Chapter 54
Scarlett's POV,
"Scarlett!!!", someone called my name loudly, making me pause. I turned and saw Anna, the witch, walking forward with the staff in her hand as help for movement.
I sneered at her, wondering what she was doing here and why the hell she stopped me.
"Don't kill him please ", she begged.
"Why?", I asked getting angry.
She looked around and back to me. I could notice pain in her eyes, but i didn't care.
"So, it is all true?", she breathed.
"Hey, Anna or whatever your name is, go back to your back and be the witch doctor that you are. There are many sick and wounded werewolves to treat. You aren't welcome here!", I huffed and she gritted.
"The last time I saw you, you were the Luna of the Shadow pack. Dolph is the alpha and your mate. Rumours have been going around, but i don't want to believe it till I've seen it with my own eyes. For real, it was all true. You are now a demon", She exclaimed, with a raised brow.
"Get lost!", I scoffed and turned back to Oliver who was dragging himself away. I jacked him up and punched his face twice so hard that he fainted immediately.
I released my grip, allowing him to fall freely on the floor while i smirked and raised the sword to stab his heart. I must kill him today.
Just as I brought it down to dig his heart, a great force pushed me away, making me land on my butt...
What the hell???
My eyes glinted in fury. I felt ashamed and furious.
Who the hell did that?
I sprang up and turned to see it was Anna.
"I'm not going to let you kill anyone in my presence, you cruel Demon!", she saw me, making a stance to fight me.
"Oh, since you choos to die with them, I'll kill you first!", I huffed and moved my head, causing Oliver's sword to strike at her. She succeeded in dodging it, but i gave her no chance to regain her composure before spreading dark magic all over her.
I quickly spread my palm and five serpents crawled out of my body through my palm...
I gestured at the witch and they all crawled to her body.
I smiled evily, then turned back to Oliver.
"Let's end this once and for all", I gritted.
"Scarlett, I'm here!!", I heard a familiar voice, which made me turn. I smiled widely, seeing it was Trump from the dragon clan, the one who got the powers to kill Layla.
"Oh yay!", I gave a sly grin.
"I won't hesitate", he smiled.
"Hey, five of you", i gestured at the guards around me.
I giggled. "Show him the place where Layla is, also bring the weakling Aloha Dolph here, let's kill them all together before the pack members".
"Yes, it would be great that way", Trump laughed.
"This is the key!", I said as I flung it at him.
"Take advantage of the opportunity to bring them out here to kill", i instructed, and he made a short laugh.
"You must be underestimating me though. I don't think I need to click any button before killing those two. I'm the beta for the great dragon clan", he boasted and I chuckled.
"All good, go get her here", I grinned before turning to the crowd.
I spread my arms and they all cheered and hailed me with screams and whistles. I felt so great.
Trump's POV,
I felt giddy with happiness. My heart thumped at each step into the Royal Packhouse. Killing Liam's child would mean one thing: that i could still get the throne I crave so much.
The guards were walking with me and I felt like sending them away. It was useless to have those people around me. Without them, I could capture, blind, kill Layla and the Alpha without stress in a few seconds. "Who should we lead you to first?", one of the guards asked, making me chuckle.
I let out a short laugh. "I can do this without your help. I can sense the presence of both Dolph and Layla, including Noah. It's useless to follow me around to do this".
Even after what I said, i made my way to the dungeon where the Alpha king must be, the guards still followed me to the dungeon.
Well, I don't give a damn...
Finally, I got to where the fucking dungeon was and one of the guards moved forward to unlock the door, but before he could do that, I gave the damn door a heavy blow, which broke it away instantly, leaving them all awed.
I got in to meet the trembling alpha, the same man who had been feared and respected by almost all the pack, someone who had been so powerful that his name was heard even in the dragon clan. I giggled and moved closer while he shivered the more.
"Is it time already?", I heard him mumble as tears fell off his eyes.
"Oh, yes. It is time for your death and the death of your pack members. You never saw your end coming right?", I giggled sarcastically.
He yelped and sniffed, trying hard to hold his tears.
Layla would be murdered by me, i laughed again, motioning for the guards to drag him out.
They did it immediately while I swagger off to Layla and Noah. I could already feel my blood boiling. I was so curious and eager to reach the room and drag them out. Killing her was surely going to be a great victory for me.
I got back to the seat and started to climb up the stairs to get to Layla, who must be in a caged room. I had just taken three steps forward when i heard some footsteps.
My eyes were down to ground, so I quickly raised them, wondering who was that since everyone was outside watching the interesting event going on outside.
My eyes widened. As I saw three people standing at the stairwell staring back at me, i was taken aback and confused.
I arched my brow, moving my gaze from one to another, trying to believe I wasn't dreaming.
Layla, Noah and Alexa were standing right there with their fists clenched and their contorted with great anger. That caused the atmosphere to get hot...
I don't understand, but deep in me, i felt great fear the very moment i set my eyes on the so-called Layla.
I had never met her before, but I didn't need anyone to tell me it was her. Her face had a striking resemblance to Evelyn's and her body features like that of King Liam. I turned to Noah and saw his eyes bloodshot with anger. "Trump, what are you doing here?", Alexa asked me with a raised brow.
"I should be asking you that....what are you doing in the Shadow pack?", i asked, trying to sound bold, but my tone was disgracing me. The enraged faces of Noah and Layla were just making me full of fear.

"You sent me away from the Dragon Clan, you threatened my life and that of my family. You don't have the guts to ask me how I am faring!"she shrilled.
"What?!!", Noah huffed, his eyes glistening.
"Alexa, are you...", my words were cut short by a very strong blow that landed right on my chest, breaking my ribs immediately.
I fell to the ground with a shout of pain. I stood up again and found out Noah hadn't moved an inch.
I was more than confused.
"You said you will kill me and my family once you set your eyes on me again. You have seen me. Would I die?", Alexa inquired, and this time it was Layla, who loomed over me with a grim expression.
I rose and sent three fireballs to her heart and to my greatest shock, they didn't penetrate her body, causing a rush of terror to sweep through me.
There is only one person who has the power to stop a fireball from penetrating into their body. That person is King Liam. How can Layla have these same powers as Liam?
She gripped my neck and without stress, lifted me off the ground.
"I'll kill you since you plan on killing her instead!", i tried everything I could to break free from her grip, but it was impossible, her powers were strange and unusual for a young girl like her.
Her grip got tighter, making me convulse and waver with a gasp for breath.
"Who are you?", she asked, staring at me with a raised eyebrow.
I couldn't reply, so she used her other hand to send two punches to my face, making me bleed from my nose immediately. Intense pain rushed through me and I felt like crying...
The blood rolled down then got into my mouth. The taste of my blood made me enraged. I clenched my fists and widened my eyes.
"Won't you talk?", she asked, still gripping my neck.
"Go to hell!!", I yelled and gave her a heavy headbutt that pushed her away from me. She fell to her butt and i took some seconds to catch my breath.
"I think I underestimated you, but I'm going to show you what i am made of!", I roared and half shifted into my dragon.
"Don't dare touch her or I'll kill you myself", I heard the voice of Noah.
"You both can't defeat me", I howled, making a short laugh.
"I don't need his help. Come fight me if you can", Layla chipped in with a smirk, and i nodded.
I charged at her with full force, so fast as the wind, but then i jammed the wall instead as she easily shifted to the other side. I swirled and made another attempt with more speed than I had ever had. She dodged the punch and gave me a deep cut with her claws.
I could swear I did not see that coming. She was dodging and attacking at the same time, which is stunning.
I spat fire, and she spread her arms causing a restraining force to encircle her. With more energy, i poured out the liquid fire, causing her great heat, and I knew i only had one more attempt before she was razed.
I made a huge smirk before spurging out the great fire on the restrain. It broke immediately, causing the fire to fill in.
I went on for a few more seconds to be sure she got burnt but then, there was no one there.
My eyes glistened in shock because I was sure i had given her no chance.
I was still wondering what happened when a sharp pain seared through my back. I howled in pain and turned abruptly to strike the person unexpectedly, but yet, she was quick to dodge and sent a heavy kick to my belly instead.

"You can't waste our time", i heard Alexa's voice, and just then, she sat on my belly and sent multiple punches to my face.
"Evil would be erased. Everyone who has evil in me would cease to exist since you let evil remain in you. Don't blame me", she gruffed and widened her eyes. A bright light emanated from it and shone directly into my eyes, making me shut my eyes tightly.
The light was like poison to my skin as it inflicted great torture on me. I opened my mouth to scream, but then she touched my neck and i lost my power of speech.
"Remember, I am Alexa the Dragon from the tribe of magicians", she smirked and left me in pain with an inability to scream.
I could only shed tears and roll on the floor. I looked around for the demons which I had seen all around the house, but felt hopeless and frustrated seeing all their bodies laying dead all over the floor.
Noah had used his great powers to burn them down, just like Liam.
Oh gosh...
I can't believe this is happening!
Layla's POV,
"Let's go now before Scarlett does the worst. I need to save my father and my brother Oliver. He has sacrificed a lot for me", I cried out, recalling all that Alexa told me, all the plans and risks he took to save me. I don't know what his fate is now that he has to wrestle with Scarlett just to save me.
Would he survive?
"Yes, let's go!", They both nodded and we let go, leaving the so-called Trump, who had just succeeded in wasting our time.
Great fury is all I feel in me. It's just been a day since I and Noah were caged in there and now I can't recognize the Royal packhouse. It looked more like a demon den. I haven't seen a single werewolf around, just demons.
We go out and I felt stuck at the sight. Everywhere was in ruins, houses were razed down, the roads had piles of dead bodies, the bodies of werewolves ranging from the maids to palace guards and omegas.
"Oh no", I cried out, feeling my anger soar.
"Let's go and end that devil!!!", I screamed, breathing heavily.
I don't care about anything right now, not even my life. I want the death of Scarlett and I'm doing anything possible to see her breathe her last breath as I dig out her evil heart.
Scarlett's POV,
I made out a short laugh of victory as the so-called powerful Alpha Dolph was dragged up to the stage by the demons.
Everyone was shocked to see him that way. I grinned in satisfaction. They were all wagging their heads in awe at how powerful I must be to bring down the powerful Alpha.
I couldn't stop feeling giddy as i looked at the crowd who stared at me.
"So the next would be Layla...", I chuckled and turned to the guards who had brought Dolph.
"Where is Trump with Layla and Noah?", I asked, and they frowned, looking around.
"He should be there by now. We stopped on the way to get some drugs, so Dolph won't die on the way. Since you want his death to be in front of everyone, we thought Trump must have passed by and reached here before us", I heard the response from one of them and got disturbed instantly.
I hate long stories at the moment when things are going well. Just now, when i needed to end it all...
"What are you saying?....Where is Layla?", I yelled at them in exasperation. I badly needed to end Layla's life!
"Here i am", i heard her voice, the voice of Layla and turned sharply only for me to see Noah, Layla and Alexa, the same woman who was Evelyn's maiden. They all bad dragons wings descending to the stage with fury in their eyes. Is this real?
