BXBX NOVEL Chapter 87 Defeated Once Again
[ Triple W Headquarters… ]
When the other members failed to subdue and control the wild werewolves who were wreaking havoc inside their headquarters, the team sought help from their CEO, Alpha Cedric.
Because of that Cedric\'s peaceful sleep in his private villa was interrupted. By the time he arrived at Triple W Headquarters, lots of damage had been done.
He could see the shattered glasses, damaged properties, destroyed walls, and broken equipment inside the infirmary and other areas where the fight between werewolves and witches happened.
He didn\'t expect to have this extent of destruction. The impact was too immense which was caused only by four werewolves who were supposed to be lying on their sickbeds because of their injuries.
"What the hell did you do here? Can\'t you even capture and subdue four injured werewolves when they went on a rampage?" Cedric said with his stern cold voice, his eyes scanning the area as he assessed the damages.
The members who escorted Cedric inside felt frightened and uneasy under his scrutiny and icy glares. He was like a raging volcano that was about to erupt at any moment.
"Forgive us, Alpha. They suddenly became powerful as if they didn\'t have any injuries. Three to five times stronger than their usual strength. This is the main reason we encountered difficulty in putting them under control..." he paused for a moment upon seeing the furious look on Cedric\'s face as he deemed them useless.
"A-According to the witches… they are under a vampire\'s mind control power." One werewolf explained to him with his cautious words. He didn\'t want to anger Cedric further but he had to report what truly happened.
His jaw clenched and anger flickered in his eyes as he heard that. Again! A bloodsucker did this!
Just this morning, another werewolf was put under a vampire\'s mind control, breaking the prison cells in the underground dungeon and attacking Cedric.
That werewolf was beaten into pulp by his Alpha. But knowing he was under the control of a vampire, Cedric restrained himself from killing the werewolf.
Who would have thought that the four werewolf fighters would also cause another trouble tonight?
"Where. Are. They?" Cedric asked them as he couldn\'t see the four werewolves. Were they still roaming around the area, bringing chaos in the different corners of their headquarters?
It did not take long when one witch dashed in their direction, greeting and welcoming Cedric. She made a slight bow before she reported something to him.
"Alpha Cedric, the werewolves had been captured. They just suddenly collapsed while we were trying to restrain them. They were still breathing but they were totally out. I guess the vampire already stopped controlling them when they suddenly passed out!"
When Kira collapsed, those werewolves were released from his control.
"Lead me to them," he just simply said, narrowing his eyes at everyone.
The witch and the other werewolves made a path for Cedric, leading him to see the werewolves who caused great destruction in their headquarters tonight.
Cedric\'s anger had not subsided yet when he heard another piece of bad news from the newcomers. Cedric and his companion were on the way to see the werewolf fighters when they were approached by the two guards assigned in the underground dungeon.
Upon reaching Cedric\'s spot, they fell on their knees right away, their heads dropped, almost touching the floor. They haven\'t told him the bad news yet but their bodies were already covered by cold sweats. They kept staring down in frightened despair.
"Alpha… w-we have another piece of... b-bad news," one guard spoke with his trembling voice.
A furrow cut in between his eyebrows as Cedric looked down, waiting for them to tell him everything. "What bad news?"
"The v-vampire... p-prisoners–"
"For goodness\'s sake! Can\'t you both speak clearly! Or do you want me to straighten your tongue?!!" Cedric was already feeling impatient and annoyed.
"Alpha Cedric! The vampire prisoners escape! All of them!"
"WHAT?!!"
Not only Alpha Cedric, but everyone there was flabbergasted upon hearing that. How could that happen?
Seconds later, they exchanged looks at each other as the realization struck them.
\'No way! Does it mean, the werewolves\' rampage a while ago was just a diversion? The main objective of the vampire who controlled the werewolves was to save the vampire prisoners!\'
With his werewolf speed, Cedric rushed to the underground dungeon. The prison cells were now destroyed and empty. All vampire prisoners were gone! What caught his attention the most was the big hole Kira created when he punched the wall from the outside.
It did not take long when a loud growl reverberated in the dungeon! Cedric was freaking so mad that he was not able to control himself from transforming into his wolf form!
Howling!
Kira defeated him over and over again but this Alpha was still clueless about who did all of this. The person responsible was still unknown to him. That was the most depressing part!
*****
[ Safe Haven Resto-Bar… ]
The other vampires who were hanging out in that resto-bar couldn\'t believe that the prisoners were able to escape from Triple W. Though they were injured, all of them were alive.
"Quick! Let\'s feed them! Take our blood supply from the storage room to replenish their strength!" The owner of the resto-bar commanded his staff.
"Those who have healing potions, please share some with your fellow vampires! Prioritize the ones who have severe injuries!"
While others were moving in urgency, tending their wounded comrades, some of them were not able to hold their curiosity as they asked them how they were able to escape.
"Did the werewolves let you go? Or did that vampire surrender?"
"No! Werewolves will never do that! Of course, someone rescued us! A strong vampire! He is called Nightwalker!"
"Yes! That\'s true. He is very cool. Too bad we didn\'t see his face as he covered it with a black mask!"
"But one thing is for sure… that vampire is the same vampire who defeated those four werewolves in the Northleaf Timberland Forest!"
"He is like our new hope! The Nightwalker is our new hero! We owe him our lives!"
On that same night, the name \'Nightwalker\' and his good deeds spread like a wildfire among the vampires, igniting their fighting spirits and giving them another hope!
