Rejected, Abused, I Fall for the Forbidden Alpha (by Riley Scott) novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49

Famous last words. He could never have anticiapted what happened next.

Hades opened his mouth to argue. The sound of an arrow whizzing caught all our attention. We ducked, and the arrow hit the front of the limousine, implanting itself.

What the fuck? The arrow was made of silver. This alone was suspicious. Hades’ next words confirmed my worst fears.

“Hunters,” Hades roared, “quick, get down. Aeress stay with Raven!”

“Fucking great,” Aeress muttered as the boys began to shift, “the last goddamn thing we need.”

Hunters were humans, but trained to kill shifters. They were ruthless and didn’t care whether they killed men, women, or children. They believed all of our kind were disgusting and nothing more than monsters.

“You should shift too,” I told her, still ducking low behind the limousine, “help the men.”

Hades and Jackson had already split up, heading in the direction the arrow had come from.

“What about you?” Aeress looked hesitant, biting her lip as she glanced at me, “I’m sure that they wanted

me to remain with you.”

“I can protect myself. Stay here if you want, but we’re both sitting ducks at the moment. Better to be on

the offence then defence.”

It was kill or be killed. I had no sympathies for the hunters. They made a living killing the innocent with no regard for anybody but themselves and their despicable beliefs. They were the monsters, not us.

“True. But what if you get hurt?” she protested, still doubtful.
