"Who's next?" When Magnus faced them, they simultaneously bowed down in fear that they might be thrown into the sea.
Magnus looked at Mia whose eyes were now widening at what he witnessed. Shh, Magnus thought.
Although afraid, Prince Malbonte dared to speak. "There is still a way to catch him, Alpha Magnus." Magnus frowned with that. The boy immediately raised the paddle with a big smile. "Let's go on my canoe!"
When the elders heard that, they just shook their heads. "This boy is losing his mind." They left the group and went back to their jobs one after the other.
Magnus stared at Prince Malbonte who was confused to see people leaving. Prince Malbonte is only fourteen so what else can be thought of.
Magnus walked up to Prince Malbonte and stopped next to him. Magnus put his hand on his shoulder with a sigh and patted it gently. Unbeknownst to everyone that this unclaimed wolf will be the one who will next lead the BloodPearl Pack that's why everyone treated him like a shit. Except him, Prince Malbonte and his slave already knew about that.
Due to his neglected life, Magnus was only young when he already accepted the fact that he was a demon whose soul was burning in hell.
"Go pack your things," Magnus ordered him, the reason he was stunned. "We are going to follow that monk."
That's when Prince Malbonte's eyes widened. "Alpha Magnus?"
Magnus snorted and grinned softly. "Get ready. We will kill her lover," he responded and looked at Mia and simply left.

"Have you seen your Alpha?"
"Not yet. That's the way it is, man." Loud laughter rang out. "Let's say I have treasure. And everyone around me, even you, would kill me to steal that treasure from me. If I come out by any chance and show myself, then I will die."
"You're high?" The person he was talking to just shook his head and then they continued drinking alcohol together.
On the other hand, from the distance of the window, Magnus could see the two people drinking some liquor inside the abandoned packhouse. It was late at night and the only sound of crickets could be heard all around. The small houses here are close together but all of them are dilapidated and abandoned, only one packhouse has a light and that is the only place where they can hide.
Magnus lowered his hat and grinned. "Two rats hiding to the cat, huh," he whispered with a little smirk on his lips.
Carrying the katana, he walked steadily towards the packhouse and when he arrived, he kicked the door, which caused breaking it and surprising the two people who were currently stopped amidst their conversation. The friend of the drunk man who was talking about treasure was about to rush forward but it was too late when the blade of Magnus' katana hit him in the neck causing him to fall to the floor and his head rolled.
Magnus then faced the drunk man. Trembles can be seen in his whole body which made Magnus laugh a bit. Apology for he found that funny, he told him.
The drunk man gulped in nervousness. "W-Who are you?!" he almost stuttered.
Magnus smiled softly and walked over to the table. "Aren't you going to at least invite me to sit first?" He foolishly placed the blood-soaked katana on the table and sat down. He also quickly poured wine into a clean glass and sipped it in front of the man who was already stiff in his seat. "You're Lucas, right?" he asked as he put down his glass.
Lucas swallowed. "You are the Alpha of BloodPearl," he said, not asking questions but telling what he suddenly realized. But for a few moments, he bravely stared at Magnus. "You don't know who is protecting me. They are many and powerful people. You cannot just kill me!"
Lucas' remaining courage was lost in an instant when he heard a gun triggering under the table. He was completely stunned when he felt the cold muzzle of the gun aimed at his trembling manhood.
"If you are truly protected..." Magnus' smile turned to silly, "then where are they now to save your dick?"
That's when Lucas' face became even more angry. "Fuck—"
"Yes, I am a fucker," Magnus cut him off and laughed when he saw how his face turned red in disgust. Magnus continued, "Don't worry. I'll give you two options to make your death more epic."
With one hand, Magnus poured the wine again. "It's either trick or treat. Just choose. It's my pleasure to serve you anyway, since you gave me this," he added as he took another sip of wine, only to shake his head as he felt the warm liquid rub against his chest. . "Have you said goodbye to your Alpha yet?"
Lucas was about to answer when the phone next to him, which was lying on the table, suddenly rang. When Magnus read the name of the caller on Lucas' phone, they looked at each other as silence reigned. Their stare took a long time only to see who will move first until Lucas nimbly grabbed his phone. But all of his effort was ignored when Magnus' gun shot directly at his manhood.
Lucas stiffened while his eyes widened, he could feel the gradual swelling of the part that was shot causing him to feel a sharp pain.
Meanwhile, Magnus calmly put the gun aside and calmly grabbed the phone from Lucas' hand. He answered the call while staring at his pale face.
"You—fucking asshole!"the person on the other line exclaimed. "Mr. Feng called me and immediately cut off our connection! Why didn't you tell us the cargo was attacked by rogues?! You survived but why didn't you tell us?! Stupid!"
"Alpha Dominn..." was Lucas' last line, unable to breathe, Lucas suddenly fell to the floor with blood oozing from his pants.
"Lucas?! Answer me! What document did you just send?!"the Alpha Dominn shouted again.
