Chapter 149 - Ambush

"Hey Aunt, I have a question" said Evie as she sat on Bella's bed, Evie and Bella were together in Bella's room and Evie was helping Bella tidy up her clothes like a good little niece.

"Ask it my dear" said Bella as she folded her shirt.

"Okay soo, you have to promise to answer me, no matter what okay?" asked Evie as she took the folded shirt that Bella handed her and she put it nicely in the closet.

"Haha Of course my dear, what is it? you are scaring me?" asked Bella as she laughed.

"Haha okay okay Aunt" said Evie

"So Aunt, you know Uncle Jake right?" asked Evie

"Yes of course I do" said Bella as she folded a pair of jeans

"Well, I don't think it's only me that notices, but he acts weird whenever you are around" said Evie

"Weird like how?" asked Bella

"Well Uncle Jake is usually always happy when he's around us, but when you come along, he goes back to being cold and angry, you cannot tell me that you also do not notice it" said Evie as she held her Aunt's blue blouse in her hand.

"Ahh my dear, you are so smart" said Bella as she smiled

"Yes yes I am" said Evie proudly

"But you still have no answered my question" said Evie

"Okay okay, I will" said Bella as she sat down next to Evie

"So me and your Uncle both met at the same time your parents met, we even met a few seconds earlier"

"Haha Aunt, a few seconds?" laughed Evie

"Yes, a few seconds, you see my dear, your mom and I may or may not have snuck to a vampires only midnight party" said Bella as she smiled

"What?? I knew but Aunt this is between me and you" said Evie as she looked to the left and right as if they were being watched.

"Who's Idea was it to sneak out?" asked Evie as she whispered in her Aunt's ear.

"Ahh, well that would be my Idea" said Bella

"Your mom, was too much of a goody two shoes to ever go there on her own if not that I convinced her to go along with me" said Bella as she smiled.

"Ahh Aunt how did you convince her?" asked Evie

"Well my dear, I said that if I went alone and something bad happened to me, it would be her fault for leaving me to go alone, and also she was as curious as I was about the Vampires hehe" said Bella

"Ahh Aunt, you are a genius" said Evie

"Of course I am" said Bella

"Now back to the story" said Bella

"So long story short, me and Jacob danced together in the moonlight, it was the most wonderful thing, until your father went looking for your mom and found out that she was not a vampire and neither was I and from that day on Jacob stopped liking me" said Bella

"What that is not enough reason for Uncle to stop liking you just because you are a different race" said Evie

"Haha my dear, one thing you must know about your Uncle is that he is a principled man, he never beds the rules for no one, including himself, that's one of the things that I like about him, but at the same time, it stops him from enjoying his life" said Bella

"He is a very loyal man, and he's also a man of integrity, you should never hate your Uncle, he is a good man, watch him very carefully and take the good parts that you see in him, just don't be as cold hearted and poker faced as he is" laughed Bella

"Hah Aunt, I will, but that still doesn't explain why he avoids you like a plague" said Evie

"Well I do not know about that, but he considers me a hazard, he says that I am irresponsible and too playful and he says that I am a child" said Bella as she sighed.

"I am the exact opposite of him, and maybe that's why he hates me" said Bella

"Or Loves you" said Evie under her breath

"Hmm what did you say dear?" asked Bella

"I said, he might Love you" said Evie

"Haha my dear, what a broad imagination you have there" laughed Bella

"No Aunt it's true, I have watched many movies and tv shows where the man who acts so cold and angry is actually very loving" said Evie as she was deep in thought.

"Haha my girl, you watch too much tv, that is impossible" said Bella

"Anyway enough of that, my dear let's get back to folding clothes" said Bella as she ruffled Evie's hair

"Okay Aunt, Okay, but don't count that possibility out" said Evie

"Sure my dear" said Bella as she smiled, and Evie smiled back.

Meanwhile in the Human World

Azazel seemed to be getting ready for something.

"Clove I am going to the Witch Realm to meet Stella, this time, I expect you to stay at home and do not go anywhere or else." said Azazel in his usual cold tone

"I will be going now" said Azazel as he left and closed the door behind him.

Meanwhile Outside the Wolf Manor, the Rouge Vampires were talking and laughing until Azazel came.

"Ahh Master, what can we do for you?" asked Liam as he bowed, there were still bandages on his side from what happened last time, Liam was still trying to butter Azazel up.

"Liam, you already know where I am going so stop the pretense" said Azazel plainly, his statement caused Liam's smile to waver.

"Anyway, I am going to the Witch Realm, you all accompany me to the Witch Gate and go nowhere else" said Azazel coldly

"Yes Master" said the Rouges

"Good, now let us proceed" said Azazel.

The Witch Gate in Sunset Village was in the deep Forest, it was heavily guarded by Witches by day and by night, there was a barrier upon it that stopped humans from discovering it.

"He's on his way" said a Witch with a black cloak.

"Everyone Prepare yourselves" said a familiar Witch, it was none other than Mira

"He's here" shouted Another Witch.

Everyone present there had their hearts pounding with fear and anticipation, they had all heard horror stories of how Azazel had killed millions of witches single-handedly and now he was coming in the name of peace. it was just too unbelievable.

Finally who they had been waiting for had arrived, he had an aloof cold look on his face that could easily scare anyone.

"Azazel, please follow us" said Mira as she took action

"But those things cannot follow us, and they cannot stay around here either" said Mira

Liam looked at Mira with contempt and looked at Azazel.

"It is fine boys, go back and do not cause any trouble" said Azazel and with that he entered the Witch Gate without saying anything, and Mira followed at a safe distance behind him.

In less that 10 seconds they had reached the Witch Realm, the sun was still shining brightly as per the agreement Azazel came in the day time.

About 5 Witches along with Mira followed closely behind Azazel as they made their way to the Palace.

Before they Entered the Palace there were some security guards standing in front of the Palace door.

"I'm sorry Sir but we need to search you" said One young Guard that stopped Azazel from proceeding further.

"Boy you better put that hand of yours back before I chop it off" said Azazel

That statement made the guard scared and he gulped hard.

"Do you not trust me I am here for a meeting and nothing more" said Azazel, the silence he received was the answer to his question.

Azazel just ignored all of them and made his way into the Castle.

"Ahh Stella long time now see" said Azazel as he smiled a creepy smile

"Azazel follow me" said Stella as she led him to her office.

Meanwhile in the Vampire Realm

Evening had come and the Sun was starting to set.

Annie, Maddie, Evie, Matt, Kaylee, Levi, Frankie, Mark, Ellie, and Cellie were together in the Lounge, relaxing the fire place was lit and it made the Lounge feel warm and comfy.

Noey had already gone to sleep, as he was very tired from the Camping trip before.

"Helloo everyone" said Bella as she entered the room.

"Hi Aunt Bella" they replied

"So what is everyone doing?" asked Bella

"Well Nothing much just lounging" said Evie

"Haha Okay" said Bella

"Hey Aunt Belle, have you seen my mom and Dad?" asked Annie

"Haha yes I have, they went on a double date with Lucy and Luke, I stayed behind because I didn't want to be a third wheel" said Bella

"Ahh Okay" said Annie

Just then Jacob came into the room.

"Hi Uncle Jake" said Matt and the rest of the children.

"Hello Everyone, have you seen Lucas?" he asked.

"Oooh him and Luc went on a dinner date with Lisa and John" replied Bella, but Jacob ignored her and said

"Okay"

At the moment a solider quickly entered the Lounge and bowed

"Sir, The troops are already dispatched in the forest, will you be joining them?" asked the Soldier.

"Yes, Tell them to wait, I will be there soon" said Jacob as he replied with authority and the Soldier left.

"Well I will see you guys later, my troops need me" said Jacob

"Okay Bye Uncle Jake" said the Children

"Wait I'm coming with you" said Bella as she took her coat off the rack and wore it.

"What, No you cannot" said Jacob coldly

"I never asked, anyway we need to talk" said Bella as she walked ahead of Jacob leaving him in the dust

"Bye Aunt" said Evie as she saw the leaving behinds of her Uncle and Aunt.

Before Long Jacob and Bella had reached the Forest, Bella rode in the Carriage while Jacob ran quickly to the site with his Vampire powers.

"Sir,the area has been secured and there is nothing harmful that we have seen here" said a soldier

"Good, everyone stand at ease" said Jacob as he commanded

Bella had arrived at the scene and she walked over to where Jacob was standing, while also receiving scrutinizing gazes from the observing soldiers.

"Who is this woman?" they asked themselves as they had never seen their Commander with any woman, and the appearance of this one was a shock, and she even had the audacity to walk up to their commander like it was nothing.

As Bella made her way to Jacob, a guard stopped her before she could move further.

"Please Move" said Bella but the soldier did not move.

"Jake, tell your soldier to let me pass" said Bella calmly

"What this woman even had the effrontery to call their commander by his name" thought the soldiers in disbelief.

Jacob looked up from the file he was reading and waved the guard to let her through, because he knew that if he did not Bella would cause a nuisance there and embarrass him.

"Hmm" said Bella proudly as she looked at the shocked face of the soldier

"Why are you here?" asked Jacob coldly

"Well didn't you hear me? I said that we need to talk" said Bella

"Talk about what exactly?" asked Jacob

"Well you know" said Bella

"No I do not know" said Jacob as he feigned ignorance

"Fine then, it's about us" said Bella plainly

"What about us? last time I checked there was no us" said Jacob as he didn't look at Bella and kept checking the File he had in his hand.

"Fine Jake you can continue to be difficult, but I am not going anywhere" said Bella as she crossed her arms over her chest.

Just then as Bella said that, there was a sound of an explosion in a near distance not so far from their location, and everyone became alert, Until another explosion sounded closer to their location and Jacob shouted

"Ambush!"
