(HYBRID) A Replacement to an Alpha

Chapter 6: He's not worth it

CHAPTER 6:

HE'S NOT WORTH IT

She stared at her target, a deer. Taking an arrow from her back, she slowly, yet perfectly aimed at it. She was trying to be relaxed, to prevent her murderous instincts to show out because the animal that was around fifty foots from her would definitely feel it. That's simply the way they function, feeling the intents of other creatures in their surrounding, they either run or remain calm.

Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes before opening them again.

And then, she fired her arrow as the forest became filled with the poor animal's cry. She hit it right in the chests, but it wasn't enough to kill it so Evelyn rushed towards the fallen animal. Taking a dagger from her belt, she slowly kneeled down and placed her arm on the deer's head before whispering.
'Vrati ovu dushu nazad prirodi i ponovo joj podari život,'

And then, she sliced it's throat finishing it off...

Tying the animal's corpse for the carriage was never Evelyn's favourite job, because she had to carry it to that place first, which wasn't easy at all.

"Done, kid?" a male's voice asked and she turned around to see a werewolf standing behind her. He had that lazy grin on his face that shone as if he won some award.

"Yeah," she mumbled before she retrieved the dagger in her belt. He only chuckled and she used that chance to study him. He had golden eyes which were the reason as to why she knew what he was, and a black hair. It immediately reminded her of him, but she quickly shook her head. He was not worth it, not after what he made her do last night.

"Like what you see?" he chuckled but she held her stone expression making him frown.

"Who are you?" she asked again.

"Your guard for now, forest is a dangerous place for a kid like you," he explained and she sighed.

"I was here when I was born, and I'll die here as well, don't bother in protecting me. My death will come when destined, and there'll be nothing you can do about it." she shrugged and he tilted his head.

"I kinda like you, so I'll protect you for a while," he mumbled before pointing towards the deer she killed "Need help with carrying that thing?" he asked chuckling at her form covered in mud from head to toe.

"No need to trouble you," she said realizing that he's a third person she talked with in years.

"Oh, not at all," he said before leaning down, and throwing the deer across his shoulders "Where to?" he asked and she sighed.

"Follow me," was all she said before she headed back to the carriage.

"So, you speak that ancient language?' he asked and she rose her eyebrow in confusion "Back then, when you killed the deer you spoke in the ancient language," he said and she frowned. She did?

"I don't know, a woman that taught me how to hunt taught me that saying. What did it mean?" she asked and he tilted his head, she really didn't know?

"It means; return this soul to the nature and breath the life into it once again," he translated and she widened her eyes. She never knew that.

"You seriously didn't know it?" he asked and she shook her head making him frown. If there really was a woman that knew that language out there, they could be in a great trouble.

"We're here," she said and he rose his head to the carriage that already had four deers on it.

"Whoa, you and others hunt together?" he asked, so far there was only one source of the deer meat in the city, so that probably means that this kid and others were the ones that brought them.
