Fated To Three Betrayed By All Until She Rose (Leilani) by Ahvahh novel Chapter 413

Chapter 413: Touché

Leilani.

For the first few seconds after the big burly stinky men materialized out of thin air and crowded in front of us menacingly, no one spoke.

No one even moved or breathed wrongly.

We just stood there, engaging in a game of stare down while I wondered how we would navigate through this challenge without any of us getting hurt in any way.

The tips of my fingers thrummed as if possessed by some invincible energy and my eyebrows twitched uncomfortably when one of them came dangerously too close, took a whiff of my scent and drawled;

"You’re her."

I frowned. "Who?"

"You’re the girl. The Leilani girl, right?"

For a moment, I didn’t know how to respond to him. I didn’t know if to say yes or no... or whatever. I shrugged and took a step back, hiding between Kael and Zevran.

"We do not mean any harm and would like to be on our way now. So please, let us go."

My voice trembled slightly and goddess I hate it.

One of the men, the one who appeared to be their leader, cocked his eyebrows at me, and after a moment of intense stare down, he shrugged and hissed;

"No."

Caelum charged forward until he was almost standing toe to toe with the man. He let his eyes take over his body, his lower lip curling into a snarl as he hissed;

"Get off."

"A bloody werewolf!" The man snarled. "A bloody werewolf is trying to scare me!"

The laughs that rippled through the rest of them was almost embarrassing. In fact, it was embarrassing! I gritted my teeth to stop the curse word right on the tip of my tongue from escaping, and rolled my eyes when another stalked close— a little too close— toyed with a strand of my hair and hissed;

"There is nothing different about her."

"Nothing has to be different!" The big burly one snapped, "if madam Keisha says we’re killing her, then we are. We do not have to question if there’s something different about her or not."

I frowned.

Nothing different?

Can they not see the fact that I am stuck in a state of mid shift?

Can they not see my elongated lim—?

Wait, what the fuck?!

My eyes widened when I looked down at my hands and legs only to realize that the problem wasn’t that they couldn’t see my elongated limbs, the problem was that it wasn’t there. I had shifted back to normal without even realizing!

This realization made my eyebrows shoot into my hairline. It made my throat go dry and I was suddenly filled with annoyance slash apprehension.

Zevran, who noticed my frown, turned to look at me, his eyebrows cocked as he tilted his head to the side as if asking; "Is anything the matter?"

I shook my head.

Then he nodded.

I was however just about to ask the people what they intend to do to us when one of the minions standing at the back beat me to it, he asked;

"Do we have to keep waiting for Miss K or do we kill them off now?"

Kill them off... I froze.

If the situation was any different, then I would’ve killed him first.
