The Rejected Alpha's Vengeance

Chapter 372 Alone In The Dark



[JER]

* who else missed Jer other than no one ^-^

"Again!! We don't have people all day. We have four maniacs on the loose who are willing to do whatever it takes to kill all of us. I know you don't mind dying because of your immortality, but I have to survive!" Jer shouted as they packed up.

He had been cooperative with the Russel siblings in a bid to break the hold that Atticus had left him with, but for an entire year, he had failed. It didn't matter that Atticus had died or even that Jer had died and worked up immortal.

The bond was still there and he had made a promise, and a duty to kill Hawi. That was something that he had to do if he wanted to be free.

For the past seven months, Jer had tried to move to a different country, a different place, hell even a different realm but he had dialed to even leave the supernatural realm to go into the human realm.

He had no way to know if his parents were alright and that shit was eating at him. Atticus had bound his life to the oath and the fate of his parents. Read exclusive content at empire

If he didn't take out Hawi, his parents would die and frankly, he wasn't ready to lose his parents. No child ever was anyway. Funny how he had been quick to screw Hawi over more than once.

"What's the rush? We just got this little kid back and he reeks of Nik and Atticus," Sebastian, one of the Seven asked as he stared down at Jer.

They had all been working together to make sure the people were safe and to make sure they were ready for when the Savasci knights came for them, but Jer had been a little too hard on their asses since the kid came back.

"The rush? They are coming for us. The mad women are coming for us. They already killed Razia and Atticus. What do you think they will do to Nik? Also, where the hell is Amina?" Jer asked as he paced around.

Sebastian just stared at him, wondering whether this man was right in the head or not. In which world did a mere wolf think that he was better than the seven warlocks who had lived for endless centuries?

"Listen here, kid. You are not in charge. You are nothing to us. Just because you got Atticus's magic in your veins doesn't make you someone we should care about. You are always going to be the little pathetic rogue that Razia brought home for the mission.

"You are always going to be the boy so unwanted that he had to try and kill people to gain favor… and even then still didn't get anyone on his side. You're a pathetic little shit and if you think you give the orders here;

"Then I might as well give you the polite reminder that I am the most powerful of the Russel siblings. Ten times more powerful than Atticus.

"Now don't try my patience again. Get off your high horse and go work with the servants to make sure everything is alright," Sebastian spelled out for Jer while the two other Russel siblings laughed in amusement at how Jer was harshly brought down his high horse.

The Russel siblings were never in a rush to do anything that they didn't want to. They hadn't gone after the Savasci knights because they were waiting for the Savasci knights to get tired so they would be easier to attack.

They were waiting for the time that they would be more powerful than the crazy knights, but then that was never going to come true, because the knights may have been five emotionally scarred women, but they were always going to be a force to be reckoned with.

They were always going to be the one bunch of women that no one would want to fuck around with. Because those who fucked around lived in long enough to find out and then died soon after.

"You were too harsh on him, Seb. Remember Atticus bound him to Hawi's life. As long as Hawi lives, the kid has to fight and find ways to kill him, or everyone around him will start fading," Alex, another Russel brother said as he walked over to where Sebastian was with a disapproving face.

There was more to this than they could ever comprehend, but the fact that two of them were dead at the hands of those women, not to mention was captured and another was unaccounted for was something that screamed danger to their family.

For years, the Russel siblings had perfected the art of staying in power. They had explored all sorts of dark magic, and all the evil that they could get their hands on, but then they had never been prepared for a woman as crazy as Hawi.

They had started monitoring Hawi from within and even though at the time Hawi had no idea of who she truly was and her protector powers were pressed, she still scared the hell out of the Russel siblings.

She was too powerful, too headstrong, and too cunning to be trapped. They had tried to bring her down one too many times and each time they had failed.

"What do we do with this little human thing?" Trey, the last of the seven, asked as he studied young Kurt who was just standing there like a tree.

The kid had seen enough battles and horrors in the little time he had interacted with Hawi and her mad crew, that he had learned to stay in one place. He was scared of being torn to pieces only to be brought back together and still be torn again.

Hawi and her team had fucked up the autistic boy's brain so that there was only fear of life left. The kid was scared of staying alive because that meant that Hawi and her people would come for him and force him to do whatever they wanted to.

It was a harsh truth for the kid, but what else was there when they needed to figure it all out faster than possible then?

"It looks too tiny, so squishy. Can I eat him?" Trey questioned as he licked his lips, like a man ready to eat his next meal. He was the youngest of the Russel siblings, but with Kurt with them now, Trey was no longer their last brother.

But damn, that still didn't cover for the shit that the man was thinking at the moment, even if he couldn't be blamed for seeing the kid as a tool for him to play with when he was buried, like now.

"That is our brother you little shit," Alex facepalmed defeatedly.

They had been expecting the kid to be this tiny but then here they were. Hell, they hadn't been expecting any kids at all. They were all well past a thousand years old and their parents had long fields along the years. So, this just didn't make any sense to them.

"Where is Amina? She should have been back by now," Seb asked, ignoring his brothers who were amused by the kid in their midst. He couldn't blame them anyway.

If Atticus had been here with them, Seb would have also been playing games with the kid in their midst. But then Atticus wasn't home. Razia wasn't home. Nik was captured by the Savasci Knights and Amina was nowhere to be found.

"Where did she go?"

"To get us the best tool to win this war with the crazy women. Her mate."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
