Chapter 7 You Again?
- The following day in the evening
- Daniel was in the library reading a novel when Timothy entered.
- "Can't you see I am reading?" Daniel asked irritated by the way Timothy interrupted his quiet time
- "Yeah well I am sorry but we need to be somewhere" Timothy ignored his irritation and informed him
- He closed the novel and dropped it on a table then faced Timothy with a glare
- "What is it," he asked Timothy
- "Two rogues were seen at a bar in town," Timothy told him and gave him a small paper
- Daniel read its contents and squeezed the small paper throwing it to the ground "Let's go" Daniel was about to walk when Timothy raised one hand to stop him " We are going in disguise" Daniel wore a frown and Timothy knew Daniel hated disguise "unfortunately the bar is around where a lot of people live and we can't risk letting them see you or even know what we came to do because for now the rogues' invasion is still not yet known among the people" Timothy explained the reason they had to go in disguise
- Given the fact that he is an Alpha king, no one would question whatever he does but the matter of the rogues was still a secret and they were trying to handle the case quietly before it goes out of hand.
- Daniel wanted to protest but he didn't.
- Daniel and Timothy were in town going towards the bar they were informed about
- Daniel was wearing a black cloak with a small cloth tied around his nose down to his mouth to keep his face out of sight.
- Timothy was only wearing a cloak since not many people knew him except for the guards he trained which were always in the palace, A perfect disguise was not needed.
- They got to the bar and took their seats at the front of the bar attender
- "Two Cups" Timothy ordered and brought out a coin, the bar attendant was a woman she looked at the man beside Timothy but could not see his face properly because of his disguise and she assumed they were assassins.
- She took the coin and served them two cups of drink
- "Drink it" Timothy gestured toward the cup but Daniel didn't move to hold the cup
- Timothy shook his head and leaned forward "Alpha King will you please cooperate we don't have all night" he whispered trying to persuade the Cold Man beside him
- He knew Daniel hated gatherings like that because of how he grew up but sometimes situations calls
- Daniel finally relented and grabbed his cup to drink
- Timothy checked a corner and saw one man staring at them, he smirked and brought his cup up to drink.
- At a table in the bar...
- "What are you looking at?" A man out of the two men sitting at the table asked his opponent when he saw him staring at something
- The other man snapped out of it and said "huh? Nothing " he retracted his gaze and took up his cup
- "Why do we have to wait till they leave?" Daniel asked Timothy out of patience, they have been in the bar for almost an hour and Timothy insisted they wait till the rogues left before taking any action but Daniel was running out of patience and wanted to finish up whatever they came to do.
- Timothy was always the strategic one while Daniel preferred action to words because action spoke louder than voice.
- "Calm down will you, Fighting here will destroy the bar and definitely attract attention," he told him
- Daniel sighed and clenched his fist.
- "Ohh they are already leaving" Timothy saw the rogues standing up to leave and informed Daniel
- Once those rogues were out of the bar, Timothy and Daniel stood up to follow them
- They cornered them in a dark alley
- "Why are you following us," one of the rogues asked when they were cornered
- "I think the question should be 'Who are you' " daniel said and smirked
- "If you don't stop following us...." Daniel cut the man speaking off and said in a Stern tone "Do you think you are in the position to threaten" he stopped and continued "What did you guys come to do" he asked
- "And why should we tell you that" the other rogue answered and stepped forward
- "Because it determines if one of you will live or not" Daniel threatened in a cold voice
- The two rogues swallowed, they were getting intimidated by the way Daniel was talking and the way his words sounded serious
- They both turned their back to escape but Daniel already noticed what they wanted to do so he was faster, he gave a punch to one of the rogues making him hit his back on the wall of the alley.
- The other rogue stopped and lunged himself at Daniel to attack him bringing out his claws
- Daniel dodged his attack and twisted his hand then snapped his head into two
- The rogue who hit his back on the wall was already standing when he saw how his subordinate's neck was snapped into two
- He made a run toward the opposite side
- He was able to exit the alley just as Daniel wanted to leave the alley he stumbled upon a lady.
- If he didn't hold her by her waist she would have fallen from the impact of his strong body.
- He held her waist with one hand and used the other to grab the back of her head to prevent her from falling the lady instinctively held his arms for protection.
- Then he twirled her making the lady's back hit the wall with his body very close to hers. He felt a spark going down the hand that was grabbing the back of the lady's head then he looked up to meet the lady's gaze and saw two lemon eyes looking at him with open eyes
- He frowned and said, " You Again!!"
