The Hunters

Chapter 5

Nico's POV

Casey was beautiful. I felt a connection towards her. It wasn't just because she was beautiful, her personality was equal.

"Son! I have captured a werewolf!" My dad came from running through the door.

"You did? Who is it?" I wondered.

"He is big and intimidating. Not big enough to be an alpha, so it's the beta!" My dad yelled excited.

"Really? That's great!" I sighed running my hands through my hair.

"Come on son, let's go take a look."

Ever since Ryder died nothing has been the same. We pledged we would avenge his death. My dad and I walked down the path coming face to face with a very angry looking beta.

"Ahahaha! What do we have here?" He said evilly.

"Mr Beta, what a pleasure!" My dad said not moving his facial expression.

I wondered how he got out of the nets. With those sharp claws I had no doubt.

"I have notified my alpha and he is on his way!" The beta boomed.

"Not before I kill you!" I snarled.

I lunged straight for the beta. Pulling out my rifle filled with silver bullets to and with wolfsbane. I shot him. It landed straight in his heart. I killed him. I KILLED THE BETA! I jumped for joy.

"Good job son! Let's get you cleaned up and leave before the alpha gets here," my dad said calmly.

That when I noticed my face was stinging and blood my pouring out. He scratched my face. No biggie, so neosporin and a band-aid will solve my problem. We got in our car and drove off. The sound of a pained wolf howl could be heard as we drove off.

Casey's POV

My dad and I waited patiently for they Grey's.

Beep Beep

My phone rung. I had a text from Ryder.

Ryder ^ - ^ : you and me dinner tonight?

My heart fluttered. He's asking me on a date!!

Casey >3 : is this your way of asking me on a date?

Ryder ^ - ^ : yes it is! you better say yes.

Casey >3 : yes I will come. Let me check with my dad.

He didn't reply after that.

"Hey dad?" I said.

"Yes! I'm in the kitchen."

"Um.... I was wondering if I could go on a date tonight?" I asked shyly.

"But we are going hunting with the Grey's!" My dad said.

"Please dad! Just this once. It's my first date."

"Okay, I will let you go."

"Thanks daddy!" I jumped up and kissed his cheek.

I then ran upstairs trying to fine what to where.

Ryder's POV

I was surprised she said yes.

Ryder ^ - ^ : pick you up at 8!

Casey >3 : okay! ;)

My wolf was whining in my head telling me something was wrong.

Yes Troy?

Beta is captured!

What? He would have notified me.

His wolf cut him off so he can't mind link. But I can feel it. I will try to contact his wolf and let him know we are coming.

But what about mate?

We will be back in time. Don't worry Ryder.

The thing about Troy is that I can trust him. He is known for being a great tracker. I headed outside and undressed. I shifted into my wolf. I was on my way. That's when it hit me. A searing pain stung my chest as a whine escaped my lips. I know every pack member could feel the Beta's pain. I needed to find him before he's killed. I run faster tracking his scent. It was too late. My beta, Ron, laid dead on the forest floor. A sad howl escaped my lips. I laid on the floor against him. He was killed by silver and wolfsbane. The most deadly to the werewolves. Whoever killed him is going to pay. The familiar scent still lingered. Humans.

My wolf lingered in disgust. I can't believe I used to be one of them. Being a werewolf has had its perks. A familiar scent wafted my nose. My eyes grew pale. It was Nico who killed my beta. My wolf snarled in my head telling me to kill my own flesh. My twin.
