Chapter 93
93 DON’T COME!
The organization was called; The Hound.
And the leader of The Hound was none other than Archie Williams. The head of the organization that had been hunting down the supernatural creatures for a long time.
They had even submitted a list of the people, who were supernatural creatures to the Government. That was top secret, but for sure, Gael McKeltar’s name was top in the list.
He was the priority, not because the other creatures were less important than him, but by chasing Gael, Archie could make use of Sol’s anger more efficiently. He would hunt anything or whatever, to get his hands on the creature that had kidnapped his girl.
It was almost like Lise was the carrot that led the donkey to move toward the direction that the owner wanted.
It was quite easy to work like this.
“All of these people are not as important as someone named Chaos,” Archie said in one of the important meetings with the President and all the ministers after the President ratified The Hound.
“Who is Chaos?” one of the ministers asked him.
“He is the most powerful supernatural creature that had created the earthquake not so long ago.” Archie smiled triumphantly when they listened to him. Power was the most important thing in a battle. “If we can kill him. We can subdue all the supernatural creatures.”

===================
Since the confidential list of the non- human beings among the people would never be published, those shifters or supernatural creatures that had been living among the humans were not aware of this.
However, since they became the target, it was only a matter of time before they vanished one day.
This pattern, of course, didn’t go unnoticed by Gael and Knox.
Something really bad was going on and this change that the government brought to them would be something that forced all the creatures to be on high alert. They would become more aggressive if they were provoked, as it was the mechanism of their self defense.
But in human eyes, they would look like, as if they were trying to attack them, not to mention with many accidents happening and a few members of The Hound died during the hunt when they encountered those supernatural creatures.
Knox and Gael didn’t need to be told that the McKeltar manor would be their next target.
“We need to get out of this Fokosa city,” Knox told Gael through a phone call when another important figure in this city had been caught as he was a shifter.
The news of it became a headline, especially when two members of The Hound died during the arrest, with the tagline; how many people in important positions are actually non- human beings?
It raised hatred and aggression among the people.
“We need to discuss it further.” Gael stared at Lise, who was still sleeping and had not yet gained her consciousness, even though a month had been gone.
If they had to move out of this city, he couldn’t leave her behind, but to bring her along, it needed a meticulous plan, especially with all the life support machines that were connected to her, to keep her alive during her coma, since she couldn’t breath on her own.
What the f*ck those people had given Lise until she was in this state?
“We need to let Blue stay at home.”
“No,” Knox disagreed. “It will raise suspicion on her,” he reasoned with him.
“Once those people from the government knew that Blue has our last name, she will be a target and you are talking about leaving her behind is suspicious?” Gael scoffed. “It will be safer for her to stay at home.”
Knox didn’t answer that immediately, but then he agreed with that. The situation out there was truly chaotic, people would be suspicious of one another and since the appearance of the supernatural beings, the rate of the crime had been increasing sharply.
It almost felt like those people did not only want to kill the supernatural creatures, but also wanted to kill each other.
“We will discuss this at home. I need to go and pick her up.” Gael looked at the wristwatch on his hand and squinted his eyes, he would be late now.
And then, without waiting for Knox’s reply, Gael cut off the call between them and walked to Lise’s bedside, he leaned over and kissed her forehead, caressing her cheeks softly. “I will return as soon as possible.”
After that, he left Lise’s room, warning all the guards there to keep their eyes on their surroundings and immediately report to him if something strange was happening, no matter how trivial it was.
Gael wouldn’t take it lightly even if it was only a mere unconcerning thing. He had lost Lise once and this was what happened to her, he would never let anyone touch her again.
===================
The bell rang throughout the whole school building, indicating that all the students could call it a day now and return to their houses.
Blue was packing her things into her backpack when a teacher came to her saying that someone wanted to see her in the principal’s office.
The little girl frowned when she heard that, she didn’t think she had done something bad, she had not even fought for months now. So, why was she being called there all of a sudden?
“No, there is someone who wants to see you,” the teacher said, Ms. Sophia, she had a beautiful smile and a dimple when she curled her lips into a soft smile. “Come one.”
Ms. Sophia stretched out her hand and took hers, and together they walked toward the principal’s office, but on the way, Blue met Nikolai, who was running toward her in a rush.
Nikolai came to Blue and immediately pulled her closer, as he crooked his hand around his mouth and whispered to her.
“Don’t go to the principal’s office, there is a member of The Hound there.” Nikolai had just been there a moment ago and they told him to not tell anyone about this.
