The Were CEO’s Secret

Chapter Forty-Four – Took Revenge.

“The name’s Cherry. Nice to meet you.”

Stephanie advanced slowly to the girl, clenching her fists but Nathan held her back. “Calm down, Stephanie. Where do you know her?”

“She’s the little bitch who kidnapped Macy at the hospital and sent me to that pitiful state! Did you break a leg? I’d breaks the other one!”

Nathan pulled Stephanie back before she harmed the girl. He glared at the girl as bitterness was filling his own heart.

She was the wolfess from Johnson’s pack that dared hurt Stephanie. He sensed she was no ordinary wolf, despite being in a hospital.

“You were a lousy older sister. And your little sister was too friendly. Also, you annoyed my cousin. Don’t blame me.” Cherry flipped her hair.

“Cousin?” Nathan smirked. “Good, we’ve found Johnson’s weakness. He has a cousin.”

Cherry frowned. “You wouldn’t dare! Do you think I’m powerless!”

“Well, I don’t give a damn, do I?” Stephanie stormed to her and pulled her hair.

Nathan let her. The wolfess wasn’t seeing that she was technically in a close in ward with someone she offended. Some body could easily get away with killing her.

There were no cameras, and if they were, there’s also a CEO who could easily get the best lawyers in case she filed a case.

Cherry’s eyes glowed yellow, emitting an aura. “Release me or I’d claw your hands off!”

Stephanie yanked her hair harder, not affected by the aura at all. “You should be…” she pulled it more harder. “… apologizing to me.”

Cherry groaned. She shook her head from Stephanie’s hold but got slapped by her.

Nathan hugged Stephanie from behind, calming her down and taking her hands down. She let go of Cherry’s hair.

“My cousin would avenge me for everything y’all have done! Especially you, Nathan! I’d drive a knife through your leg like you did mine!” Cherry yelled, as Nathan pulled Stephanie out.

He paused. “Wait, what?” he pointed himself. “I drove a knife through your leg? Where?”

Stephanie scoffed. “Whoever did that to you deserves a handshake, bitch!”

Cherry ignored Stephanie’s comment and stared at Nathan. She could hear if he was lying or not, and he wasn’t lying. “You aren’t that man?”

Nathan nodded. “Yeah, and I know I am one of your enemies but why would you think I’d be the one to do this to you?” He folded his arms.

Cherry shrugged. “I’d kidnapped her younger sister and my brother said your speed force and this man’s speed force match.”

Stephanie glanced at him and the girl. What did she mean by speed force? Did she learn of his identity? She leaned close to Nathan.

“She knows your secret?” she whispered.

Nathan whispered back. “No, she’s speculating, don’t give it away.”

Stephanie made a thumps up sign and faced Cherry. “Okay, so I just asked him if injuries at the leg affects the brain and he said ‘no’ so I wonder what you mean by speed force?”

Cherry chuckled. “Yeah, treat me like a fool…”

“My pleasure.” Stephanie hurriedly replied.

“Even if you weren’t the man in black suit, chic tuxedo jacket, an impenetrable mask and trying to kill me, I still know you’re a supernatural. And I’d find more soon. So, kindly get the hell out of my ward if you’re done harassing me!”

“I’m not yet. Want more!” Stephanie advanced to her again but Nathan held her hands and dragged her from the room.

Cherry smirked, she’d get her again soon.

“Just take me home!” Stephanie stormed to the car. “I regret ever meeting that girl. And I’m unable to report her to the police cos you’re leaving it pack to pack. What about my own fight, huh?”

“Stephanie, you’re just angry. Trust me, she’d beat you again like she did the other day.” Stephanie glared at him but he continued. “But you can cause her minor pain and settle with that, alright?”

He handed her a small foiled bag. “This is wolfsbane. Blow it around her and she’d be nauseated for a long time. Easy.”

Stephanie snatched the bag and walked back to the ward. Nathan stood close but not in, so the wolfsbane won’t knock him out.

“Back so soon?” Cherry smirked, seeing Stephanie. Her nose wrinkled when she smelt the foreign substance. “Take it away. I shouldn’t be breathing that thing.”

Stephanie sneered coming closer, unwrapping it. “Yes, you should be feeling it.” She rubbed it on Cherry’s arm and over her hanging leg.

She finally blew it on her and dusted her hands. “Happy recovery, bitch!”

Cherry felt like acid was poured on her, she winced as it caused reddish brown burns on her skin. “I’d get you!”

“And I’d be restocking myself with wolfsbane.” Stephanie slammed her door closed.

Nathan blinked at her.

“What?” she shrugged. “I took my revenge.”

He shook her head. “No, you were being a total wicked, heartless, ruthless… badass. That’s so cool. I mean, yeah, I know wolfsbane hurt but she deserved it.”

“Thank you!” Stephanie flipped her hair and they continued on the way.

“So who do you think is the man who stabbed her? Wearing a tuxedo jacket, black clothes, and mask? Sounds like a costume.”

Nathan’s fingers snapped.

Stephanie hurriedly answered. “The man who hit my dad that year. He was wearing that. Do you think he’s after him now?”

Nathan shook his head. “Possibly not. Actually that costume, uniform rather, is of Tux Ninjas. I thought they disbanded.”

Stephanie frowned. “Are they bad or good?”

Nathan thought. “They aren’t after us, at least.”

The man he met didn’t mean harm to him or Stephanie… yet. And if they were hunting Johnson’s cousin, for whatever reason, then they must be… good.

Was this what Keon meant as the man was a balance? Wasn’t on his side or against him? Like the man was just a new entity to create chaos?

“You know I’m right in you. You can just ask me if it’s what I meant.” Keon said in his head.

Nathan rolled his eyes and started the car.

(Johnson’s Mansion)

A board with pictures of different men, marker inks and written notes pasted on it, stood in front of Johnson.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The file on his laptop downloaded and he clicked on it. It was a document from a spy. The various locations of Nathan’s doctor.

“Lead Warrior, right on time.” He grinned, seeing the warrior walk into the room.

He copied the file to a flash drive. “Here are the many addresses of the doctor. Find the right one. Send it to me, I’d like to go myself.”

The warrior casually rubbed his hair, while retrieving the flash drive. Johnson sighed on seeing his newly shaved hair.

“Look, you have to move on after your brother’s death. Stop shaving your head.” He groaned.

“I’m sorry, Alpha, but I’m not stopping till I get revenge for him.” The lead warrior said and left.

Johnson wasn’t sure if his revenge was on Alpha Luciana for killing him or at him, for sending him there to die.

He exhaled and made sure the lead warrior was gone before opening a hidden door and pushing the board through a it.

He pressed a button and a mannequin wearing a suit appeared. The suit had a hard texture, tuxedo jacket and made of black. It had a black bat mask to it.

Johnson patted it. “This is going to be fun.”
