novelWRECK HAVOC
| ← Ch.0545 | Ch.0547 → |
Hope could see how the silver had hurt him. Under his bloody fur, she could see the burned scars littered on the surface of his fur. It looked awfully painful, just like the rest of his wounds. Even Hope could smell the scent of metal in the air.
Yet, the beast calmed down for only a minute before he started to bang the cage again.
"No, stop!" Hope desperately stretched out her arms to touch him, to calm him, but the beast didn't stop.
The cage rattled loudly when the beast whacked its head against the metal bars, as if this was only some ordinary metal bars and not made of silver that could hurt him whenever he touched them.
There were more hunters who came forward to help those eight people, who were holding the ropes to keep the cage steady, but in the end, it was just another futile attempt to stop the beast.
The cage was swayed heavily by the force of everything that the beast did.
"Watch out!" the man from before, who was being asked by Hope to open the cage, rushed towards her and pulled the girl away before the cage was being knocked down and hit the ground hardly.
Dust were everywhere when the big cage cracked, it only needed a last blow for the beast to break and freed himself while the hunters were watching in horror at what the beast was more than capable to do.
Was that even possible that the silver bars couldn't hold him back!?
"Get ready!!!" the leader of the hunter roared his command and the men around him grabbed their weapons once again. Ready for another battle.
"No, no, no... not again..." Hope mumbled while shaking her head, she felt terrible as her legs were trembling uncontrollably.
The scene that unfolded before her eyes was like another nightmare of the day... maybe Hope just slept for four or five hours now, since the sun just started to fall on the horizon and casted their shadow longer.
However, bathing under the twilight, only set off her fear and uneasiness about the dreadful thing that might happen next.
It was like a slow motion movie when the beast wrecked havoc inside the cracked silver cage that confined him.
The moment it freed itself, the beast didn't think for another second before he lunged his body to the man near Hope and bit off his head fiercely.
Another blood spurted from the headless body onto Hope's clothes. Now, the girl was confused, which one she feared the most.
Whether she feared the hunters would hurt the beast or the beast would kill all of them. Either way, she didn't want to know the result as she felt her stomach churned uncomfortably.
"Hope! Don't look!"
From afar Hope could hear someone was calling her name. Ian? Or... Ethan? In normal situation she would be able to distinguish their voices, but there was nothing normal about the situation now.
"HOPE! LOOK AT HERE!" Ethan shouted again when he watched Hope's whole body was trembling, she didn't even dare to move a finger.
The sound of those hunter met the end of their lives was something not everyone could handle, even Ian was lost for words.
The older twin didn't want to see what he saw, but he was not able to look away either, as if there was a strong force that made him to comply to witness all of these horrible things.
Thankfully, Ethan slapped his face so hard until his tears stung his eyes, "Don't look you idiot!" Ethan pushed his brother's head down, so he could only stare at Lana's sleeping face. The female werewolf still had not regained her conscious yet.
"Hope! Look at me!" Ethan resumed calling for the girl, which sitting on the ground, trembling and on the verge of mental breakdown.
"HOPE!" Ethan snapped at her and finally got her attention as she startled and turned her head toward him."Look at me and cover your ears, " he instructed."Look at me and cover your ears." He repeated his words when Hope just stared at him blankly.
The sound of bone cracking and earth-shattering wailed in agony, slowly faded when Hope raised both of her hands and pressed her palms against her ears to prevent any sounds to come into her mind.
Overall, there were not only sixteen hunters there, there were more of them. Probably, during the fight earlier, some of them engaged the battle with the three werewolves and the witch and the rest took care of Kace.
But, now when the beast had severely injured and had to fight the number of hunters tripled from the last time he fought, the beast could manage.
Added that to the spear made of silver and coated with poison that still stuck on his back. Where did he get this strength from? Kace's condition became very confusing.
"Good, keep looking at me, " Ethan cooed at her, as he stared into her eyes intently. He didn't wish to see the bloody scene too. This was too much for him. The battle last longer than they thought and it felt longer than it should be.
When the sound of it had decreased, the beast leap in front of Hope and he was bloodier than ever. He stalked towards her as his canines in full display.
Hope gulped down hardly, she felt there was a big rock was shoved down her throat. Her hands, which had grown numb, fell on the side of her body while their eyes met each other. Red to black.
"Ka... ce..." Hope called his name throatily.
The beast's body was trembling and from his fur, blood was dripping, creating traces on the ground as he approached his mate.
Tears escaped from Hope's eyes, she didn't know what this tears for, but the sight of the beast made her heart ached painfully.
Despite her fear earlier and the fact there were dozens of dead body strewed behind her back, who were the victims of the beast's brutalism, Hope stretched out her arms shakily and hugged the beast's neck when he was close enough to her.
