241 Chapter Two Hundred Forty One

Seated at the entrance to the somewhat large facility at the top of a hill, the beta alpha that posed a threat to the wolves in the reserve yawned heavily. Boredom seemed to be tearing away at him, “This sucks. That idiot Thane gets to go along with the master and face far more powerful foes while I stay behind and play the role of babysitter to some kids on a trip. And what’s with that over-confident rogue killer. She’s supposed to be here already,” the man complained.

“I had no idea you were that eager to meet her,” a feminine voice tore through the air. The man looked from his spot on the floor with a bored expression and locked eyes with Alice.

“You’re not her. I have no interest in fighting you of all people. I want to fight the person famous for the title of Rogue Killer. She must be powerful if she can get a title as scary as that one. Honestly, it gives me shivers just hearing that name. I want to meet her so much. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not a fan or something. I just want to see the look on her face when I beat her to a pulp and reverse the image she’s built this entire time,” the man began rambling, standing up from his position on the ground.

“Ugh, your delusions are disgusting to listen to,” Alice responded, crunching her nose.

“Oh yeah, that’s true,” the man responded, stretching his hands. He sniffed the air for a moment with his eyes closed, “I see there are quite a number of you. Placing a game of hide-and-seek. I would be led to assume you already know that you can’t win against me. Would you all come out and fight me at once? After all, that is what is going to happen eventually.”

“No, it’s not what will happen...”

“Then you’ll die before you have a chance even to get one hit in,” the man cut her off in a deadly serious tone for once since he’d begun running his mouth. Seeing that his point had hit home, he continued, “The lot of you are going to die here. However, I don’t want it to be boring, so come out and put up a good fight.”

“You know how to run your mouth. That’s for sure,” another voice came from the woods as Caden revealed his presence to the man. Cole came through after him, “But I don’t think you’ll be able to hold your own against all of us.”

Gallant came out from the woods as well, the four of them surrounding the rogue at once, “If the five of you had a plan of some sorts, it’s terribly awful. That’s what I’d expect from a group that has realized they don’t stand a chance against me. Let’s get this over with. I am late for some celebratory news. My victory against the Moon goddess’ chosen and the rogue king’s victory against the hunters in Lycaon.”



.....

“Rogues can be quite delusional,” Cole said through the mind link as he dashed forward. Caden mirrored his movements, the two of them having trained together, fell into sync almost immediately. They were both attacking in alternating turns before long... Gallant, astonished by the refined fighting techniques of the two werewolves took a little longer to join them against the rogue, taking a position behind the man to keep him from being pushed backwards.

Even against three enemies, the rogue seemed to be holding his own, dodging their attacks easily and weaving through them as though they left wide holes in their defence. For the last person hiding in the woods, she thought her senses were deceived when she detected how fast the man moved. She opened her eyes to see for herself and was distracted long enough to see the man dodge their attacks with unbelievable speed. He was yet to counter them... As she watched at the moment, they were moving far too slow for him and he let them humour themselves with their futile attempts at attacking him. The girl broke drew her bowstring back and tried to feel for a hole in his defences, but only got blocked by them when she realized the man was barely straining.



'

Even with everything he was doing, the man was bound to catch an arrow from her bow, regardless of how fast it was moving. The information was scary and her arm screamed from the strain of the bowstring. “Stick to the plan, Katie,” Cole’s voice came into her mind, sensing her intentions to join them.

“You’re all more pathetic than I could have anticipated,” the man said, picking them off one by one, beginning with Gallant who went sailing through the air after only one fist to the gut. The man had made it look far too easy...

The second to be flung was Caden. The beta alpha had guarded a hit to his face only to receive a powerful kick to his side. Cole tore his attention away from his momentarily fallen comrades and switched to a one-on-one fighting style to better cover his defence, “Oh, you seem more formidable compared to the rest, however, you’re still far too young and inexperien...” the man’s words stopped when Cole completely ignored his strike to the gut and struck his chin with an uppercut that sent him flying...

As the man flew into the air from the force of Cole’s attack, Katie felt an opening and felt her body move almost faster than her decision to fire. Two arrows immediately soared through the air and into the man’s shoulders. ‘Don’t kill him...’ Jeremiah had warned them.

The force of the arrows threw him further back and into the concrete wall that surrounded the cell tower. The man grunted in pain reaching for the arrow in his shoulder. Three more whistling sounds filled the air representing the three arrows that now went through the palm that was trying to reach for an arrow and his two thighs. A look of anger spread across the man’s face as he pulled his shoulder from the wall... Another arrow rang through the air. To Cole’s surprise, the man caught it with his uninjured arms.

“Oh well, I’m out of arrows now,” Katie said, rushing from the forest and straight for rogue... Right before she could reach him, he broke free of the arrows that pinned him to the wall, letting out an angry roar as he snapped the metal arrowheads,” and fell to the ground.

Katie stopped just in time to miss the arrow he tried to stab downwards with, his calculation deadly accurate. Her senses closed off the chance they had to put him down easily. “That was a good try,” the man cursed as he pulled the arrows out of his body. The wounds closed up almost as soon as the arrows were taken out.

“Yeah, it was definitely a try of some sort,” Katie replied, feeling as though their troubles were only beginning.

“How is he moving after taking that much damage?” Caden groaned as he stood up.

“Well, he’s a beta alpha. His healing speed is much faster than that of an ordinary werewolf. He probably doesn’t feel as drained as we’d like,” Katie replied.

“Hey, I’m a beta alpha too, you know,” Caden complained, “I don’t think I have as much stamina as this one is demonstrating.”

“You need more confidence, Caden,” Katie said to him. ‘Ashley, would you like to help me out here?’ Her wolf pushed forward, uniting once more with her human side. Katie’s ears grew longer and white fur came up from her head, trailing down into a tip as it got closer to the tip of her nose. The fur in her head changed the colour of her black hair and gave it a snow white at the top, leaving the rest that fell down to her back as black as night.

“As I live and breathe... It’s a half shift. Do you have a tail when you do that?” the rogue asked, stretching a bit.

“WHAT??? Of course, I don’t...” the girl responded with a yell.

“OH, then I guess it’s not complete just yet which makes you less of a threat than I’d initially thought,” the man responded.

“You’ll be singing a different tune when we’re done with you,” Katie responded with a smirk on her face. The man was about to say something smart in return when the girl was right in front of him.

‘I forget she can do that...’ he thought to himself as he sidestepped her. To his surprise, the girl pivoted on her foot, immediately adjusting to his evasion so that she was in his blindspot, ‘She’s well-trained...’

The rogue turned in a smooth arc to match her speed only to find himself in the way of another fist that was headed toward his face. The man quickly got down to avoid her attack, she was totally open... or so he thought, the girl recovered before he could think to attack her. The two of them were involved in this dance for a while, none of them managing to land a hit on the other. To the others that were watching, these two were involved in a blurry exchange that barely made the foggiest sense.

It was a stalemate that Cole couldn’t find a way to break. Just as he was about to resign from the battle, he felt his mate’s consciousness invade his, “Cole, I need your help. I can’t beat him on my own.”

“I can barely follow your movements...”

“That doesn’t really matter. You managed to put a Mighty warrior in the hospital. There is a lot you can do to help in a situation like this. You’re the one who talked of being open-minded. Earlier you managed to make an opening by utilizing that indestructibility of yours... I have an idea...”
