Chapter 15 - Chapter 15

Nightfall came, Thea and Anitta were waiting anxiously in the dark room. Who do you think this mysterious somebody is? I don't know Thea, that boy never told me.

I wonder what he want. So do I, Thea, so do I. You don't think he want to..you know? No, I hope not, Anitta said fixing her glasses. What the hell are you two talking about?

They both jumped with fright, a cute yelp escaped Theas mouth. He came out of the shadows with the meat filled hide. You need to stop doing that, said Anitta.

Doing what? That, that thing where you just come out of nowhere without warning. Oh sorry. He placed down the boar hide. What is that? Asked Thea.

He opened the hide and a mountain of meat appeared. The room was dimly lit by the moonlight shining through the window so Thea and Anitta had to come closer to see what it was.

Is...is that? Is that what I think it is? He nodded, but how? Why? Why would you give us this? Anitta asked with tears in her eyes. Because I can.

Thea drew even closer and started touching the meat, it real, it real, miss Anitta it real. How did you get so much meat? He shrugged, I have my means.

You can share with with the kids and whoever else you want, I'll be taking my leave now, he said as he went towards the door.

WAIT, shouted Thea, how can we repay you for this? He turned and smiled at her, you'll know when I come to collect. This caught both of them off guard.

He left them like that. After he was gone. It confirmed now Thea, that boy is bloodline holder, but I wonder how he got it, I remember he didn't have a bloodline nor did his mother.

It doesn't matter how he got it, we can't let that pig Tiger find out. Hoh, and what exactly can't you let Tiger found out, they both heard a male voice echo in the room, both of them stood still, their bodies becoming stiff with fear.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Ashborn had just arrived back in his room, Shade was still sleeping in the conor when they both heard a gunshot. Shade woke up, his ears raised to the sky.

Ashborn ran to the roof, his falcon eyes gazed at the western side of the town where he heard the gunshot and what he saw made his blood run cold.

Tiger got out of the school building with the hide filled with meat while his men were dragging Thea and Anitta behind him. Theas thigh was bleeding, it seems the gunshot was because of that.

Without wasting any time he ran back to his room and took one of the longer guns and the few remaining bullets that fits inside it. Back on the roof, he aimed his gun at the west.

His eyes alone were enough to see things clearly from that distance but with a scope, it was as if they were standing right infront of him.

The only problem was he could not hear what they were saying but it did not matter, he didn't need to hear them to know he should kill them. Thea was roughly shoved to the ground and Anitta was thrown at Tiger who held her tightly by her arm.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Thea had not expected the day would end like this. Not long after they were given so much meat by that guy, Tigers men showed up.

For a second she thought Ashborn had sold them out but immediately dismissed that idea, he wouldn't have brought them meat in that case, Tiger wouldn't need an excuse to kill them after all.

That means it was either purely coincidental or they were already after her and her suspicions were confirmed before long. Did you think we wouldn't know you were stealing from us?

I don't know what you talking about, she replied looking at the group of men infront of her. You don't know what I'm talking about? You bitch have been stealing our food for some brats and you thought we wouldn't find out.

She didn't reply, there was no reason to, she was certain they knew and she wasn't going to apologize. What this? The man asked as he approached the bag of meat.

Stay away from it, that not yours. She said as she tried to stop him but multiple guns were suddenly pointed at her, she stood still. The man opened the sack and saw the huge pile of meat.

You, he pointed at one of the men, go inform boss, it seems some people have forgotten their place. The man ran out and came back with Tiger in less than an hour.

Thea felt fear overtake her the moment she saw the giant of a man called Tiger. It seems you've taken what belongs to me, he said in his deep voice.

You weren't going to eat it anyways, if you're going to throw it out then why not just give it to others, she said looking him in the eye trying to appear brave but deep down she was shaking.

I do not speak of that filth, I knew you were stealing that long ago, I said nothing because it did not matter to me, I'm talking about this, he pointed at the pile of meat.

That is not yours, I did not take it from you or your men. Everything in this shitty town is mine, including you, isn't that right my dear? He asked looking at Anitta who was shaking uncontrollably.

That bitch Lucy is no longer here, anger appeared in his rather calm face when he spoke that name, who are you going to hide behind now?

Anitta still said nothing, she just stood there shaking with blank eyes. Tiger turned around and went out taking the meat with him , bring them, he said. His men dragged her by her hair, she resisted ofcourse but that earned her a bullet to the thigh.

It was painful but she did not scream or beg, she would not give them the satisfaction. She was shoved down and forced on her knees while Anitta was thrown at Tiger.

Watch her, watch another person you care about die right infront of your eyes, he said to Anitta who started struggling trying to get to her. It okay, Thea whispered to her with a smile, she closed her eyes and gun shot echoed.
