The Alpha's Queen

Chapter 23

-Chapter 23-

Recap-

I smiled seeing that each bullet hit the intended target perfectly. The back of their heads.

I looked down at the fallen man beside my feet and the three men near the front entrance. I then turned to a very shocked Hunter and said, "You might want to get rid of the bodies before more men arrive to search for them."

————————————————————————

I sat calmly at the bottom of the stairs watching the chaos commence in front of me.

I sighed rolling my eyes and looked down at the dagger in my hand, covered in blood. I took the piece of wet cloth I grabbed from the kitchen and started wiping the blood away. This dagger is too beautiful to be stained.

"I can't believe she killed him!" Tammy rambled in hysterics, "The council is going to ruin us. He was the son of an ancient one! What are we going to do now?"

"First, we have to get rid of the body and any traces of them being here. Then we'll decide what to do." Hunter said, pacing around the foyer, his hands clenching his hair in frustration. "That's exactly what we're going to do."

James and Talon sat by Dicksons body, staring at him with wide, unbelieving and fearful eyes and muttering, "We are going to die."

Rhodey was trailing after a frantic Tammy and Hunter, trying to calm them down.

I rolled my eyes and continued wiping the blade clean.

After all the blood was wiped off, I kept the cloth aside and examined the now shiny and stainless dagger. The blade reflected my bloody face.

I looked down at my hands to see them covered in blood from the dagger. I unknowingly wiped some of it on my face while wiping the dagger, so now my face had a little more than just a few splatters of blood.

Thank god I didn't have to use the other two daggers. They're too beautiful, really. I almost didn't want to use this one, but I didn't have a choice.

"Corinna!" Tammy exclaimed, fear dripping from her voice, "Do you have any idea what you have done?! How can you be sitting so calmly like this? You killed a very important and dangerous member of the council!"

I looked up to her without raising my head and said in a deadly voice, "So am I."

Tammy gulped audibly at the look in my eyes and took a step back. I could literally see the goosebumps on her arms. I could smell the fear she was radiating.

The thought that I could bring fear in their hearts brought a small smirk on my face.

"Actually," I said again in the same tone leaning back on the stairs, "More than he can ever be."

I took the bloodied cloth and wiped it on my face. Hoping to remove the blood. Looking at my reflection on the blade, I sighed seeing it had only smeared the blood further.

"Well," I sighed deeply getting up.

I raised an eyebrow at the twins who suddenly jumped to their feet.

Rolling my eyes, I stretched and yawned, the dagger still clenched in my hand. "I'm going to go wash up and rest a little while you guys clean up this mess. All of this was really tiring."

"See ya guys in a bit." I nodded at the wide eyed witches before picking up the gun by my feet and climbing back up the stairs.

"Hey, get up."

I woke up feeling sparks running along my arm. The same sizzling pop sensation I get every time he touches me. Everyone time Hunter touches me.
