"Kook, what took you so long? I've been waiting so long for you two!" Hoseok complained when the two younger ones finally showed up.

Alicia kept her eyes on the ground all the time. She was still embarrassed about what was happening at home in her living room.

"Calm down hyung, there were just some ... obstacles in our way," Jungkook replied cautiously with his words.

"Yeah let's say that then," Hoseok said as he rolled his eyes.

Jungkook could feel a heat creeping up his cheeks, but he tried to shake it off. I do not think about it now.

Their footsteps echoed in the dark darkness that swallowed the last rays of the sun. Alicia had all her senses in use as they approached the place where they captured Seokjin. Her wolf-sense made her have the feeling that something sneaky was lurking in them in the deep darkness. As if someone was pursuing them, like a spy. Her fingers drummed quietly over the butt of her knife, ready to pull it out if necessary.

The other two hunters themselves did not have a sense like that, however, to the same degree. Hoseok led them into the darkness closely pursued by the younger boy, and as a rearguard girl, on their small team. Luckily, they could still see the narrow street, because the elder did not have the feeling that it would be a good idea to pull out a light.

The street narrowed quickly, and they reached the end of it, where a single house with burning candles in the windows stood. The oldest hunter turned around towards the other two.

"Okay, this is where he lives, Kook you're coming with me and Alicia you're staying out here," Hoseok said, making eye contact with both of them.

But the girl had the attention on something else. A strong odor had caught Alicia's attention, coming from inside the deep shadows.

"Alicia are you listening?" the elder asked, looking at her profile from behind.

The girl swallowed, she was not sure how much her contact lenses covered her glowing eyes.

But she nodded anyway, "Yeah, just go in, I'll stay out here."

Hoseok eyed her intently, but then shrugged, "Okay, come Jungkook."

The two boys turned around and walked towards the stone staircase, which led up to the candle-lit house. The eldest looked over his shoulder one last time at the girl, who was still standing with her back facing them. There's something completely wrong with her ..

Alicia heard the door close behind her and exhaled calmly again. Her eyes followed the dark spot that crept around inside the shadows. Her eyes narrowed as the dark spot suddenly began to move at an inhuman speed. Her predator eyes could barely keep up and she looked searchingly, but a strong odor hit her sensitive nose inside, a hand gripped her tightly and pushed her against one of the house walls. Her back pounded into the wall and she made a faint sound in pain. Her gaze flew up meanwhile, a deep growl naturally snuck up from her throat. A complete black-haired boy smiled wickedly at her. She was so close to losing her angry expression when she caught sight of his eyes, which were completely filled with sparkling black color, more reminiscent of lakes of ink. A demon.

"Well, well, what do we have here, a werewolf maid disguised as a hunter, huh?" said the boy in a deep rough voice.

Alicia scowled directly into his eyes and dark soul. Most of all, she just wanted to stab him on the spot, but he had caught her. Demons are the worst ... Alicia stood with utter disgust pushed up by the cold house wall and could not move out of the spot.

"Let me go!" she commanded, but he just started laughing evily.

"What? Why, though, that's no fun," he replied with a whispering voice at last.

The demon slowly began to lean further over the girl. Alicia started to panic. Her heart beat faster and faster the closer he got. Fuckfuckfuck. His cold hand snuck up around her form and grabbed hold of her hip while he drilled his fingers hard in as if she could not feel any pain. She whimpered in pain and grabbed his wrist with one hand. But he just laughed flattered at her and did not move his hand. He released his grip, which held her opposite arm against the wall, and placed it around her neck and cheek instead. In an aggressive motion, he leaned with his entire body weight in toward her, pushing her even more toward the house wall. A blow hit the back of her head, and she closed her eyes in pain. A warm, wet sensation hit an area on her neck and she suddenly opened her eyes again. The demon sucked and kissed her throat in careless movements and she did everything not to make any noises. It felt completely wrong and she did not like it at all. Her wolf was about to freak out over it. For the very first time, Alicia was grateful that she was not alone in this. Slowly, Valentina took control of Alicia, and she felt how it made her stronger. With the new powers, she fought one hand down to her sword and grabbed it. The demon had slowly kissed itself over her neck, but before he could move on, Alicia and her wolf kicked with all the force they had the demon off of them and stood threatening with the knife pointed at him.

The demon was still looking with a big buttery smile on his lip aimed at Alicia, who was standing and breathing in violent jerks.

"You dare touch me!" she said, holding the blade up against his throat.

He just laughed, as the blade had no effect on him.

"And what are you going to do with me if I do?" the demon asked with a smirk and crossed his arms.

She scowled at him and could no longer hold out the urge and swung the knife in a sliding motion around, drilling it directly into his stomach. The demon's smile disappeared for a brief second and was replaced by a shocked expression, but immediately returned again. Alicia knew she had him now. The trick in it was that her knife was forged from certain materials that no underworlder could withstand and was therefore weakened by it.

A black liquid dripped from the wound, and Alicia drew the sword out again, giving a jerk in the weakened demon. In a hard motion, she grabbed him by the arms and twisted them around at his back, and pushed him forward. He didn't say a word. This was the plan.
