Power To Resist

Chapter 2

"Xenon. You listening to me?" Ajax nudges on my arm forcing me out of my thoughts and throwing a dirty look in his direction.

His dark brown eyes were clear and slightly aggravated due to me not listening to him and zoning out of his unimportant conversation. The tuxedo he was wearing made him look clean and organized.

The irony of his outfit though because he was literally the slob of the partnership.

Ajax was my partner in our jobs. We were a.s.signed to be with one another in the academy and it hasn"t changed since then.

The professor thought it would have been hilarious to place the only woman with the stupidest man in our cla.s.s, his words not mine. Now that we are the top two killers in the organization, the teacher was our personal... kill.

More like a pleasure for myself because everyone, including the teachers, ridiculed me for what gender I was. Which in a way I was thankful since they only pushed me harder and harder in the end.

Ajax was the same in the beginning but once I showed him who was the leader of our partnership, he learned quickly not to anger me once again.

"No." I simply answer him, shifting my attention away from the window and clasping my hands in front of me. "I don"t care that you are the a.s.sistant of a big corporation Ajax. If I did, I would have asked." I remind him of my indifference causing him to frown at me.

He had black hair that curled a little bit around the sides and top, it looked much like a wave that never seemed to unfold itself. I couldn"t help but think if he trimmed it he could probably get a better undercover position.

Though it"s not like my role is any better.

"You know. One of these days I hope you meet someone who is going to kick you off your high horse." He chuckles humorlessly when I narrowed my eyes at him and watched him sip on his drink.

"And I hope you shove your foot so far up your a.s.s that you throw it up." I sneer back making him roll his eyes at my words.

"You know. I"ve been with you ever since academy and yet I don"t know anything about you. You know my name and practically my life yet I only know your name and that you are a girl. That"s all." He comments giving me a pointed look while I scoffed and crossed my arms across my chest.

"Yes. I do know. I don"t tell you anything because you don"t need to know anything to get a job done. Now, I"ve got to go and find our target. Do you want to hunt or you want to remain here and find a chick to screw with?" I ask him, not in the mood for his c.r.a.p today and really just wanting to settle my needs to kill someone.


"Nah. I"m going hang around here for a while. There"s a sweet smell in the air and I would love to bring them home later." Ajax purrs, licking his sharpening fangs while I sighed and slipped out of the booth we were sharing.

"I swear to G.o.d that if this girl gets an obsession with you-"

"Relax Xenon. That girl was crazy. Plus I apologized for her kidnapping you anyway." Ajax waved off reminding me of the crazy blonde that had kidnapped me because we were playing an undercover couple on a cruise.

"You wondered why we were undercover siblings this time around." I sigh, rubbing my temples in annoyance before tossing a few dollars on the table for a tip. "I"ll be hunting." Ajax nodded me off, sipping more of his drink as I walked out of the Diner we were inside of.

I scanned the roads, looking for any suspicious people or situations around me. My paranoia causing me to hold my bag close to my body.

Ajax was so careless and that was so bad for him to be.

One day he will be caught if he doesn"t take my warnings seriously. Either that or he will be murdered by the countless women whose hearts have been broken by him.

Hopefully the latter, but he is my partner and we work as an excellent team since he is the talker and I am the killer.

That"s our team and sadly, everyone else is scared of me so I have to put up with him.

But hopefully...

One day I"ll be able to flourish without a partner.

〰〰〰

A menacing laugh left my throat while I sliced through another poor wolf, the blood splattering on my face as a sharp howl rang through the air.

"Oh, I"ve forgotten how glorious it is to kill you pathetic wolves!" I scream happily, throwing a dagger towards a wolf who was charging at me.

Their faces when I intruded in their fight with the rogues. Of course, I didn"t spare the good or bad wolves.

It didn"t matter whether they were a good soul or a horrible one like mine.

I was already dehydrated from killing.

It was time to be energized.

"Who the h.e.l.l are you?!" The man a few feet away from me said with sharp authority said making me glance over at him and hood my eyes more.

"The name is Xenon. I am here to kill your beloved Alpha." I giggled more to myself when sharpening my nails into piercing claws, feeling my bones and adrenaline spike up from my transformation. "It"d be best not to anger the beast, love. I"ll murder you and all your loved ones right in front of you then I will sink my teeth into your precious skin and let you bleed to death!" I yelled s.a.d.i.s.tically, the mask hiding my face not revealing the evil grin.

The man seemed taken aback by my answer when I quickly slip the knife from my sleeve and threw it at him. It sliced through his arm making him yelp in pain and clench his now bleeding shoulder.

"Xenon... I"ve heard of that name... You"re with the league of a.s.sa.s.sins." The man who acted so brave before questions while I took large confidant steps towards him.

"Of course, dear. I"ve preyed on thousands like you and after you and your pack are dead, I"ll be able to achieve wealth like no other. I will bathe in blood, I will drink the tears of children, I will be unstoppable." I smirk, catching the man"s glowing blue eyes before sending him to the ground with my foot.

"No... You won"t get away with killing our Alpha. He is my cousin! He will find and kill you!" The man shouts when I frowned and glared down at the man who was equaling my gaze.

We remained silent for many moments, just glaring at one another while I scoffed and took a step back and s.n.a.t.c.hed my knife from the man"s arm. He released a high pitched cry and scrambled away, clearly in pain from the beating I just gave him.

"Baxter! Where the f.u.c.k-"

"Sounds like my fun has been disturbed." I sigh deeply, slipping my knife into my boot and crossing my arms. "Is that the so-called cousin that will kill me? It"s nice to know I don"t have to stay here long. I"d prefer making the kill more... Sinister. Excuse me, dear. I"ll be taking my leave." I backed away, looking at the dead bodies on the ground I"ve caused and grinning happily at my show of dominance.

"You won"t get away with this." Baxter choked out, his arm bleeding profoundly when I waved to him in an innocent way.

"That"s exactly what the last man said to me," I told the man, backing away from the bodies and disappearing within the dark forest just as the other men and wolves appeared.

〰〰〰

I sat in my office, flipping through a file of papers that gave me information on the Alpha of the Vera pack.

Ajax was currently absent due to a woman catching his attention, thank G.o.d he was at her home and not here otherwise the poor girl would literally die.

So, it was just me at home and alone without anyone to bother me while I searched through my files.

The files told me the Alpha"s relatives who were alive and what he did in his everyday life. It had only told me that he had an aunt, two cousins, and his parents who killed rogues as a sport.

Hopefully, they can"t scent off that Ajax or myself is a rogue but we"ve been trained to unconsciously to hide our scents with humans. It was easier for me to hide in the crowds but hard for Ajax since he is a wolf.

It actually makes me wonder whether Ajax is hot to women or he uses his authority to convince them to spend the night with him.

The thought made me stop reading and look up at the phone in front of me, slightly tempted to text him and ask since the question never arose in my mind beforehand.

But, it wouldn"t surprise me if women see him attractive since he is quite literally the definition of a f.u.c.k boy.

Like if you looked up a picture of a f.u.c.k boy, his face would be plastered all over the page. Funny enough, all the women"s hearts he"s ever broken made him a website that ridicules him. Of course, it was the funniest thing to me but rather than hurting his ego. It boasted Ajax"s c.o.c.kiness only irritating me even more.

He even responds to the comments on the website.

That"s the worst part of the whole situation.

Now I don"t even get involved, letting himself get in trouble and humiliated on the internet.

Ding Dong.

I glanced around, seeing it was only nine in the afternoon making me curious about who it was at the door. Carefully, I slipped the files within my draws before sneaking the knife in my desk into my bra knowing it would be the last place anyone would check.

Not wanting to seem shady, I hurried out of the room and down the steps. The scent of fire coming from whoever was outside. The scent almost pleasant like a campfire that always seemed to bring only good memories...

Of burning bodies.

I opened the door, my heartbeat stopping for a moment seeing who I least expected to see.
