Mated To My Boyfriend's Dad novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108: _ Vampires!

We left the police station behind, but the situation had settled heavily upon us. It was already so dark by the time we were out, making me feel a little more guilty about leaving my boy home – hungry.

The usual bustle of pack life unfolded around us but was limited, unlike the daylight. It was a few days to the full moon, and everyone was outside more as from today. It was said that playing under the moonlight a few nights before the full moon would allow one the full glory of the Moon Goddess’s blessings during the full moon.

A myth I had no belief in.

"These children should be in bed," I commented as we passed by a group of children chasing each other through the streets under the moonlight.

Their playful shriek was a contrast to the worry I harbored in my heart for them.

Lupe, who was clung to my arm shrugged. "You know why everyone’s out, Isleen. I think we should go get Cullen and Liam too. We all need to be part of this ritual." She said.

Argh.

Lupe was more educated than this statement she had just uttered; at least, that was what I thought.

Kylo, who had been stealing worried glances at me, whistled at Lupe. "You two have been through a lot today. You mostly, Lupe. Yet, you want to be a part of this RITUAL. Why? Because of some myth?"

"What? Don’t commit such a blasphemy to the Moon Goddess, Kylo. Don’t question her ways either. This most certainly is not a myth!" Lupe firmly stated.

Kylo scoffed. "Yes, don’t question her, I concur with that. But coming outside when the pack’s not safe and the sensible thing to do is stay indoors, what do you call that?"

As though to answer his question, a bloodcurdling scream rippled through the night. It came with such an urgency that sent a jolt of fear through me.

The playful shouts of the children died down abruptly, replaced by a panicked scramble. People surged forward, then back again, running up and down as confusion turned into terror around us.

What the hell was going on?

Could this day end already?!

"Vampires!" A voice bellowed from amidst the crowd running towards us. "They’re here! Protect yourselves!"

What the–?

Vampires were here again? To attack us? Had they no fear for our order anymore? What was going on?

I thought Gamma Rhett and the rest of the military were working hard to protect us.

Before I could even process the words, Kylo grabbed my arm with a firm grip. "Isleen, hide! Behind me!" He barked, shoving me behind his broad frame.

Hide behind him?

Tch. I’d rather fight too.

Around us, the pack was coming alive. Wolves began to snarl, their eyes glowing as they all shifted into their wolf forms, everyone bracing themselves to save themselves.
