Hunted *Book One Of The Hunted Series*

Chapter 34: Stalking The Enemy

"Cool." She says smiling.

I walk up to Malia as she looks over my coven and her pack, as they sit around a huge campfire, enjoying the cool night.

"What's on your mind?"

Malia glances at me before turning her attention back to the pack.

Eyeing her lounging mate more than anything.

"I'm going on a mission later on tonight. I hope it's ok with you?" She questions.

I watch as her mate looks up at her, eyebrow arched.

"What kind of mission?" Kayla questions, staring at the tall woman.

She sighs and pinches the bridge of her nose. I smirk, knowing she's getting annoyed with all the questions.

"The hunters belong to Bella. I want to check them out." She says, staring at Kayla, whose eyes are narrowed at her explanation.

"Are you going alone?" Kayla quietly questions from her spot against Chey.

Malia shrugs and cocks her head towards me.

"Oh no, i'm not going."

Malia whips her head towards me, frowning.

"Why not?" She whines, causing everybody to chuckle and Shannon to look confused.

"What I miss?" Shannon whispers to Terrance.

"Malia being a brat." Terrance says before a potted plant hits him in the back of the head, causing him to howl with laughter and Malia to chuckle.

"You have a pack Malia. It's the perfect time for them to prove themselves to you."

She looks from a laughing Terrance to me and groans but nods.

"Get up here." She grunts.

Devon, Kira and Mia damn near break their necks to get to the first floor balcony. They bow to her and she grunts.

"There's no need for that. You're coming with me on a stealth mission. You are to stick to the shadows. You follow what I say, not as I do. You don't move until I tell you to, understand?" She questions, staring them down.

They nod and I watch as their eyes start to change into their beast.

"Meet me at the door." Malia orders.

They nod and blur to the door. Malia looks at me and I smirk before kissing Kayla's cheek and walking towards my lounging mate.

"You'll be safe right?" Kayla asks her mate.

I sit between Chey's warm thighs, purring as she plays in my curls.

"Of course. I'll make it back home to you, I promise." Malia grunts.

They kiss and Malia nods at the rest of us.

I look around as my pack and I move in the trees, sticking to the shadows.

I motion to Devon to take to the treetops, Kira and Mia take the lower ground.

Me on the other hand, walk right through the trees, calling darkness to keep us covered.

Devon does a silent whistle, the darkness carries it to my ears.

I look in his general direction.

"Four hunters right in front of you boss." He says, his voice being carried on the darkness covering him.

I nod at him and slowly, avoiding any fallen branches, I walk right up to the four armed hunters.

"She's sending us on a suicide mission. I've heard of this pack, they don't play any games." The taller one says, scratching his cheek.
