"What do you want to know?" He asked then he continued walking.

"Why do you have an army?" Brylee was the first one to ask.

"One, to protect the mountain. Two, to find the descendants. Three, to protect them." He gave them a direct answer.

"If the descendants have gifts, why the need to protect them?" This time it was Briony who asked. 

"Even though they have gifts, not everyone could protect themselves like you. Not all have physical strengths and speed. You'll find out what I mean when you started to meet them. For now, you cannot meet everyone since they are in the city." He replied with his thick accent.

"You said you protect them, from who?" Brina asked in a way that one could tell that the gears in her head are working.

"Humans," He casually said as he continued to walk on a never-ending land of snow. The sun is shining but it did nothing to warm them.

"Humans?" Bianca looks astounded. 

"Supernatural may seemed to be powerful and greedy at the beginning but as years gone by and humans had taken over the world they become more powerful and greedy. They wouldn't be on top of the food chain if they were not."  He speaks as if he has a deep hatred towards humans.

"Aren't you human?" Brylee asked making Gavril laugh.

"You do not understand it, do you?" He said with a mocking tone.

Lorcan Villan trained his five nieces to become bounty hunters just like him without the knowledge of their overprotective, distrustful father, his brother. They were strong, smart, assertive, ruthless, bloodthirsty, and curious. Those were the traits of his nieces and he believed that they just wanted to become bounty hunters to quench their thirst for adventure. But little did he know that his nieces possess special gifts that they wanted to put into use by bounty hunting. 

And as they hunt for fugitives, they unexpectedly encountered people that could tell them where and to whom they got their gifts.

They will soon realize that there is a better way to utilize their gifts and that is to protect themselves from those who are hunting them.

If not on the hunt, Bell spends a huge amount of her time in her office which is located on the top floor of the five-star hotel where their main fine dining restaurant is.

Bell's office is not too big or not too small. Enough to fit a huge wooden desk and a sofa and two accent chairs in front of it. Behind her desk is a decorative shelf that also works as a concealed door leading to a bedroom with a full bathroom which Bell uses every after her hunt.

"Do you think there is a whole pack of extraordinary superhuman beings out there that is hunting us?" Brylee asks while sitting with both her feet raised on the sofa. That afternoon, after getting sated from making desserts all day she decided to take a break by hanging out in Bell's office.

Bell just looked at Brylee over her lashes without lifting her head from the reports that she is reading.

"You are watching too many sci-fi movies," she said indifferently then she continued working.
