Chapter 19
“Do you really think that I am going to flinch just because you are acting all too intimidating? Well, I’m sorry to say this, but I am used to these kinds of things and you are not scaring me at all.” My eyes squinted as I looked at them… specifically at Mabelle, very firmly. I took a step forward, starting to close the gap between us. She also wouldn’t even budge and she is just looking at me with her death glare along with her friends
Mabelle and I are only a few inches away. She put her arms across her chest and started to continuously tap her foot. Afterwards, she smirked and rolled her eyes upwards and before she could even say a word, I warped behind her just in a blink of an eye which made all of them astounded.
“You’re used to bullying people who you know are not going to retaliate. But what if I slash your throat until you swim in your own blood? This hall would definitely be bloody red by the time the Annual pack gathering comes. Can you even do anything about it to defend yourself?” I told Mabelle in a cold and low tone of voice while my lips were too close to her ear. My eyes just stared at the wall blankly and I felt like it changed colors.
I can sense that Mabelle’s pale colourless skin just triggered goosebumps and she is now currently shaking. The entire hall was suddenly filled with dead silence until one of her friends just took her hands and pulled her out of the hall.
“Let’s go, Mabelle. She must be just trying to act tough in front of us to cover up her fear.” She told her while they were walking away.
“Yes, she’s right. We’ll take a score on her once and for all. Just wait, you skunk.” Another girl commented while Mabelle is only ignoring them. It must be a real shock to her that I moved too fast and I am not expecting for her to act that way.
To be honest, I just acted according to my intuition and who would have thought that it would mummify her?
With all that being said, I continued to roam around and check on the venue. “Everything is glammed up and perfectly fine.” I told myself while walking and appreciating the decorations. Just by looking at it, I can immediately say that this costs a lot. From the preparation, efforts for finding these luxurious flowers, decorations and other equipment to the overall standing.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
*THUD!*
“Oops!” I suddenly squeaked when I heard the door banging close and I heard continuous footsteps coming exactly from behind me.
I instantly looked back and I saw a very tall and young guy with a very perfect smile on his lips approaching me. Who is this guy? He seems really nice, but looks can be very deceiving, right?
I just looked at him and waited for him to utter his words.
Krisna’s POV
The guy remained smiling the moment he reached my spot. Why is he being very mysterious all of a sudden? Who is this guy?
A moment after, he slowly put up his hands and started giving me applause. My forehead automatically creased since I found it very odd. What? A stranger just walked inside a room with a big smile on his face, stopping in front of them, then gave me applause? Who wouldn’t find that very odd, huh? Isn’t that being too awkward?
“Who are you, mister?” I can’t help but ask him instead. He’s making my mind blown up.
It took him a while before he could even say his first words until he let out a sigh, and his smile remained. “I saw the whole thing through that open door, and what you did back there was very satisfying. I congratulate you.” He told me in a calm tone of voice. Well, without lying to myself, I find his voice very reassuring, and he absolutely sounded really nice and friendly.
My head is in a state of confusion at the moment. He is absolutely acting as if we are very close to each other when this is the first time for me to see him. It seems like he finally realized that he was too unaware of our situation, so he handed me over his hand, ready to be shaken. “My name is Greco, and I’m Grant’s Beta. It’s nice meeting you here.” He said with a princely posture and attitude. Grant’s Beta? Hm, he must have lots of good-looking Beta warriors in his pack, eh? I’m just kidding.
I struck a look at his hand, which I found very smooth and puffy, then back at his face. “The name’s Krisna.” I introduced myself then shook hands with him eventually.
“You actually look pretty good when I’m up close, but don’t get me wrong, okay? I also find you beautiful all the way from there.” He commented with a sly smile on his face. He looks really young, and yet he can drop a bomb like that?
“Aren’t you being too familiar with me? We just met a minute ago, but you sounded like you already knew my entire life.” I told him with a fierce look on my face, but my voice had a sarcastic tone.
His facial expression changed, and it turned somewhat vicious. He smiled at me, then suddenly barged in to push me with his left hand. I took a few steps back, but I know that push is not normal. If it were another person, maybe they would have hit the wall behind me already, but it is good that I managed to control the friction from my feet to stop me after taking a few steps back.
He looks unbothered by what he did and just continues to walk in my direction. What? Is he an enemy? I thought he was an ally, but why would he do that? As soon as he reached my spot, I did not think twice to grab his right hand and let him run through my back and flip him over to the floor. He totally looked shocked by my fast reflexes, and he found it very amusing.
He stood up from sitting on the floor after a minute of contemplating what had just happened and stretched out his entire body. I also did the same because I knew what would come next.
