Spurned Luna’s Return: On Your Knees, Alpha Chase

Lavana sighed as the invisibility skill expired. She became visible again. Her head was spinning and her body felt feverish.

She touched her burning forehead and looked upward. Her legs became wobbly to her terror.

No, she couldn’t give up here. Those vampires are coming for her. If they find her… No, they shouldn’t get to her. She must leave… leave this place and enter the sea. She can rest assured underwater… No, she can’t fall…

She collapsed to the ground, blacked out.

Not far from her, the little girl who was being chased earlier came out from behind a thick, unknown tree. She made sure no one was nearby before heading for the fainted lady.

When she ran past earlier, she fell again after diverting into a small path that led no where.

She thought she was done for but then she heard the evil man’s scream and not long after, she heard the woman’s scream. THeir screams were of terror.

She became curious and crawled to the back of a tree and used the trunk as support to stand. It was from there she watched everything unfold. How ice chains and fire balls from unknown source scared them away. She began to wonder if she should run away too. It was then that a nude, thin lady could be seen.

For some reason, there was a blur around her private areas. She guessed it was because she was supernatural being. This lady had helped her and fainted as a result. She couldn’t leave her there. That was ungratefulness!

So, after making sure that no one was around, she ran up to the lady.

She saw she had many bruises on her skin and her black, messy hair covered her face.

She checked her breathing and felt her forehead.

She looked around and tapped twice on her index finger. A golden ring appeared and flew out of her finger. It elongated into a golden scepter with a red crystal at the tip encircled by green vines.

“Oh crystal witch ancestor, grant me my wish. Give me water.” she said in a solemn voice and the levitating scepter glowed.

Three large silver kegs appeared and the scepter transformed into a golden ring back and entered her finger. Then it vanished.

She fell to her knees, covered in sweat and heaved.

Blood trickled out of the corner of her mouth and she coughed.

She felt a headache, but it didn’t stop her from picking up one of the silver kegs and removing the lip.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

She poured some water into it and poured it into Lavana’s mouth.

A minute later, Lavana slowly opened her eyes.

She saw a figure looking at her but it was unclear.

She had no strength to rub her eyes.

“Who are you?” she asked in a parched voice.

She knew this wasn’t some lone vampire coz this figure didn’t smell rotten.

“You are awake, miss. Thanks for saving me.” the little girl helped Lavana sit up and made her drink more water from the keg directly. She finished everything and put it down, gasping for air.

“You must be really thirsty.” the girl commented.

“Yup. I was. Thank you for the water. It’s really refreshing.” Lavana gratefully said. She could now see the girl clearly. She was a little beauty!

“It’s nothing compared to the help you rendered. If I had been caught by them… I would be dead meat. By the way, I’m Beatrix Atlantes. I’m an apprentice witch.” she said.

Lavana recalled that the little girl must have seen her use her powers. So they were both non-humans. They could be friends then and help each other get out of here.

“Oh, a witch! My first time seeing one. I’m Lavana. I’m an Omega.” she introduced herself and extended her hands for a handshake and Beatrix shook hands with her.

“I’m glad to meet you.” Beatrix said.

“Same here. Who were those people?”

“You mean the scums chasing me?”

Lavana nodded as she opened another keg to drink up the water in it.

“Well, they are child traffickers. I woke up in the boot of a car. My hands were tied but luckily my mouth wasn’t taped. I used my witch scepter to free myself and get out of the car, but it somehow alerted them and they started chasing me. I ended up running into the woods, but they still didn’t give up chase.” Beatrix explained.

Lavana put down the water.

“Couldn’t you have used your scepter to escape to a place faraway?” Lavana asked.

“Nope. Witches of high rank can do whatever they want coz they’ve got much power stored in their bodies. I, on the other hand, am just an apprentice. Every usage of my scepter eats much of my energy.”

“So I guess you used your scepter not long ago. Coz these kegs didn’t just fall from the sky, did they?”

“You’re right.”

“Are you hurt?”

“Nope. I’ve recovered now.” Beatrix said with a smile. “I can even use my staff to get some food…”

“No need. Now that I’m no longer thirsty. I have energy to find us some fruits. ” Lavana rose.

“We can’t stay here for too long. I myself, I’m on the run.”

“Huh? Who’s chasing you, miss Lavana?”

“Lone vampires.”

“What?” Beatrix quickly rose. She knew what an encounter with vampires meant say less of an unrestrained, high-level lone vampire.

They were really not safe in the woods.

“Miss Lavana, you are right. This place isn’t safe and two are better than one.” she gingerly said.

“Alright! Let’s go. First, we need to find a big water source and no, don’t dare think of using your scepter. Not while you are with me.” Lavana stretched her body.

She then went on one knee.

“Get on my back. It will be better for both of us.”

“Okay!”

Beatrix quickly climbed onto her back and Lavana rose and steadied herself.

Hug my neck.” she commanded and the little one obeyed.

“Time to run!” she said and started running in another direction. She picked up her pace soon, to the extent that everything was a blur to Beatrix. She almost went dizzy.

“Just close your eyes and relax,” Lavana suggested.

“Alright, miss Lavana,” Beatrix whispered and did as she was told. She could only feel the welcoming breeze as Lavana ran.
