Bound By Duty (completed editing)

fighting my mate

Aylaxe's POV

"What?!" I couldnt believe it. It wasnt possible. My father! Lestat Drakova! Hurt?!

"We need to go now." Max paced in front of the car, his fingers tracing the bridge of his nose.

"We can't take the cars" i said, he glanced at me questionningly.

"Soren knows what cars we drive. What if he has a plan to stop us from going home? We have to come out of this place unnoticed"

Taking a breath i prayed that max would agree with me.

"Bikes!" Max ran into the garage to stand next to two latest model honda bikes.

"Dad's gift" he shrugged. Without wasting time, i grabbed the leather jacket and boots max threw me, and sat on the bike whilst putting my helmet on. As i put the keys onto the ignition the engine roared to life.

"Put your phone on" max shouted above the noise made by the bikes. I took of the helmet and placed my bluetooth in my ear, waiting to answer max's call. As soon as we were connected i placed the helmet firmly on my head and followed max out of the garage and onto the busy streets of new york.

"Ok max give me the status on the attack" i spoke clearly so that max could hear me. Steering through the overcrowded streets we made it onto the highway, with me hot on max's trails.

"As far as i know ayla, it was a suprise attack, dad's hurt" i could hear the sadness in his voice, even through the background noise

"Viktor managed to create a border of fire around the house before more got through but the ones that did were killed. He is guarding the house with nicholas and the bodyguards. Layela and the others have managed to cast a spell to shield the house but its only a matter of time before the rogues breakthrough"

Processing the information i started to think of a plan.

"Ayla i called yaris and sam, they're waiting for us at 6th junction" only max could have thought of a plan that quick

Sam and yaris were our full time trainers, they were also our part time bodyguards but since they were off duty they were not at home.

"How many rogues" i asked max whilst overtaking a blue toyota

"100 or more"

"How many are we?" Afraid of the answer i waited.

"65 or so"

My head reeled. The only way we could beat them is by attacking from the outside. Where they would be suprised.

"Have they surrounded the house max"

"Yes they have"

"Ok we attack from the outside" he understood as soon as the words were out of my mouth

"Agreed"

max's bike had slowed down and i could see 3 cars waiting by the side of the road. Sam and yaris stood out side the cars.

Max stayed on his bike and motioned sam and yaris to follow us. Sam ran into the first car whereas yaris walked calmly and got into the third car. They were always different.

I hoped max had briefed them on our plan. Our route scenery had started to take a change as the breathtaking views of british columbia could now be seen. Familar roads and houses passed by but i kept driving. As soon as the woods came into view i was on full alert. We abbandoned our bikes and cars and walked into the woods silently. Breaking into four groups we moved closer and closer. Sam and yaris instructed their pack to move behind us. Sam's tall but muscular figure moved to my right and yaris's tall and skinny figure was on max's left. And then i felt it.

My mate was here. And today, it was either him or me.
