Destined For Death by Aysha K (books to read fiction TXT) 📖

was talking about Arhine.                                                                                                                                                                        

“Um….Okay” I say trying to take this all in.                                                                                            

“And I am putting you on a new assignment” now this was my kind of thing, I cracked my knuckles Eager to find out.                                                                                                                                         

“About what?” I ask as I take a cup of coffee from Cincia                                                                          

“About all those girls who have gone missing, I’m sure you have heard about this, oui (Yes)?” who hasn’t its been on the news for the past 3 weeks and dad thinks that the Vincent family have something to do with it because each of these girls had some sort of connection with the Vincent family and the older girls knew the hunter from their family,Arhine.

“Yes, but I thought Vicky and her team were on it?” I say, my voice filled with confusion                              

“Noir, Alex, Vicky and Charlie are the only ones who made it back and they are in the hospital recovering”      

“So you want me and my team to finish off this case” I say, already knowing the answer

“Yes and you will be taking Xavier with you” What!! I have to take MR.Tweedle Dumb with me! Oh great can things get any better? But all I said was

“Yes father”

 “Oh yes, I almost forgot, you will also be in charge of looking out for that girl” seriously he really needs to emphasize the word girl? “Because I think where she is thought to be from has mainly been targeted for the kidnaps” I role my eyes

“What has she got to do with this case” I ask even though I couldn’t care less

"She has everything to do with this case”                                                                                              

“Which is what exactly?” I ask getting slightly pissed at him for trying to test my patience                          

"You will find out sooner or later but for now this is nothing for you to concern yourself with”                  

“Yeah right its not my concern” I mutter to myself, I walked towards the door when….                              

“Xander” my father beckoned me back. I turned around for him to tell me….                                              

“As a part of this case and since you will be leading it as well as your team, you will need to join the local school from where most of the girls went to if I can remember the name, ah its called Stoneville High School, you need to gather enough information about them so we have enough evidence against the Vincent family” he says then dismisses me before I can even protest. I leave my coffee there because it doesn’t taste like coffee no more, more like puke.                                                                                                                        

Seriously I have to start a new school just because of some damn missing girls report. I already hate school enough so thinking about another would be too much.                                                                          

I didn’t realise that I was out of the building when I felt autumn’s cool breeze touched my face and neck revealing my birthmark., it was the shape of hells fire wrapped around an angels sword thats what mom would tell me when i was little.. I was walking towards my car, that’s when I say it running, I couldn’t see what it was at first but as that thing got closer and closer, my hand hovered over the gun that I keep with me, that thing was running towards me but not for me because it was running away from something, I wouldn’t have noticed if it wasn’t for that knife she had dodged which found its way to my arm, damn that kills, What even supernatural beings can feel pain yah know! I can’t believe it it’s that girl, Arhine! She was saying something, was she calling for help? I watched her as she was running towards me and behind her I could see why she was running away and jeez I don’t blame her! They are soo ugly they look like they bathe in ash, black slits as eyes, tongues that looked like a snakes and it even flicking in and out like one, they are all wearing black, they have cuts and bruises and each one of them are carrying a weapon.                                                            

Arhine was only 10 feet away from me when I could actually hear what she was saying                                

“Run, you vos plennus humana (Stupid human)” hey that hurt “Run, Run back to your kind otherwise you will be getting some nightmares that even mommy and daddy can’t scare away” okay she just hit a nerve. Instead of running away, I ran towards her when out of nowhere when one of those things got in between the two of us but before I knew it Arhine pounced onto it and decapitated it. There was another one coming so I did what I could do, got out my gun and shot at it until it burst into flames. Somehow Arhine killed half of those creature and was standing next to me.                                                                                                                      

“Great just what I needed! Damn you daemons” she mutters to herself.                                                      

“Great they’re demons, just want to add anything to my list of ‘my life sucks’” I muttered to myself while staring at one of them but for some reason Arhine was just staring at me like I was a piece of artwork she didn’t know how to decipher. The last remaining demon jumped at her but couldn’t see properly but she kicked it square in the heart and while it flung away she threw fireball at it and it burst into flames and disintegrated.  

chapter 3 'You do know that 'Outhouse' means toilet...Right?'

I was still throwing fire balls into thin air when I felt someone touch my arm and lower it                      

"Let me go" I cried breathlessly, struggling to get out of its powerful grip                                                  

"Fine but not until you stop attacking thin air, you idiot" it said, I turned my head to look into the eyes of a green eyed god! My face was inches away from its own when reality found its way back to me. I wasn't looking into the eyes of a green eyed god but Xander Cassopian Blake, my enemy. I took one step back, then another and another and another, I only stopped when I thought I was at a safe distance.                                    

"Arhine, why on earth are you still here?" he asked                                                                                  

"What I do and do not do is nothing you should be concerning yourself with" telling myself to mentally calm down and taking slow deep breaths.                                                                                                      

"You're bleeding, Arhine, so maybe I shouldn't give a damn because you're my enemy but I do, so live with it" he says. I look down to see my arm and thigh covered in blood.
