid from the gap gracefully and now she was out of the library room, as the sound of gunshots ringing continued in her background.

The fight was not over yet.

But then, Blue picked another sound in the distance... growls and roars? A beast? No, there were more than just two...

What was that? It sounded like the people were fighting other enemies, instead of fighting against each other.

And as if answering Blue’s question, in front of her, Blue could see a vampire...

Blue knew it immediately as she could smell their faulty scent.

As if the white wolf’s problem had not yet been enough, from behind her, Jasmine came out of the library, with a gun in her hand and a vicious smile on her lips.

====================

Sol fought Gael, as he used the same poison that Lise had given him, but this time he threw the powder right in front of his face.

However, Gael easily nullified his attack with a flick of his wrist, his eyes glared intently at Sol.

If it was not because the thought of Lise would hate him even more, if he killed her childhood friend, Sol would have died by now.

He wanted to make everything right for Lise, thus he couldn’t start it by killing her best friend, at least this was the only thing that he could do for now.

Sparing Sol’s life was the best thing he could do for her, since every inch of his body screamed at him to shred this man into a thousand pieces.

No matter how prepared he was, he was still a hundred steps behind to be able to subdue a supernatural creature like Gael, though he was still injured because of the poison Lise gave him.

“Don’t come to find me,” Gael said viciously, he held Sol’s neck tightly, ignoring his attempt to stab him with the dagger in his hand.

Sol widened his eyes when he couldn’t even penetrate his skin, as if it was made of steel.

“Don’t try to find her again.”

“She will die if she is with you. The world has changed, now your existence has been known and your kind is the enemy of humans.” Sol was struggling, as Gael raised his hand and he lost his footing. “Do you think once they find you, they will spare her life?!” he yelled at him.

It was true, with how the world changed now and the people saw the supernatural creature as an enemy, they wouldn’t spare anyone’s life that were involved with them.

Just like those guards, who died in this building, they didn’t hesitate to kill them, even though they were humans as well.

“Now can you see?” Sol gritted his teeth, he needed to make him understand this. “You will be the one who killed her.”

“NONSENSE!” Gael threw Sol across the room, as his body hit the wall harshly and made a loud noise, cracking bones.
