CHAPTER 17: That Should Have Been Me

  Alpha Drax came weaponless; looking at me in dismayed the moment the vampire’s massive hand wrapped around my neck. I choked; almost seeing the Moon Goddess in the divine world when the air stuck in my lungs, slowly losing my strength afterward.

  My body weakened and my eyes started facing up at the sky as if my soul came out of them that moment, my legs fall to the ground from holding the pain in my entire body; Alpha Drax running full speed toward us after seeing me can’t hold again.

  “Get your hand off her or I will kill you” Alpha Drax stated as he ran and it made the vampire’s grip loosen; I almost fall at that time.

  The vampire scoffed and his massive hand still wrapped around my neck; he gave Alpha Drax who at that moment was still in his human form a smirk, pointing my limp body at him as if I was a stick.

  “Get her if you can, little boy” His mouth corner formed into a small evil smile, and the vampire raised his brow as he waited for Alpha Drax to respond; he mocked Alpha Drax.

  “You have no idea who I am” Alpha Drax declared angrily; his palms formed into fists.

  He was standing right in front of us and by that time the girl who helped me earlier had already gotten away from the scene; she hid in the bush and watched us in fear.

  “Yes, I have no clue who you are, little boy! But sure you did not comparable to me” The Vampire arrogantly replied.

  His words pissed Alpha Drax so much, his eyes turned red as the Red Moon eclipse that only appears every one hundred years once that night.

  “Sure I didn’t because you will no longer be able to feel the air in your nose again after this” Alpha Drax responded; he was getting ready to transform but unfortunately, he did not make it.

  Another vampire appeared out of nowhere, leaping from the tree and landing right next to the vampire who was clutching my neck. Alpha Drax directed his gaze to the vampire who had arrived, causing him to cancel his transformation.

  That night, two vampires were ready to beat Alpha Drax; they were also ready to take me with them at any time; thankfully, the Alpha that I caught feeling with stopping them. One has big muscles, and the other has more weapons; he brought a bronze arrow and a sword on his back, which worried me because none of us had a weapon against them; all we had was faith.

  When his friend arrived, the vampire smiled, expecting them to win the fight because they won on the number; when I was losing my strength, there was nothing I could do but accept my fate.

  “How nice to see you again” Alpha Drax scoffed when he saw the new vampire; it turned out the two of them had fought back then. “I can’t believe you’re still here after what happened earlier in the ballroom” He declared and his words infuriated the new vampire.

  Alpha Drax, who had not changed forms, fought the two vampires. Before they started fighting, the vampire threw me to the ground. Fortunately, the girl who had saved me earlier was smarter than the vampire and she dashed toward my limp body as soon as she noticed the vampire caught off guard.

  She dragged my body as quickly as she could into the bush, tapping my cheeks to wake me up once we arrived. I slowly opened my eyes as I felt her skin brush against my cheeks.

  “Shhh” She covered my mouth and shut me; my eyes bulged the moment I realized I wasn’t in the vampire’s wrap anymore.

  My mind thinks of Alpha Drax when I opened my eyes; never crossed my mind to think about my safety after I saw him earlier.

  “Drax, where is he?” I immediately get my back off the ground as I realized he was not there hiding with us.

  The girl pushed my shoulder and forced me to lie on my back, knowing that my voice would alert the vampires that I was no longer in my position; the girl tightly pressed her palm against my mouth.

  “We need to run before the vampire notice you are gone” The girl suggested leaving Drax behind which raised my temper because he was there to save both of us.

  “No, how could we leave him?” I exclaimed in a low voice. “We can’t leave him to die” I declared angrily.

  The girl raises her eyebrows and sighs before she responds “How can we save him? We are just tiny girls” She said. “Best we can do right now is to safe our ass” The girl ended.

  She spell on me and made me agree with her words even though I don’t want to agree with her; I don’t want to leave Drax on the battlefield, but I don’t have a choice at that time, moreover, I will not leave him if I know he can’t fight them.

  The two of us then carefully leave the bush, I held my breath the moment we both stepped out of the bush; I saw Drax fighting the vampires by himself, and he did that without changing his form. And when the girl and I stepped out, Alpha Drax’s girl came to our spot to hide; she gets startled when she see us.

  “Holly shit” She mumbled and it gained the vampires’ attention; one of them finally realized I was not in my place anymore.

  At that time the bush that was our hiding place was only twenty meters away from the place where Alpha Drax and the vampires were fighting. The Vampire who previously fought Alpha Drax immediately pulled away and ran after us who were about to run away at that moment.

  Noticing his girl is in danger, Alpha Drax released the power that had been stored in him to beat the vampire who was fighting with him, without waiting for a long time; the vampire fell to the ground shortly after receiving Alpha Drax’s deadly fist.

  But it was a shame when the three of us ran away from the bush, the Omega fell, that girl’s face hit the ground and her head was bleeding.

  When I and the girl who helped me earlier saw the Omega whimpering in pain on the ground, we quickly helped her and took her arms to raise her from the ground, but the vampire thwarted our efforts.

  The nearly two-meter-tall vampire shook his head and grinned while the girl and I was trying to lift the Omega from the ground, the vampire stepped on the hem of the Omega’s dress and made it difficult for us to give aid to her, the vampire then took the bronze sword that was on his back and get ready to use it.

  “Shit, get down!”

  The new girl shouted and gave a signal for all of us who were there to remove ourselves from the spot we were standing; the Omega who was laid on the ground can do nothing but close her eyes when the sword run toward her; the sword only ten centimeters away from her face at that time, it almost rip her into pieces.

  Her lover, Alpha Drax stopped the bronze sword with both hands and caused his palms to get scratched. Blood spurted through his palms after that, but instead of feeling pain, he pulled the sword away from the vampire; quickly, the girl and I pulled the Omega from the ground and saved her.

  Alpha Drax managed to snatch the sword from the vampire, but the test didn’t stop there, the vampire who had fainted on the ground suddenly got up and started attacking him again, but we have weapons this time, it would be very easy to defeat those vampires with their weapons.

  “Thanks, I can stand by myself” Diane gets rid of our hands which were helping her to stand; she behaved as if we were never there to save her life.

  The girl and I immediately off our hands from her, the new girl looked upset the moment she received that kind of thank-you remark, she reached over my hand and give me a signal to leave the place.

  “Let’s go” She whispered, pulling my hand gently. “You want to go with us, or stay?” The girl asked Diane. “We can take you to the safe place” The girl declared.

  But Diane shook her head in a sign of no; she chose to wait for her lover who was fighting the vampires.

  I was so envious when I saw Alpha Drax sacrifice those two hands to save Diane; if I were in that position, Drax would never want to sacrifice his palms to be scratched by a sword like he did for that Omega.

  And who exactly am I? I am not his girl, nor am I as close to him as Diane is. I can’t expect Alpha Drax to save me; moreover, we can’t be together, but I might kill everyone who has hurt him, and will not regret it.
