Chapter sixteen:
Hikaru eyes are flickering around trying to figure out any way to warn his brother to not come because it's a trap. He however finds no way out and with the wolves watching him like hawks. He can't get out and he worries for what that will mean for his brother. He shudders as he imagines the wolves shredding his own brother right in front of him. He seriously can only hope that they won't do that to his twin. He is very highly doubtful of his brother involving any of their friends when he finds out… Especially because he has a feeling that this is a part of the world Kaoru was thrown into.
Meanwhile…
"Okay." The clan leader speaks when Kaoru and Jay have joined them outside. "We got news from a scout. There is bread crumbs so to speak. Well a scent trail to be precise. It leads to a building. It's away from civilization." He informs the two of them. "We have the scout checking the area now. We'll be meeting the scout there and figure out where each group will be going." He looks at the others who are still there with them. "We move out now." He takes the lead with a tall confident walk.
The others follow their leader all quiet to be ready to move at the leaders command.
All of them head over to the location and the member who had been sent as the scout is waiting in nearby bushes. They all settle down to sit as it was a bit of a walk.
"Give us the scoop." The leader commands keeping his eyes on the one that had been sent as a scout.
"Well sir there appears to be only a few wolves who were moving around. They were using entrance ways just by pushing them open. Sometimes they'd come back out and go elsewhere. Sometimes they don't come out. They're planning for an arrival in any entrance." The scout reports and Kaoru takes a small peek at the building.
Kaoru is sure that it must have been abandoned but rebuilt. He can only guess that it was rebuilt to try to help hide the werewolves. He figures that it has become a place where the wolves can hide and be themselves freely. He goes back down to once again pay attention to what the others are saying.
"Okay. So we have about six entrances." The leader tells them turning to look to Kaoru's eyes. "You and Jay will need to be careful. Stay back and away from the building. We'll scout out the building then send a text. We have to make sure that the prisoner is in fact there. Once we have that it's up to you two to sneak through the building and figure out how to get to said prisoner. Use the distraction to your advantage." He orders in which the two nod their heads in understanding. He turns to the others. "We sneak in. Try to stay undetected. We look for the prisoner and try to not be caught. Phones on silent and keep me updated. If anyone stops any updates I will know something happened." He gets nods of confirmation in response. He points to different entrances assigning different members to each of them. "We have to rescue this human. He should not have become involved."
Kaoru barely manages to hold his mouth shut about why involve him in this world then. He isn't sure that this is the time or place.
"Kaoru."
Kaoru turns to the leader.
"You look like you have something to say." The leader states as all the members turn to the ginger vampire. "I have a feeling I know what you're going to say. So why don't you say it so I can answer it?"
Kaoru swallows harshly but he wants to know so bad. He finally opens his mouth figuring that he has permission so it's finally time to get some answers. "If we aren't supposed to mix up humans into this world, obviously unless we need to feed and such, then why involve me? Why bring me into such a world?"
The leader smirks with a rather knowing look shining in his eyes. "I knew you were going to ask that." He admits to the other. "And I suppose it's been bugging you. But now you can learn why you were chosen." He slightly leans forward with his elbows coming to be placed on his knees. "We need to go back to that moment you first met us. The time you became one of us."
Kaoru listens intently wanting to know the answer.
"It wasn't just about you entering our territory. We don't attack humans just because of that." The leader informs the other. "No. It started when I first laid eyes on you. I knew deep inside of myself that you were something else. That you needed to be added to the clan. Funny thing, we were looking for new members." He makes sure that their eyes are locked together. "When we need new members I find that the best way to have them be loyal is if they are made. Those who are born often are more likely to stick to being loyal to another leader. The leader that they grew up with. You have no idea how hard it is to get members to break away from their leader. Besides getting close enough to children that you may be able to change their way of thinking. So what's the next best thing? I'm sure you've already guessed it. Turning humans into vampires. They become bound to the clan. Then came the time to choose who we will turn to join us."
"So… You just wanted me to add numbers to your clan…" Kaoru softly speaks in realization.
"A bigger clan means more protection. Higher chance of survival. The more members that are a part of the group faster the better. Children have to grow, but older vampires can help the clan right away." The leader confirms to the ginger. "However we now tackle why you. Why were you chosen? Well its actually kind of simple. I have a good sense of judgement about others I find. You're something else. You're different. You're something I've never seen before. SO I waited until finally I could make you into a part of the clan. The day you came into our territory. I didn't have to worry about any clans or packs getting upset. And In sure you're wondering why you. What makes you so perfect. Well, seeing something unique and amazing about you I just knew." He suddenly reaches out towards Kaoru. His movements are heading towards him putting his hand on Kaoru's cheek.
Kaoru slightly flinches back though a part of him deep down inside fights. He knows that the vampire side is fighting because this is the leader. He feels very tense when the others finger tips brush against his cheek. His eyes darting down to look at the hand where he is being touched.
"I just knew that you were the perfect one to be a mate. To me."
