The Alpha's Contractual Human Mate

Unedited 18

“What do you mean they are after me?” I asked in bewilderment. “I didn't do anything to them or I didn't know them at all.” I laughed at her trying to be humurous as possible but she didn't laughed at me. Danica just stared at me with seriousness, she fastly advanced her legs one by one and opened the door. I thought she will leave me in an instant resulting me to ran in her direction but she raised her palm to make me stop.

From the distance, I heard her murmuring with the guards. I tried listening but I can't totally understand what they are talking.

After few words they exchanged, Danica walked back inside and strangely look at me. “Don't worry, I'll stay with you.” She announced making me felt safe for a moment. She walked on the window again to check the perimeters and the distance her sight and hearing can go beyond.

I walked swaying my hands and sometimes stopping to stretch my body. I caress the bump in my stomach and prayed not to get involved in whatever they might be fighting or the two teams aim to get.

“Dion already know it?” I asked with a low voice and Danica nodded her head while her eyes are still fixed and focused outside.

“Yes, they are preparing for counterattack and still guarding the teen wolves for their shifting process. We can't stop it even if we wanted. The full moon will come in no time.” She worriedly stated that made me worried on Dion too. It's been a while when I saw Dion the first time, he's a playboy but gentleman. I can't imagine that the party boy and who doesn't want the responsibility suddenly came fortune.

Ace POV

I began dealing with opponents after ensuring Ariella's safety. I had a feeling something was wrong earlier when we looked at anyone's eues, but I ignored it because it was a public place. I assumed they wouldn't attack because they were worried about Mr.'s intestines being blocked. And so forth.

"ACE!" I heard someone say somewhere. I hide in one of the kid's stores, fitting myself between the shelves.

"ACE!" said a woman's voice this time. Oh, those are familiar voices.

I completely forgot about Nica and Stewart, whom we met earlier. I emerged from my hiding spot, but a man entered the store, forcing me to return to my hiding spot. a few yells

The other man behind the cashier counter shoots at me, but I quickly hide in one of the small cellphone shops. I jumped on its counter, causing me to crash to the ground. Oh my god, this hurts. I raised my hand, the gun resting on my palm. While still laying on the cold floor, I pulled the trigger on the gun and fired it at the men. I pouted all of its bullets until they were gone. I dropped it and threw it to the side, drawing my handgun. I rolled across the ground to get to the other side of the building.

"Raise your hand!" exclaimed one of the two men, pointing his gun at my head. What did I do?

"If you're lucky, the prize for this one's head is also large," one of them said. I returned my gaze to their habit, forcing them to see the entire area with stars. I kicked the man in the jaw with all of my strength, while the other gripped the gun in his hands tightened until it was white. I heard two gunshots and both bodies fell. Tsk, they spoil me with its untimely demise.

"Ace, are you all right?" Nica inquired as she approached my location. I quickly move in my direction, dusting my hands.

"I'm fine," I snarled through clenched teeth, my gaze never leaving the dead bodies.
