Woah you guys have been amazing, thanks a lot for the power stones.
"Leonard?, didn't the council declare him untouchable for the next few months?, at least that's what I heard from a credible source." She said with a raised brow taking a seat opposite Jared who grinned slightly hearing her words, revealing his elongated fangs while tapping the edge of his seat.
"I'm thirsty Natasha, get me my specialty," he said his voice as emotionless as ever as he blatantly ignored her earlier question, Natasha nodding her head in understanding waved her slender hands to summon a servant nearby who in quick steps made way towards her ready to carry out her order at a moment notice.
"Would she suffice?." she questioned the Alpha who gazed piercingly at the servant girl with blonde hair and delicate looks, she looked good for a servant girl he thought, however, her physical looks were not what he was interested in, his Interest was in something much more sinister.
"Yes she would, come over here darling," he said with a smile gesturing for the servant girl to walk towards him
"What are you waiting for move!" she half yelled at the servant girl who whimpered and jolted in shock before hesitantly walking towards Jared whose sinister grin widened even further with her approaching steps.
"Sit," he spoke firmly tapping his lap which the servant girl hesitantly obliged to, taking in a few strands of her hair and sniffing its rosery wafting scent he smiled before directing his gaze back to Natasha all the while with the servant girl shuddering uncontrollably in fright at his presence, however knowing her low and worthless position being a servant she knew better than to voice her complaints or refuse his demands.
"They did." he spoke getting back to her earlier question, his hands on the thighs of the servant girl who felt irritated with his firm touch on her skin "That is why I'm asking you to do it, Natasha, you are easily the best lycan hunter right now, I'm sure you'd be able to deal with my dear little brother without leaving behind anything that traces back to me."
"Flatteries to get what you want....still as cunning as ever Jared...you should know those tricks don't work on me," she said with a smile.
The lycan huntress Natasha was known as the last of the Ivanov family descendent, a family famed for being the hunters of Lycanthropes for over a thousand years, albeit human the family had specialized weaponry and tools which gave them equal footings in battling the Lycanthropes, their techniques and discovery passed as a tradition to the next generation with Natasha being the last surviving member of the family.
"I'll pay you handsomely for this Natasha...name your price."
"Even if I was to agree to this, there's no way I'll be able to infiltrate the school without Alexander finding out, he probably has spells casted by witches around the school parameter to alert him on any intrusion," she said with a frown
"I'm sure you'd have your way around that problem like you always do," he said nonchalantly earning a loud sigh from Natasha
"I get to name the price?." she asked after a few minutes of considering his offer
"Of course and besides don't act like you wouldn't love killing my dear brother, we both know you want revenge for the death of your younger brother," he said leaning backward earning a dangerously narrowed gaze from Natasha who felt an intense surge of anger towards Leonard.
Three years ago her brother Amos was hired by Jared to assassinate Leon which unfortunately went south as her brother ended up being killed instead by Leonard who had brutally beheaded him and sent his head back to her with the mocking letter
"sorry but he went 'Ahead' of me to the afterlife don't worry Jared would be joining him soon, he won't be lonely for long"
she couldn't deny the truth behind Jared's cunning words, this was indeed personal for her, she sought revenge, she needed revenge.
"Very well, how do you want him to die, do you want it to be slow or quick?." she asked earning a peal of eerie laughter from Jared
"I'll leave that to you, do with him as you please, all that matters is you kill him soon after," he spoke coldly sniffing the neck of the servant girl who felt was going to pass out anytime soon with the way her heartbeat fluctuated vigorously in fear.
"okay baby boy." she said with a smile "Don't you ever wonder why Leonard chose St Donavan? it doesn't make any sense, it's almost as if he is searching for death."
"My brother is smart, I'm sure he has his reasons, do not underestimate him," he spoke seriously before gently placing his thumb on the servant's girl's chin tilting her head to his watch.
"I bet you'd taste delicious," he said with a smile and without a moment's notice sank his fangs into the neck of the servant girl who screamed, wiggled and thrashed around in pain trying to free herself from his tightened grip however it was all futile as the man before she was no ordinary man but an Alpha with Donavan blood running through his veins.
Jared Donavan with his reddened eyes drank the unlucky servant's blood until she had been drained completely with her lifeless body slumping hard on the floor when Jared released his grip on her, the few servants present although with a calm facade expressed on their faces, their mind nonetheless was in complete distraught as they had never once heard about a lycan who fed on blood before, it was simply unnatural and quite disgusting, still, they kept their calm facade as they could only offer prayers for the unfortunate servant girl hoping she was now in a much better place, one she deserved.
"Not a word of this to anyone," Natasha warned the servants on standby who immediately nodded in understanding, the lycan huntress was one of the few people who knew about Jared's weird habit of feeding on the blood of creatures, it was simply a testament and affirmation to the tales of his ruthlessness, some even going as far to nickname him the devil.
Still, this was a secret Jared chose to keep in the dark as he needed supporters in order to win his brother and become the next undisputed alpha.
"Enjoyed your meal?." she asked with a smile
"Yes it was delicious, I'll be leaving now," he said standing up and wiping his bloodied hand with a clean white handkerchief.
"Leaving already, don't you want to play with the little toy in the dungeon," she said with a pout disappointment evident on her face
"Some other time Natasha, I have somewhere important to be," he said placing a deep erotic kiss on her lips before slowly pulling away to see her flushed face
"Do not fail me, Natasha," he said firmly running his thumb across her red cheeks
"I won't." she spoke firmly "In the next few weeks there would be only one son left in the Donavan family," she said with a smile gazing in admiration at the man she had loved for years Jared, her smile looking as dangerous as her sick twisted mind.
PS: there won't be much Jared Donavan scenes in the first volume of The lycan Academy, he'd be introduced as one of the main characters in the second volume of this novel.
