Chapter Fourteen

Alyx

I plaited my hair and looked at my reflection. I was now guarded around the clock just in case something happened. I looked at the dress in the corner and ran my hands over it.

"Are you decent? I'm coming in." Jayden spoke before the door opened. She was nervous around me, something that had never happened before.

"Hey. Please take a seat." I gestured to the seat at the opposite end of the room.

"We came to a group decision that you're to be kept locked in here for another week." She whispered. "Just in case."

What's that? Your friends don't trust you? Kill them. Kill them all.

I heard the voice in my head and I took a deep breath.

"I completely understand. You may leave. I wish to be alone."

She nodded before running out the room.

--

It had been two days since then, I was now pacing the room. My inner wolf hating being caged up. I tapped my foot repeatedly thinking of something to do.

Demon realm?

I pressed my hands against the wall and I instantly heard footsteps up the stairs and the door burst open as I went to step through it. Calum and Mercy stood there ready to attack.

"I can't stay cooped up forever, I'm a wolf. It's mandatory for us to be able to run." With that I slipped through the portal. I watched as they tried to enter it but it closed behind me. I clicked my fingers and the black dress from the incident covered me instantly. My hair stayed in the plait.

I walked along the streets of hell and ignored the whispers around me.

I walked into a bar and walked right up to the bar tender.

"Give me your strongest, I've had a long week." I sighed. He nodded his hands shaking as he made the drink.

"J-Just please don't hurt me." He stuttered.

"Why would I hurt you? Do I look like I'm here to fight?" I asked.

"You and your friends are the most feared group of fighters there are in the whole demon realm and your realm." He spoke handing me a red drink.

"Oh really now?" I let a smirk play on my lips as I stirred the drink with my pointer finger.

"That's why Eric wants you, with you he can do almost anything and your friends have their hands tied."

"Thank you for the valuable information." I smiled genuinely at him.

"He's going to kill me now I've said that..." he muttered and as if on cue Eric arrived.

"You didn't learn your lesson from last time you spilled information did you Mark?" Eric snarled. I knocked back the drink with ease and stood up.

"Eric leave here." I spoke calmly. "If you don't I'll just have to kick your ass once again."

"S-She's protecting him?" People muttered.

"I may not be apart of this realm, but you're overreacting, it's not like he told me your ultimate plan." I advanced towards him materialising a sword and had the point against his neck within a second. "So I suggest you take your sorry ass back to where you came from and leave him alone. I'll know if you've touched anyone in this bar or family of anyone in this bar. If that's the case I'll be back here ready to kill you for the sly manipulator you are."

"Fine I'll go, I'll see you around my princess." He smirked and planted a kiss on my cheek. I dropped the sword and swung my fist and felt the connection seconds before he teleported out.

"Everyone here and family of everyone here is under my protection till necessary." I bowed and looked up. Everything in better condition. My eyes must have turned black.

"Thank you, Alyx." The bar tender smiled. I nodded curtly before opening a portal and returning back to my room.

My inner wolf seemed content with the little trip.

When I got back no one was in my room. I stripped down before putting pjs on and falling into bed. I rolled myself into the blankets and fell asleep.
