Spurned Luna’s Return: On Your Knees, Alpha Chase

“What happened, bro?”

“What’s the matter?” the two vampires who’d just arrived asked at the same time.

“Look!” Duke pointed at the neck shackles and chains that were lying on the floor. The prisoner was not in sight.

“How… How did she escape? Didn’t we give her the harness solution we got from that witch? That was the only bottle and now she’s escaped?” Martelio found it hard to believe, but reality was staring at him in the face.

“Damn it! We just blew up our chance to become vampire kings, all because we were careless. She slipped away right under our nose!” Brian complained, with one of his feet tapping on the floor repeatedly.

“We have to find her and teach her a lesson. She won’t have gone far. Let’s split up and search the woods for her.” Duke suggested with gritted teeth and the other two nodded before they left, closing the door of the sitting room behind them.

3 minutes later, a figure became visible in the room’s corner. Lavana panted and knelt on the floor, clutching her chest.

It wasn’t easy for her to hold her breath while using the invisibility spell.

But the good part was, those bastards had left the home to look for her. She had to take this chance to escape. She had to get to the sea at all cost for that was her way to escape from them at all.

She activated the invisibility spell again and tip-toed out of the room. She cautiously looked everywhere and walked along the passageway.

She soon arrived in the sitting room. But she had no time to appreciate the ‘good’ view before her.

They actually left without locking the door and she thanked heavens for helping her.

She opened the door and came out. She then gently closed it back before running into the woods. She didn’t know where she was going, but getting out of that area was her priority.

**********

30 minutes later.

The invisibility skill had long expired, but she was faraway though she was lost, but she felt it was better than having to deal with those undead scums.

She sat under an oak tree to rest.

She felt thirsty and hungry. She looked around and found that none of the fruits in this place were edible. Even the leaves of the shrubs 10 feet away were not.

She reclined her head against the tree and hugged her knees, closing her eyes and gulping saliva.

She didn’t know when sleep took her away.

A little girl with auburn hair tied in a messy ponytail kept running in the woods, looking behind her often. She suddenly tripped on a log and fell. She rose quickly, not caring about the pain and continued to run.

Soon, loud voices could be heard behind her.

“Stop there, you little bastard!”

“If I catch you, I’m gonna skin you alive!”

There were two middle-aged people- a male and a female, chasing after her.

In response, the little girl increased her pace, causing the pair to curse even more.

She looked behind her again and saw they were closing in on her.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Oh, no…” she kicked stone and fell to the ground.

Now the pair were standing before her with devilish eyes and scary smirks on their faces.

“Where can you run now, girl?” asked the man as he took out a syringe containing a black fluid.

“You need to sleep and look healthy when presented. Don’t make things hard for us anymore.” he said with elation.

“No… No… I don’t want to go back there. Someone help…” she threw a stone (that she found near her) at the man’s forehead and quickly got up to run forward while the woman was distracted with helping her partner in crime.

“Bitch!” the lady cursed and took chase with the man following not long after.

“Help! Someone help me!” the little one cried in despair.

Meanwhile, Lavana opened her eyes abruptly and clutched her chest, gasping for air. She just had a nightmare of being caught by the vampires and being tortured.

She wasn’t invisible and she was weak too. If they found her in this state, she was good as dead! No, she had to leave now.

With this resolution, she rose with the aid of the tree and started walking on another path, making sure she wasn’t in any open space.

2 minutes later.

She heard a pitiful cry for help and decided to hide first among the high shrubs. Who knew if it was a trick by the vampires to catch her? She had to be cautious!

Half a second later, she found the source of the cry. It was a distressed little girl (with auburn hair wearing a ragged blue gown and bare-footed) running along the path. Lavana saw her legs were injured, but she was still running and anxiously crying for help with all her might.

She could hear some angered voices nearby too.

That meant she was being chased by some people she didn’t want to be with!

Why and what did they want from the girl? Either way, she won’t let them succeed in their ill plan.

Soon, the man and woman who were chasing after the girl came into view. The man had a cut on his forehead that hadn’t properly healed and the woman had some scrapes on her skin.

“Brat, when we get you, you are finished!” the lady spat.

Lavana became more worried. That kiddo was in danger and she had to help out in some way.

She came out of the bush and composed herself. Then she launched an ice chain at the man’s feet. The ice chain successfully coiled around the man’s feet and she pulled on it, causing him to fall.

He was horror-struck when he saw what was happening. An unknown chilly chain was pulling him backward. Is this not witchcraft?

“Help! Linda, save me!” he cried.

The woman turned around and gasped in shock.

“Jaxon!” she cried and ran after her partner, who was being dragged backward by an ice chain with an unknown source.

Lavana activated the invisibility skill and sent another ice chain to the woman’s feet, causing her to fall.

“Ahhh! Help someone. Theres a ghost. Ghost!” the lady cried in terror.

Lavana let go of the ice chain and they vanished. The pair were free now, but the chilliness in their bodies combined with the terror of the unknown made them unable to stand up.

Lavana launched two fire balls at their feet. This gave them the great motivation need to run back where they came from. They had no intention of chasing that little bitch any more. They were sure that the girl they were chasing could be dead. It wasn’t worth throwing their life away.

Lavana launched two ice chains at them again. They bound their feet and they fell to the ground amongst thorns. She launched fire at them again after releasing the ice chains.

Seeing this fire coming towards them, they needed no soothsayer to tell them to run as fast as they could. They never knew they could run this fast. If possible, they wished they could borrow 10 pairs of legs more so they could get out of this cursed place in seconds.

The fireball extinguished after going some distance, but they dare not look back.

“Run for your life!” the woman cried in between pants.

“I don’t need you to tell me.” said the man as he tried to outrun her to no avail.
