Rosie was struggling to fight Blue Dog as his verbal attacks proved far more effective against her than his physical attacks.“Don’t get pulled into his pace, Rosie,” Maria warned her daughter while defending herself from Ayan and Johnson’s attacks. “He’s a melee fighter. Keep your distance and deal damage.”Rosie listened to her mother’s advice and backed away.“You think I’ll let you do that?” Blue Dog tried to close in the distance, but she made water-walls out of thin air, and they momentarily slowed Blue Dog. In that time, she made the distance. To her surprise, her mother also joined her.Maria quickly said in a low voice, “If Dave and Shreya join in the fight, things will get out of our hands. There’s only one way we can escape from this.” She made an ‘o’ symbol with her hand. “You know what I’m talking about, right?”“You don’t mean…” Rosie’s eyes widened. “But if we do that…”Maria grabbed her daughter’s hand and created a rising pillar of water under their feet to jump off t
In the library, Justin was looking around to see if he could find anything valuable other than the books; things he could shove in his pockets or underwear. After all, Shreya wasn’t around. And there was nobody else around, not counting Myles and Verella.Verella was reading a book about vampires, whereas Myles was on his knees and massaging her legs. She put her calves on top of both his shoulders and had this cheeky grin on her face. “Most men wouldn’t show as much interest in massaging a woman's legs as they would in licking them, but you are different. I’m liking you more and more.”Myles, however, didn’t show any reaction in his face. He still vividly remembered the time when a dagger had pierced his heart, and the words his wife Vreka had used in his last moments.He used to be weak to praise in his past life, especially when it was women that were praising him, but now, he knew better.“Why would a slave hesitate to massage his master’s legs?” Myles responded lately.“I wouldn’
The tree branches broke into the library and destroyed the shelves and everything there. But Myles, Verella, and Justin had already left the library.They were outside and watching the horror take place right before their eyes. While Verella didn’t show much of a reaction, Justin was terrified by seeing the young students dying left and right. The students in the cobra institute were all preteens, young teens, or teenagers. Seeing them impaled almost froze Justin’s body in dread.Myles, on the other hand, didn’t like what he was seeing. The cries of the teenagers, every single cry, reached his ears, but he tried not to let their voices touch his heart.Just then, a ten-year-old was dragged by a branch right before his eyes. Justin was too shook by fear to move, whereas Verella seemed to not care that people were dying, as if she had seen things like this before.Myles had also seen things like these, things way worse and horrific than these, but the ten-year-old’s miserable voice sayi
All the wooden bullets struck Myles, or so it seemed for a second. But the bullets actually stopped millimeters close to Myles.“What the hell?” Amir got perplexed for a second. The bullets turned around and flew at Amir with triple the speed. He swatted them away with his hand and looked at Myles in surprise. “I see. So you were hiding your strength. Now I believe that you took my son out.” He raised his hand and clenched it. Spiky branches grew all around Myles and tried to impale him from every direction.Myles jumped into the air and dodged from the deadly attack.“Got you!” Amir raised his hands, and his fingers extended into branches and shot themselves at the target up in the air. “Ten Snake Threat!”Like living snakes, the ten branches rose up toward Myles at a great speed. Suddenly, Verella broke free from the forest binding her and slashed her claws at the ten wooden snakes and tore through them with effort.“Krgh,” Amir felt so much pain as if he lost his own fingers. He gr
“Myles! Run away!” Justin screamed. He had seen enough betrayals to know that Verella was probably going to sell Myles away for her own benefit. Even though shouting like this was going to put him at risk, he still ended up warning Myles anyway.“What a nuisance,” Amir flicked his fingers and sent a wooden bullet flying at Justin. Before it struck his forehead, Myles caught it.Justin couldn’t even see Myles coming, but his eyes teared up seeing Myles save him once again.Myles looked at Verella with a disappointed expression because she was going to let Justin die. She might also let him die.“Myles…” Verella said aloud. “Are you going to surrender yourself to him if I ask you to?”“I won’t,” Myles responded without hesitating. “A master needs to act in the wellbeing of his slave, in the same way a slave must act in the wellbeing of his master. Otherwise, the master-slave game is all null and void.”“That’s not the master-slave definition in my dictionary, though,” Verella grinned. “
“Impossible!” Amir couldn’t believe what he was seeing. Until now, nobody had ever broken out of his Grand Freezing like Myles just did.“You’re attacking me because I killed your son,” Myles stated. “I can understand that, but what did the students of this institute do to you? If killing them is justifiable, don’t you think I can justify your son’s death even more?”“Shut the fuck up!” Amir howled and recklessly attacked Myles with his bare fist. But it was stopped with just a mere finger. Amir’s face turned pale. His punch that could destroy a boulder into smithereens was blocked by Myles’ forefinger. “H-How’s this possible?”Myles looked into Amir’s eyes and saw his past. When Amir was a kid, his parents used to fight everyday, and then they would show all their frustration on him. They only had horrible words for him. Growing up, home was like hell to him. Maybe that was why he completely let his son Emery live however he wanted.“It’s important to give you children freedom,” Myle
Rosie and Maria dove through the underwater tunnel system, and reached the outskirts of the city. They both came out through a pond built next to a park. They weren’t gasping or anything, as they were able to breathe underwater.Maria looked around but found no sign of other alphas around. “Great. They must be looking in the wrong direction for us. We’ll have enough time to leave this city.”“But I don’t want to leave without Phil,” Rosie expressed her opinion.Maria couldn’t hide her anger this time. “Are you out of your fucking mind?” she rapped her daughter’s head with her knuckles. “Do you think you would have stood a chance against the alphas if they had used stardium weapons on you?”“But they hadn’t, had they?”“That’s because they wanted to take the cobra crystal back from us. They won’t be the same the second time.”“If you want, you can go, but I will go and find Phil,” Rosie ran away.“This little fool,” Maria didn’t want to use her powers and attract unnecessary attention,
When Justin got pushed from the floating island, he screamed so hard his uvula was very much up for view.Piss escaped through his fleshy pipe in the pants before he knew it. But his crying didn’t slow his fall by any means. Those few seconds passed by faster than ever. He gave up on his life, though his throat still kept screaming.Just as he was crashing in the middle of a street, a bubble rose out of the ground and cushioned him and trapped him inside, completely robbing him of his momentum. And then the bubble popped.Myles landed next to him, his feet softly tapping the ground.Justin was still in so much shock he couldn’t believe he was still alive.Myles shut his own nose. “I didn’t know you’d piss in your pants. Or, I wouldn’t have pushed you. Let’s get a change of clothes.”There wasn’t much crowd at all around them because most people had run away from that location, afraid that the floating island might collapse any moment.Alpha Johnson was coincidentally passing by at a s
