The Other Half

Chapter 40

Hunter's journey to the den of the wicked mortals feels like forever. His heart is beating faster and faster as the minute pass by. He is in full range, his wolf wanted to take control but Hunter knew better. His wolf will only worsen the already worst situation if he ever lost control.

Kiarra and Mina is leading the way. Everything is fine until the two ladies came to halt, they look around, sensing a strange feeling.

"What?" asked Hunter confused.

"Something change..." Kiarra mumbled.

"I sensed it too. Feels like there's a planted trap around the area," Mina said as she look to Kiarra. They would know because they'd been there.

"Screw it!" Hunter growled and then run ahead of the whole troop. Despite of the hypothesis of the two ladies claimed, the whole group followed their Alpha's lead.

While everyone is in a run, Hunters decided to jump off the trees they were hiding from. Hunters are wearing spelled perfume that has the ability to blind any immortal's smelling sense.

"Hunters!" Kiarra was the first to noticed the enemies.

"Go on! We will handle the situation here!" yelled Drake who leads the troop in the area. The group was divided into two. Half was running, aiming to attack the enemy's territory, half was in the war between mortals and immortals.

Angry because of what this humans did to their Luna, the pack warriors fought with enemies in range and with determination to win the justice their Luna deserved.

On the other hand, as they approached near the hunter's territory, Hunter felt Aubrey's terror. It only fueled his burning emotions, rotten in madness. Minutes after, the immortals stood straight few meters away from the castle-like structure of the building. With no sign of hesitation, Hunter growled, loud and long before running to lead the attack.

"Clear Alpha's way quick!" Damon commanded. Pack warriors move fast and covered up their Alpha. As they move nearer, as if they were sensed, a loud horn echoed in the whole area. It tells a message that they were under attack. The alarm cannot be heard in torture room where Aubrey is being punished.

Hunter attacks, and whoever got his way was either killed or damaged. Their war have begun, more hunters appeared to join the fight. Not able to control his beast, Hunter shifted. His clothes were torn apart because of his transformation. Another scary growl escaped his beast's mouth.

"Go to hell!" a man screamed and then he shoot Hunter in his leg. The bullet didn't even budge Hunter from his stand. His head swing to he man's way, burning eyes to a shaking one. Slowly, the man took a step back, now scared of the beast in front of him that looks murderous than other beasts he have seen his entire life! He fired the gun again, and again, and again until the big wolf bites his hand that holds the gun. The man screamed because of pain. He look at his arm that was cut, his hand was separated from his arm as blood flood out. Without any act of mercy, Hunter smacked the guy down and then he cut his head, it rolled in the bloody ground afterwards.

Out of nowhere, in the middle of the war, an extreme pain made Hunter kneel in the ground. It was as if he was stabbed in the chest, way too painful, way too cruel. Horror took over as he feel that he's slowly loosing his connection with his mate, their bond is slowly fading away, it is breaking apart. Then a voice echoed in his head, a voice that only breaks his heart into pieces.

"Hunter..." he heard Aubrey's voice. As if she wanted to say for the last time that she loves the man.

The anger that vanishes for a short time cameback to life, but stonger now, uncontrollable and unbreakable. For some reason, Hunter knew where to find Aubrey.

"The Alpha! Follow Alpha Hunter!" Damon demanded when he saw Hunter furiously taking a different path. Some warriors abandoned the war just to escort their Alpha. Hunter follow his senses and it brought him to a dungeon in just a couple of seconds.

"We are under attack! We are under attack!" a man move around to announce the happening outside the dungeon. While his pack warriors are busy protectig him from humans and their toys, Hunter was staring. A closed door caught his attention, and by just looking at it, he was certain.

'Aubrey is on that room!' he said to himself.

The man run to the room, he screamed once more, "We are under attack!"

As soon as the door swung open and as soon as he saw Aubrey laying on that platform almost lifeless, Hunter made a demonic growl. Everything he see becomes red and black because of anger. He wants to kill, he wants to hurt, to hear this people's cries, complaints, scream and he wants them all DEAD.

Dead...

Just like his mate who was stabbed in the chest with crucifix.

As if Hunter was possessed with an evil's will, he move fast to tore everyone's body apart, without mercy but with satisfaction. Couple of head rolls in the ground, the ground that was already covered with blood stains only becomes more bloody, like a river of red thick liquid that runs in this filthy human's system.

"Hold him tight!" somebody yelled from Hunter's behind. There was a silver chain that knots Hunter's torso. The metal slowly burn his flesh, silvers are wolve's weakness, they'll be burned because of this metal. There's another man from his side that holds the other end of the silver chain. Hunter growled because of pain, but that didn't last for long because he was rescued by Kiarra. Silvers has no effect to vampires.

Kiarra grabbed the chain and then she wrapped it up on the men's body using her incredibe speed. After the men are already chained, using her full force, she pulled the metal so tight, real tight. After the pull she applied, the men's body exploded, they were crushed inside of their own weapon. Their internal organs flew in the air, just like how Kiarra wanted it.

Gardon was left alone and guardless in the room. As if he was gone crazy, he laughs loud and hard. "Not someone like you can bring down my organization!" he yelled then laugh again. "I, great hunter Gardon cannot be defeat by anyone! No one can beat me!"

Hunter suddenly shifted to his human form. He wants to kill Gardon using his bare hands.

"Die" was the only word he said before he dig his hands in Gardon's chest and squeezed his heart inside until it explode. Blood left Gardon's mouth. Hunter pulled his hands out, the human's flesh still sticking on his skin. Then he rushed to Aubrey.

"Mate... mate wake up. I'm here... please, Aubrey..." Hunter plead.

"Move aside." Kiarra said not minding the rank Hunter behold. "There are two ways to save her. First, heal her using my blood, but if that not works, I'll have to turn her, but not without your consent."
