The She-Devil And Her Alphas

Chapter 74 - Seventy - Four : "It's Her "

" So far the virus doesn't seem to affect the humans, werewolves only " Ryan explained as he went through the daily report while Daniel sat staring at him with his recent poker face.

" This is obviously a targeted massacre " Daniel muttered grimly.

In just a few days, he has lost over a hundred plus of his people and still counting . The silver pack which previously could boost of having a huge population has been depleted to a shocking number .

"How long till the antidote is ready?" Daniel asked him anxiously.

Ryan replied "Amala has been giving test shots which has being showing positive results, so I think it should be ready in a day or two.

"Alright " Daniel sighed, rubbing his face with his palms.

"I think you should take a rest, you look like shit " Ryan glanced at his friend, noticing how?haggard and worn he appeared.

Daniel was pale, red-rimmed eyes , dark circles and sunken cheeks betrayed his lack of sleep.

His rich blonde hair , although matted and unkempt, had grown to his neck while his features were shaded by two days or three of stubble.

Ryan knew Daniel hadn't had the chance to rest recently, he's being running helter scatter settling internal and external disputes the virus has caused with other packs while restraining the spread of the virus in his own domain.

The guy was stressed beyond words.

Daniel raked his hand through his now longer hair " I can't close my eyes peacefully without nightmares assaulting me " He confessed with a heavy heart

Ryan sighed, he had watched Daniel stand helplessly and witness the deaths of so many people dear to him.

"But don't worry, I'll try to take a nap and hope I don't see bloody hands trying to reach for me in my sleep " He teased but it wasn't funny to Ryan at all.

"That is not funny " Ryan said and would've scold him further if he didn't sense a sudden shift in his countenance.

"What's wrong? " Ryan asked worriedly.

There was a pained expression on Daniel's face while he was grabbing a certain section of his chest.

"It's her " Daniel answered curtly but Ryan knew who he was referring to. The only person that could make their alpha react this way was his one and only mate.

He just hoped she wasn't dieing, again.

"What's wrong with her? " Ryan asked with concern, he knew for the alpha to experience this, he must have tapped into their matebond.

"She is in pain " Daniel answered anguishly, and before Ryan could question him further, he had zoomed off.

"And here we go again " Ryan smacked his forehead as the door snapped shut leaving a gust of wind in its wake .

Daniel ran like the devil was on his heels, though she was kilometres away from him but he persisted and drew strength from his shifter side.

Thankfully it was late at night so there was wasn't anyone available to witness him running speedily like the Flash.

He could have transformed into his wolf side but he couldn't arrive before her naked since his clothes would be ruined in the process.

The thought of her being in danger pushed him into covering an hour distance in fifteen minutes.

He knew it was definitely strange when the bond activated for the first time without his knowledge and so he tapped into it, only to feel her anger and distress.

Thankfully, the link was strong so he was able to track her down until a screeching sound suddenly hit his auditory system so hard he had to shield his ears with his hands, which unfortunately didn't help at all.

It was no secret that werewolves possess enhanced hearing, so the scream was amplified in his case.

Though overwhelmed by the deafening noise, he still pressed forward and entered the mansion where people were running out and scampering for safety.

Aimdst the pandemonium, he still searched around for his mate but when he couldn't find her after a long time, he decided to follow where he felt her the most.

Trusting and following his instinct, he found himself in the basement where the scream was the loudest and shockingly - his mate was the one wailing like a banshee.

Disoriented and almost rendered unconscious, he tried to approach her but was pushed back as if some sort of barrier was repelling him .

But Daniel wasn't stupid, he knew if he let her continue this mad fit, she would level down the whole building with her scream and injure - possibly kill innocent souls and herself in the process.

There were already two unknown girls lieing unconscious on the basement floor with bleeding ears .

Though confused at what's going on, he scrupulously summarized it was a case of bullying, judging from the binds on his mate's hands and legs.

He figured out that the distress must have caused her powers to violently manifest.

Eventhough he was puzzled on how she gained such destructive power, he waved the thoughts aside and instead, focused on how to bring down the force field.

Determinedly, Daniel put his hands and pressed against the barrier once again, teeth gritting , muscles bulging, bleeding from the eyes, nose and ears until he push through the force field and it collapsed.

Still engaged in her enraged fit, Daniel hit her at the back of the head with a tremendous concussive force that knocked her out cold.

Wiping away the blood from his eye with the crook of his elbow, he squat down and started to free the girl when he frowned suddenly.

He touched the chains as if trying to imprint its feel in his head. His expression shifted, this wasn't an ordinary chain but a silver one designed to incapacitate werewolves.

Unlike what was depicted in movies and novels, silver doesn't burn them upon contact but weakens them when exposed to it for long

Unfortunately, it was most lethal to them when inside their body, so a silver bullet through the heart definitely ends them.

He turned to stare at the unconscious girls with a lot of questions running amok in his head.

How did they? .... why did.... ?

Infact there was no time for this, he had a feeling things weren't as simple as he thought. So he quickly unchained her and scooped her into his arms.

Looking around the ruins, he shook his head.

This would definitely make the headlines.
