1648 Words
Chapter 16  “I’m sorry, Olie. But mommy has some business left to do here okay?” Caramella cooed at her son who was clinging to her like a baby Koala. He is too adorable for her but right now is not the time to praise him for his adorable looks. “But I just saw you again mommy, I don’t want to stay here” Oliver pleaded, “I want to go with mommy” She looked at Victor, asking for help with her eyes, “Look, uncle Vitor here will be with you okay? He will protect you and I will come look for you with Darius later” ‘Wait, why did I think of Darius?’ she shook her head. “Daddy is coming with you later?” Oliver asked hopefully with sparkling eyes, peeking through her dress that he is clinging onto. ‘Oliver, your cuteness is too unfair!’ “Yes, Olie. I’ll drag him with me if I have to” she promised, feeling like she’ll regret it later but she can’t say no to her son anyway. Oliver looks elated, grinning from ear to ear as he hugged his mother lovingly, pecking her on the cheek. “Yay! Daddy will be with us again!” he hooted, jumping for joy as he willingly went towards Victor who only sighed in response. “Shall we go?” Lenard asked Caramella who stood up from her kneeling position and cracked her knuckles. “If the pincer attack works upstairs, this is going to be easy” she said before an explosion nearby blew off, tilting the whole ship sidewards and making them wobbly on their knees. Victor quickly grabbed Oliver to steady the boy. Lenard ran towards the window and peeked outside, his eyes widening at the sight of a large a*s wolf fighting against a large beefy white werewolf. “Looks like they started fighting” he pointed out the obvious, his head reeling in possibilities that his husband might now be less guarded than before. Now, they can save Judiah easier. … The sun has risen and Darius’ uncle, Darrendel Avagoth, has transformed into his wolf form. His uncle’s part of the security team has managed to secure the back part of the ship and managed to quickly subjugate the other leaders who are managing the werewolves. Darius also cleared up the front part of the ship, saving most of the stranded guests who are hiding in their rooms. The only problem now is taking back the captain’s quarters where the strongest werewolves are camping with hostages, and that’s where their pincer attack comes to play. “The sun is already here” Darius is standing at the deck they just cleared up and the amount of werewolf bodies on the floor is overwhelming and suspicious. ‘It's impossible for this amount of werewolves to enter the security without help from the inside. There must be a traitor inside the family’ he thought, scrunching his eyebrows together. “The werewolves might surrender then” Frowen covered his nose, looking down on a werewolf dressed in a suit that’s been bitten and pelted with silver bullets, “They have no chance to retreat since we are surrounded by ocean” Darius nodded, “But I’m still puzzled…why in the world are they doing this? Its practically a suicide mission” Frowen couldn’t answer that because it's true. Werewolves don't have a chance against the Lycans. Not only are there many Lycans on the ship, they only started attacking when the sun was almost up. It's very suspicious and Darius has a bad feeling about all of this. ‘The smoke they let out a while ago and the confidence they are showing even if the sun is already rising…what could all this mean?’ Darius frowned, “All available units! Get ready to attack as soon as Master Darrendel and his men scare out the werewolves in the captain’s quarters! We must intercept them without fail!” he exclaimed. All of the remaining security and able bodied Lycans lined up at the edge of the bow of the ship, guns ready while the others transformed to their wolf form and watched the situation. They all look tense, probably because this skirmish of a war has cost them. Many Lycans out there lost their lives but there are more innocent humans who have been unfortunate enough to be killed in between this war. “Let’s hope this pincer attack is the last of them” Darius furrowed his eyebrows, ‘And I hope that Caramella found Oliver and they are both safe’ he thought. Shaking his head of all of his worries, he cleared his mind to focus on leading his own people. Everything is just as planned at the moment. The people who are left in the safe zone that they conquered are all still safe in the dining room with a few capable guards and those that can still fight are now silently waiting for the attack to commence. He can see his uncle on the upper floor, evident by the ship shaking and the large wolf that was towering over the smaller werewolves whose fear he can smell. “Hold your positions” He commanded and raised a hand, his eyes shifting towards the sun that was already almost halfway through. The orange and yellow hue covers the entire ocean and sky. ‘This is going to be over as soon as they transform back to their human forms’ Darius thought, ‘I can finally see them again’ Then, the sun finally rose completely, ending the night and starting the day. He was supposed to command his troops to attack, but what he witnessed is impossible. The Lycans around him also showed shock and distress, growling and glancing towards him who was just as surprised as everyone was. That’s because- “They didn’t turn back to their human forms” Frowen mumbled in shock next to him, “That’s impossible” And yet, the impossible is right in front of them. The werewolves who are inside the captain’s quarters are smirking at them whilst basking at the ray of the rising sun. As they are not fully blessed by the Luna, they are supposed to not have their supernatural powers during the day. “HA! You think we’ll surrender just like that?!” A loud voice coming from the inside of the captain’s quarters boomed on the silent ship, “Times have changed!” A large white werewolf who is wearing a fanciful white suit with golden lining, grinned down on those who were waiting at the lower floor. Behind him are many more werewolves holding a g*n, ready to shoot them at any given time. “Did you really think we’ll wage a war we can’t win?” The white werewolf continued as werewolves with guns lined up behind him. Darrendel and his men are facing the werewolves as they speak, his uncle showing his large fangs that could tear the white werewolf apart in seconds. 'This…How can this be!?' Darrendel was just as shocked as the rest of the Lycans are, his large wolf mouth agape. The white werewolf laughed loudly along with the other werewolves who are coming out of the captain's quarters. They are holding out guns and some of them and dragging out the hostages with him. "Crap" Darius cursed, eyeing the captain of the ship; Judiah Powell, one of the most important Lycans in their family. "Wait, now that I think about it. Sir Lenard has been missing since he escorted Lady Sugar" Frozen pointed out, "Could he have gone with Lady Sugar to save his husband?" Darius clicked his tongue, but inside he felt slightly relieved. 'If Lenard is with Caramella, then she's going to be a lot safer than her being alone. I did let Lenard go with her in hopes that they would go together…' he found himself slightly blushing, 'Why did I even think of her safety? We're not even that close…' BANG! The loud gunshot shook him out of his thoughts, making him look back up towards his uncle who dodged the bullet by shifting to the right. Darrendel growled and used his mind to talk to everyone, 'Are you really going to fight us like this? You dirty half breeds' The white werewolf smirked, "You call us dirty but you are the dogs who started this war with your condescending actions towards us" then he raised a hand with what looks like a metal cylinder with a neon green rim around the middle. The werewolves around did the same. "Thats-" Darius saw that container before…it's the one that's been releasing the gas that could make Lycans weaker. "Everyone! Attack! Don't let them use those! Uncle!" He exclaimed, pointing abruptly towards the werewolves. But the Lycans are still hesitating because of the hostages. 's**t! This is bad!' That's when the unexpected happened. CRACK…BANG! "This is for separating me from my child, YOU BASTARDS!" The window from the captain's quarters broke with a loud bang and two werewolves came flying. And landing on the deck with grace and ferocity was Caramella Sugar who is still wearing a beautiful black dress that glistened under the rising sun, her long fiery red hair waving behind her which she swept upwards. She c****d a g*n and shot the werewolf holding the captain as hostage while everyone is still stunned. Darius can't help but smile, "ATTACK!" He screamed and this time, there was no hesitation. 'This is why I like her!' he thought, pumping his fist on the air only to realize what he's done, '...no, no. I'm still not sure if she's the woman I spent the night with…I should control this feelings" Frowell saw the whole thing and was embarrassed for his boss.
