Chapter 3 Taken Advantage Of

A wolf with black fur sprinted across the field at great speed.

This continued for many minutes before he stopped running and shifted back into his human form.

He was Alpha Damon, the Alpha of Alphas and leader of the Red Moon Pack.

"Here you go Alpha" A guy stretched out a blanket to him.

It was Henry, the beta of the pack and best friend of Damon. They were pretty close and so did not give so much formalities towards each other.

"What happened?" Damon asked, taking the blanket from him and wrapping it around his naked body.

"What do you mean by what's happened?" Henry asked.

"You just won't call me Alpha while laying emphasis on it if there is nothing up"

"You know me way too much" Henry mumbled.

"What happened?" He repeated his question and picked a bottle of water, he opened the bottle and gulped down the liquid contents.

"He is dead."

"Dead? Who?" Damon dropped the bottle of water to the floor.

"The old man. The leader of the Werewolf hunters" Henry replied.

"Oh, he is gone... So soon." Damon mumbled.

"I was not expecting him to live longer" Henry remarked.

"Well, I was. But even if he is dead, those hunters are still not going to back down." Damon noted out.

"Definitely. They will make a new leader as always"

"A new leader..." Damon mumbled.

"We should try to eliminate all of these hunters once" Henry suggested.

"But we can not. They are not only here, they are spread across the world just like we are and you have been investigating for so long, have you ever seen them all meeting at a spot? No. There is no way to completely eliminate people spread across the world"

"Then what to do?"

"For now, we can only continue to suppress them? They have not launched any attacks against us these days..."

"Perhaps their leader was sick and they could not" Henry suggested.

"Probably so... If I am right, they will carry out whatever plans they have as soon as they get a new healthy leader"

"That's true" Henry affirmed.

"Spread the news to the other packs to be at alert right after the old man is buried. Once they attack, I want them all caught.... And eliminated"

"Definitely!" Henry took the orders.

"I will take my leave now" Henry turned to leave.

"Henry"

"Yes?"

"When is the burial?" Damon asked.

"In two days"

"So soon" Damon mumbled.

"That look on your face... Alpha Damon, don't tell me you are going to go to the burial"

"I should at least see the old man off. He is dead but we are still standing strong"

"I do not think that is proper, really. What if they find out who you are and attack against you?" Henry asked.

"Would Werewolf hunters be careless enough to attack me in public... They can only watch me and maybe try going after me when I leave but that is no big deal too" Damon smirked.

"Why do you tend to get your amusements from doing stuffs like this? You really have to?"

"Yes, I have to. You should leave now, get your things done" Damon turned away.

Henry stared at his retreating figure for some time before shaking his head.

"So stubborn... He's never going to listen"

The phone dropped from Sabrina's hands to the floor, causing the screen to break as it did so.

Tears filled her eyes quickly but she quickly shook it away and picked up her phone.

"I didn't hear that right. I must have misheard" She mumbled to herself, shaking her head to deny the reality.

"What... What did you just say?" She stuttered over the phone, fearing the response she was going to hear.

"You heard me right Sab, I... Leader is dead and he is going to be buried in two days. You should come home"

The news was way too shocking to Sabrina. Her father had talked to her that morning, how could he dead so suddenly.

"Did... Did father ask you to pull this trick on me so that I'll come home? Tell him it's not going to work" Sabrina still did not want to accept that it was the truth that she was being told.

"Sab! I am not joking or trying to trick you into coming home. I would never joke about the leader's death. He... He is really gone but if you do not believe me... I guess I should send a couple of pictures to you then"

"He... He really is dead? My father is really dead?" More tears clouded her eyes, clouding her vision.

"He is dead" he affirmed and Sabrina closed her eyes tightly, the tears seeping out of her eyes as she did so.

The call was ended and Sabrina let her hand drop.

Her phone beeped with a message a few seconds later and she sluggishly checked the messages, it was pictures of her dead father.

He was really dead and gone.

"Father!!" She cried out, letting all her tears out.

She had lost everyone now, her mother, her big brother, and now her dead.

Everyone was gone, she was the only left.

Tears rushed down her face.

She broke down totally, making no attempt to stop the tears from falling.

"Father" she cried more and more until the door of her office opened and Mr. Myles, her boss ran into the room.

"Sabrina, are you okay?" He asked as he walked towards the crying girl.

"I..." Sabrina tried to talk but could not because of the tears that would not stop pouring.

"Father" was the only word she could cry out.

Mr. Myles looked towards her phone and his eyes caught the picture of the dead man.

He immediately understood everything. Her father was dead.

He pulled her up and made her hug him.

"Don't cry, Sabrina" he patted her back, trying to console her.

Sabrina hugged him tightly, crying into his chest and creating a wet patch on his shirt.

"It's okay. I will be here for you" he tried his best to console even if he was not good at it.

Sabrina only stood in his embrace, all she needed was someone to hug her at the moment and Mr. Myles was just enough for that.

"Should I take you to your home? Tell me your address" Myles requested from Sabrina but she was deeply asleep.

They were both in the backseat of his car.

He stared at her pretty but sad face, he did not want to wake her up. He did not want to see her crying all over again if she woke up.

"I will just take you to my home then" he mumbled, gently caressing her hair.

He got out of the backseat of the car and got into the driver's seat.

He looked at her through the mirror and sighed softly before starting the drive to his home.

His home was not far away from the company so he got there in no time.

He alighted from the car and carried Sabrina out of the backseat of the car.

He took her into his home and headed for the guestroom with her in his arms.

He dropped her on the bed gently not to wake her up.

He tucked her into bed with care and caressed her face and hair before getting up to get himself a glass of water while loosening his tie.

He had only walked a few steps away from the bed when he heard her mumbling some things.

He turned back to her, wondering what she was mumbling to herself.

He walked back to the bed and she suddenly grabbed his hand, pulling him down to her.

Myles gasped as he nearly landed heavily on her but was able to support his weight with his arms quickly.

Myles eyes fell on her beautiful face, her closed eyes, her small, pointed nose and her slightly pouted lips.

She was too pretty even when so sad.

He raised his hands to her face and caressed her cheeks once again, this time, the caress was much more slower.

"Big brother Jake" She mumbled holding his hands tightly.

Myles did not care much about the name she called, he crashed his lips down on her lips, leading her into an intense kiss.

She tried pushing him off her but Myles held her in place firmly, not letting go of her.

It did not take long for Sabrina to calm down too, being too emotional and vulnerable at the moment.

"I am sorry, Sabrina but I can't hold back tonight"
