novelYou Just Killed Your Brother
| ← Ch.113 | Ch.115 → |
" Ouch... aww, come-on man, that hurts " Ben complained as Asher dragged him out of the car, pulling him on the ear.
"Why are you complaining, I thought this ear of yours isn't meant for listening but for decoration instead? " Asher chided, a mirthless smirk plastered on his face.
"Prince of Darkness " Ben said and got on his knees, rubbing his palm together in a pleading gesture " Don't kill me yet, I swear I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your discussion. I was just following my goddess footsteps " Dan pleaded for his life with a straight face.
Asher's mouth twitched, sometimes this boy could be as annoying as hell. He seem to have a long life cause no matter what dire situation he finds himself in, he seem to know how to talk his way out of it.
"I swear by the brotherhood " Ben promised Asher and raised his right hand while his left one rested on his chest "To always protect my goddess Lia and never expose any secret or truth that would harm her in anyway whatsoever "
Asher stared at the idiot exasperated " What brotherhood are you even talking about? "
Ben stood to his feet, giving Asher at lest a five meters space. The guy was unpredictable, who knows what he has in-store for him this time, since he decided to take him to his place.
He replied cautiously " The brotherhood that was established between you and I, the moment I decided to be your mate's sidekick "
Asher shot him a dirty look while debating between running him over with his car and disguising it as an accident or just handing the idiot over to Dan as lunch.
Ben swallowed " By the way, why are we here? You're not probably about to drain me dry and bury me here just because I heard something I wasn't supposed to hear, right? "
Asher chuckled, this boy was funny. Giving him several ideas on how to dispose of him.
"What do you think? " Asher asked, purposely flashing his sharp canines at the idiot who took another step back.
"Idiot " Asher mumbled and shook his head before deciding to tell the truth to the boy already scared out of his wits.
"I'm not here to have you as lunch Ben, but since you've dedicated your life to protecting your goddess life, I'll have to show you then who you have to protect her from? " He explained walking to the entrance while Ben trailed behind.
"Are you talking about Raphael? "
Asher turned to face him surprised " How did you - "
" Yelp, Dan briefed us over lunch " Ben proudly filled him in.
" Good, then you already know why you should keep her away from him at all cost " He inquired, staring the kid in the eyes.
"Yeah, So he doesn't steal Lia from -"
Asher's expression darkened
"I mean, so he doesn't harm Lia" Ben rephrased his words in a twinkle of an eye but Asher's blazing gaze still didn't leave him, so he added " That was a slip of tongue "
After a long hard stare, Asher ignored him, turned his back and walked into the house but Ben didn't linger behind as before but followed after Asher briskly.
At lest, he has faith Asher wouldn't kill him judging from the fact he's Lia's sidekick but the same couldn't be said for Raphael.
Who knows whether the guy is behind him and planning to kidnap him when Asher isn't looking. So Ben literally glued himself to Asher's side.
But just as they stepped into the living room, Ben got the greatest shock of his life - he couldn't tell if Asher felt the same way, after all this wasn't the first time he must have seen such a scene.
Facing the entrance, a woman was lying on the centre table while Raphael bent over her, fangs in her neck and feeding from her. He looked up immediately they arrived and flashed them a lopsided smile.
"You're home brother, just in time for dinner"
Ben wasn't a supernatural creature but he could feel the anger surging through Asher's vein. His face was livid while the?veins?on his neck stood out clearly. So he quietly shifted to the side - World War Three was about to begin.
With a feral snarl, Raphael was slammed to the wall with a tremendous force causing him to cough up blood but before he could recover from the attack, an invisible force grabbed his hand and twisted it making it sure to crush the bone completely as he gave out a pained scream.
Ben was amazed watching the scene, he heard Asher had the ability to control the elements but he had never seen him in action till now. He was manipulating the fluid inside Raphael's body to his desire, though as much as it was amazing, it was scary as hell.

Raphael's limbs were twisted inside out and then his head began to contort slowly, slowly, and this time, Ben couldn't watch it but shut his eyes tight.
By the time the bone popping and bloodcurdling screams were over, he slowly opened his eyes, an eye after the other.
" H*ly sh*t!" Ben cursed out loud " You killed your own brother! " He shrieked while gesturing to Raphael's severed head tossed to the corner of the room while bit and pieces of flesh and blood splattered all over the rug.
"That is not Raphael " Asher answered, his voice firm and etched with irritation but Ben didn't believe him.
" How can you say that this is not your brother!" Ben cried out with gestures and all "When I just saw you with my own two clear eyes decapitate your.... wait a minute " He faltered at once.
His head jerked up "This is his ability, isn't it? "
Asher gave his head a tilt " Thankfully you're a smart one "
"Oh my God " Ben gasped and covered his mouth with his hand.
"Raphael has the ability to replicate himself numerous times and if my guess is correct, then the original Raphael is at Lia's place at the moment. This is just a distraction "
