Who pulled the trigger?
Jaden Pov
“Who pulled the trigger?!” I roared like a wounded lion, my heart was bleeding heavily, and I could feel my rage, it was threatening to explode me.
The entire team kept quiet, and their silence enraged me the more; I pulled out a sharp knife and I placed it on Julie’s neck. She would surely chicken out, and confess.
“Tell me Kulture! Who pulled the trigger? Who shot when I haven’t permitted you to? Who is that person? Tell me!” I yelled at her furiously, and just as I suspected, she began to tremble, and in no time, she was stammering, and sweating profusely.
My other teammates were surprised by my actions, but they didn’t bother to talk. Probably because they knew that Julie and I were friends, and I was not going to hurt her.
“Jaden! Are you crazy? How dare you threaten my girl with a knife!?” Joseph barked at me, but I hissed at him.
“If your girl refuses to talk, trust me I won’t just point a gun at her, I will cut her throat off, just dare me!” I threatened him with gritting teeth.
My team members knew that I wasn’t joking, and they began to murmur, some were telling me to stop my joke, while some were saying that I should just forget about the girl!
But I refused to listen to their words, and my eyes were focused on Joseph.
“Yes, I pulled the trigger! So, what are you going to do about it?” Joseph asked with challenging shoulders, and my anger got the better part of me.
His stupid behaviors could not be overlooked, and I wanted to show him who I was. I jumped on Joseph and started to punch his face.
Redesigning and restructuring his face.
My anger reached its peak, and no one could stop me, not even my mom. I was so angry, and I released my anger and frustration on him.
“Hey, hunter, the girl is gone!” Kulture announced it to me, but I didn’t bother to attend to her because I knew that she was trying to get me off Joseph.
But when I heard my friends gasp, my attention turned to their direction, and I quickly stood up from Joseph.
I looked around the floor, and surprisingly, I could not find the girl either.
I looked around, but still, she was nowhere to be found.
“What is happening?” I asked a rhetorical question.
Luna’s Pov
Everything was going smoothly, and the man whom I suspected was their leader kept staring at me with curious eyes, and I thought he knew me from somewhere. I also looked him in the eyes, and it was an eyeball-to-eyeball competition.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
His perfume was intoxicating, and I got lost in his eyes.
After a light argument between the team members, one of the men shot me on my neck, and I fell to the floor like a lifeless soul. I thought that I was going to die. I was already about to close my eyes, but a man appeared out of nowhere. I could not see his face because my vision was blurry. But what I did notice was the way he touched my arms, and we both materialized out of the forest.
Cory’s Pov
I was in the forest, on my way to visit our vamp layout. The vampires were celebrating a kind of opening ceremony, to welcome Nebula, Combo, and Raphael in advance.
Although I wasn’t invited, I still could not miss it.
While on my way, I suddenly heard shouting, and noises emancipating from a heated quarrel.
I was alert, and I opened my eyes and ears widely. I could sense the strange presence of my daughter, but I had to assure myself several times that my daughter was at a concert, and she was probably having fun.
My phone suddenly rang, it was my informant, and I wondered why he was calling me. Nonetheless, I picked up the call.
“The…. Hunter… . hunters!” he stuttered, his breathing was unstable, he must have been running for quite a long time.
“Hunters? What do you mean? Where are you?” I asked him anxiously.
“I have gotten to a safe warehouse, and I will be alright. Also, I caught a glimpse of that girl… the one you instructed me to keep an eye on, ” he informed me, and my eyes widened immediately.
“What! My daughter? My Luna Queen!” I yelled at the top of my voice.
“Whoa… wait there…. Your what? Daughter….. But you never told me that you had a daughter, you didn’t even tell me that you have gotten married! How can you be so insincere? I thought you trusted me?” He asked too many questions at a time, but I was in no mood for questions and answers.
“Where did you see her last? ” I asked him impatiently.
“I won’t tell you because you have not answered my question! ” he replied childishly.
“My daughter must not die! If anything happens to her, I will make sure I remove your already dead heart from your chest!” I threatened him ruthlessly, and he squeaked.
“Wait! I regret informing you then! ” he replied and hissed.
“Where did you see her? ” u asked one last time, but this time around, my voice was not friendly at all.
“In the forest, the night hunters were chasing her into the forest, ” he informed me, “by the way, is she also a vampire because I kind of think she is cute, ” he said. I am sure that wherever he is, he must be smiling slyly.
I hissed and caught off the call angrily, he sure knows how to piss me off.
I quickly materialized myself out of the forest. And to my utmost surprise, I was taken to Luna’s side. She was lying on the floor, and he had a gun hole in her neck.
I carefully carried her out of the forest since the hunters were fighting among themselves.
I didn’t bother to call Ell, I teleported my Luna to a hotel room.
Luna’s Pov
When I opened my eyes, I could see my father’s face. He was beside me, and he looked really worried. I jumped up and looked around the room, this was not my room, it looked like a hotel room.
I touched the hole of my gunshot, and to my greatest surprise, it was no longer there. I was so scared, and my father was also looking at me suspiciously.
“Oh no! What is happening to my body? Where am I? Am I dead!” My heart screamed out for answers, and I nearly passed out.
