The innocent reject novel Chapter 14

Ch 14 The secret meet

Today was the day when those 2 backstabbers were going to meet again.

I was sitting on top of the branch of a tree near their meeting spot.

Soon I saw a man with hood come towards the tree,he came and stood just below the branch I was sitting on

I became still

Another hooded figure came towards him with some papers in her hands.

"I missed you..."

The girl said and hugged him

The way they were acting made me think if they were mates

"The meeting is after 2 days,all will be gathered for the ceremony and that will be the best time to attack

This is the map of the territory and I have marked the areas with red which are open

But keep in mind that the attack is after the mating ceremony otherwise all this will be in vain"

"And what about her ,when will we kill her"

"There is no need for that ,she will not be an obstacle "

Who were they talking about ,could it be Jane,killing her after the ceremony seemed logical but then why did this girl say that she will not be an obstracle .Jane is strong.

This is so confusing ,my assumptions are not viable.

The girl with cloak handed the map to the hooded figure

The girl's arm had a gold bracelet with rubies embedded in it.

I had seen it somewhere but I couldn't locate it.

.....Aleka think.....

My thinking was cut short when 2 patrol wolves came near them

The hooded figure pushed the girl back and asked her to go while he stood in her defence.

With his one hand he ripped the throat of one wolf.

His painful howl filled the silent forest

Within seconds the other wolf met the same fate and was lying on the ground .

All this happened so fast that I couldn't move a muscle to save them

I guess now was the time to see who this man was

I jumped down from the tree and landed smooth on my feet

He was standing in front of me

His combat boots came in my view

I straightened up to look into his eyes

But when I saw them all my confidence disappeared

Blood red

That was the colour of his eyes which were staring at me with surprised

It felt like he knew me from before

No words were exchanged

I stood still ,lost in those red eyes

Not because they were beautiful but because they were deadly

Those red eyes were my worst nightmares

And today my worst nightmare was staring at me.

Revenge

The only thing I wanted

But right now I was doubting myself

Am I capable of killing this deadly beast?

He was the second person I was scared of
