Blood Ransom (Completed)

Chapter 11: The Keeper

"Sigurado ka, gusto mong malaman? Baka mabahag ang buntot mo kapag nakita mo kung sino ang nasa loob at nanunuod sa atin dito?" ngumisi sa kanila si Grim, nagkatinginan naman ang mga ito and Grim was about to talk again, when they immediately shifted. I see I am right; hindi sila basta-basta.

They are one of the groups of werewolves.

"Shit!" Narinig kong mura ni Calum, naramdaman ko namang may humawak sa kamay ko, and I saw my brother looking at me. Puno ng pagaalala ang mga mata niya habang si Nana Marty ay mahigpit na yakap ang isang bag. Si Lucien naman ay nanatiling kalmado, nakasandal ito sa backrest at blanko ang mukhangg nanonood habang nakahalukipkip.

"Kill them!" Saktong papasalita pa lang sana ulit si Grim ay tatlo na sa kanila ang sumugod sa kaniya. Hindi ako makapaniwalang napapanood ko siyang lumaban ngayon at masasabi kong mabilis siya at malakas. Hindi pa siya nagpapalit ay makikita mo nang wala sa kaniyang laban ang mayayabang na lobong sumubok harangin kami.

"They're fools, hindi yata nila kilala kung sino ang kalaban nila, walang utak at siraulo ang isang 'yan, pero hindi mo gugustuhing makalaban." I heard Calum say as he watched Grim fight for us intently.

He immediately gave them a round kick before he threw punches at the other one. He quickly grabbed the other's face and kicked him hard. We can hear their growls from here, as Grim moved fast. With his speed, it was almost impossible to keep up with him because he was switching directions. As he settled in front of them, he immediately showed them his claws and scourged the other one before burying my hand in the other one. It fell together in front of him. The pompous one left is the arrogant one, who I'm sure is the leader of their group.

"Mukhang kilala ko na kung sino ka, you're the exiled." exiled? Exiled saan? Exiled from his pack?

He disregarded it and leaped into the air in front of his opponent. As he scourged his face, he instantly executed the 360-degree spinning hook kick, causing his enemy to tumble rapidly. He was going to dodge when he grabbed Grim's ankle and yanked his opponent off. He kicked it rapidly, and in an instant, he had it by the neck. He sank his claws in his opponent's flesh, eliciting a horrifying cry. Halos sobrang dami ng mantsa ng dugo ang mukha at damit ni Grim na tila balewala sa kaniya at bumalik sa loob ng kotse.

"Damn man, you stink!"

"Shut up, Calum." pasiring naman nito kay Calum at sumulyap kay Lucien na wala namang kibo at nagsimula nang buhayin ang engine.

"I should have helped you," Calum said again.

"No thanks, kauri ko 'yon, alam ko kung paano sila patayin. What do you think, Lucien, my friend?" Tila nakakaloko pa ang boses nito ngunit nanatiling seryoso si Lucien.

"That's insane," Lucien said in a flat voice.

"Well, I vowed to help you and to protect Agatha." Nagulat ako sa sinabi niya at napalingon, sumulyap naman sa akin si Grim at bahagyang kumindant.

"You don't have to do that, don't do that again, Grim, kinabahan ako. Saka sino ba naman ako para protektahan mo? I am just a lowly mortal." I awkwardly said, huli na para bawiin ko ang sinabi dahil lahat sila nakatingin lamang sa akin.
