Chapter 19 - I didn't save you because I wanted to...

Alison sat in the taxi nervously, she held the phone in her hand tightly and looked forward as the driver drove.

"Driver, pull over!'' Alison said when she saw the signpost. She paid the driver and got down from the car immediately.

Alison entered the building and stood at the entrance. She looked around at the building and found everything strange. The place was usually quiet.

"This… where the hell am I?'' Alison muttered and turned to leave but the place went blackout suddenly and she heard a voice coming from the stairs.

"Hi, Alison. We finally meet?'' Liam said as he walked down the stairs towards Alison.

Alison brushed her hair backwards and stepped back before asking, 'who are you?''

"Me? I am your fated one!'' Liam replied and laughed. He got down from the stairs and the lights came back on. He took a few steps and stood in front of Alison.

"Are you the one who took Alonso?''

"Why? You seem to really care about that pig. Did he suddenly become your family after staying with you for a few days?'' Liam smirked.

"You have Alonso, where is he?''

"You don't seem to be afraid of me, human girl.''

Alison looked at Liam and removed her phone saying, "just wait here, I'm calling the police. If this is a prank, you will pay for it.'' Alison was about to dial the police short code and the phone left her hands. She looked up and saw the phone suspending in the air.

Alison stepped back and looked at Liam asking, "you… who are you?''

"Scared? No need to be afraid. I won't hurt you… well, at least not now.'' Liam said and turned, giving his back to Alison.

"What… what do you want from me? Where is Alonso?''

Liam turned at once and the color of his eyes turned to red. He chuckled and Alison saw his canine teeth coming out.

Alison fell to the floor and moved backwards as Liam walked towards her.

"I told you not to be scared. I won't harm you, beautiful!'' Liam squatted and ran his palm down Alison's cheeks. "I could never harm you, Alison. You are my mate!''

Alison looked at Liam with a strange gaze the moment he touched her. She felt a burning sensation on where he touched her.

"If you agree to marry me, I might spare that pig. But if you don't, then I might just eat him up and you will never see him again.''

Alison frowned and suddenly chuckled. She stood up and dusted her hands before taking her handkerchief out. She started wiping the place Liam touched as she spoke.

"I get it now!''

"What do you get?''

"People like you suffer from mental illness and that is called delusion. But, I've seen a lot of things while growing up. Did you think a few tricks of magic could faze me? You made my phone fly out of my hands to scare me, right? My nanny granny always told me to be careful with tricksters, I can't believe I fell for that.''

"What is she talking about?'' Liam muttered and was taken aback when he felt a sharp pain between his legs. He touched his manhood and screamed out in pain.

Alison used that chance to snatch her phone and turned to run but she bumped right into someone else and fell.

"Elder sister, are you alright?'' Alonso bent down and asked Alison with a worried gaze.

Alison nodded and Alonso helped her to sit up. She suffered from a little nosebleed and Alonso used her handkerchief to wipe it off.

"You never learn, Liam. Have many times have you being warned to stay away from what belongs to Lord Walden? She belongs to Walden''

"This isn't over, Boaz!'' Liam said and ran up the stairs.

Boaz turned to look at Alison and asked, 'are you alright?''

"Yes, I'm fine. Thank you for saving me.''

"I didn't save you because I wanted to.''

"Ooh...'' Alison looked at Boaz's face and recognized him. but little did she know that he wasn't the person she thought he was. Back at the office, that was Owen teasing her but now, this was Boaz.

"What? Do you have something to say, human girl?'' Boaz asked, sounding cold and distance.

"No!'' Alison shook her head.

"Take her home...'' Boaz said before vanishing.

"Did… did he just…'' Alison didn't finish her question before she fainted.

"Aye, what an elder sister I have'' Alonso muttered and carried Alison out of the building.

….

Two people, a male and a female were following two men subtly as they walked towards the electricity room. The lights in the factory had suddenly gone off so they were on their way to check the meter.

"Are they messing with us? How can the light go off suddenly?'' one of the men said to the other.

"I know, right? If we don't get all the orders ready before tomorrow, it is going to be a big problem.'' the other said before sensing something strange. He turned and looked behind them but didn't see anyone.

"What is it? Why do you keep looking behind us?''

"Old Huo, don't you find it strange? It's as if someone or something is behind us. I have a bad feeling.''

"Aye, you are such a softie. What could possibly behind… old Fu, what is that thing?'' Old Huo asked when he saw a beastly like creature at the end of the big machines surrounding them.

"A monster, it's a monster. Run, old Huo!'' Old Fu said but before they could run, the two beastly creatures moved very fast and were standing in front of them.

With eyes that were as red as the beetroot, they stood tall in front of them, with their fangs out.

"After these two, we have just two seven more people to eat before we become fully human.'' the female creature said as she stared at the two men with a glee.

"How about I let you feast on these. That will make five for you. When we get the next barge, I can feast on them too.''

"You seem to have everything planned out. But what to do? It won't be under my watch. This city still belongs to me.'' Walden said from a distance and the two beasts turned. They roared angrily when they saw Walden.
