The assassin

Despite the world having eyes out for this wolf no one made it their job to hunt her down, accept for Roman Deckard and his team.

Financial security of a strong established company allowed him to go on as many hunting trips as he pleased and has hunted every trophy there is, accept the werewolf.

When something invades the lives of man kind they tend to get someone to rat it out, get rid of it, if its a plague they use poison, if its a n animal it gets hunted down.

Roman was among one of the first official hunters who set out to Nevada, but the military aleardy saw to it that that pack was dealt with, but the discovery of the second pack in Switzerland opened the season again, and he had to get him a trophy.

The military wasn't that involved in the hunting of the second pack, so it was the locals who managed to gun them down until there was only one left, and now Roman was Hell bent on getting her.

She gave him the slip in Alaska but by now he knew her like his own daughter, knew how she ran and what she would think, and she was a lot like a sheep, following the flock, although instead of a flock she used roads and of course the very easiest way to escape.

So in this case it was a fairy to England, the woman had a strong bond with a motorcycle and Roman always looked for the place where she stashed it before the moon, but never once did he manage to succeed until his bloodhounds lead him to the spot at the end of the night.

She was cute but Roman didn't fall for her act, saving the baby boy from the building was a way of fooling man, there's no such thing as a compassionate werewolf, not in his mind, so no matter what kind deed she does, Roman will treat her like the trophy hes been hunting for two years now, nothing more.

Now though he stood at that motel across the street realising something is different in the way she moved, the camera footage was deleted? That's too careful of her, which means she has a companion with a sense if wit with her.

Thinking he finally hit a dead end his phone rang.

"Deckard?"

"Are you the so called hunter from Deckard industries hunting down that werewolf?"

"That's me"

"I have a location for her, but you won't like it"

"What do you want out of this info?"

"Nothing, merely a werewolf dead and buried"

Roman turned and headed hack to his pickup "I'm listening"

Nicolas sank his hand over his eyes, the thought of hurting Belladonna was painful enough, now he couldn't fathom the idea of becoming a vampire just to keep her safe, what did a man do to deserve this?

"You poor soul, so starstruck in love it makes me sick" Deno said next to him.

"You kidding me?"

"No, they always spout that shit of love being the most powerful force in the universe but they forget to add that its so strong in fact that it bloodywell hurts when you lose it"

"I don't want to hear your past philosophies Deno, how do we protect Bella?"

"I'll protect Bella"

"She's damwell afraid of you"

"Yes! Which is perfect, I don't want the girl close to me anyway, she should just be a good puppy and allow me to slay her demons"

"You sound excited"

"I am! I'm finally on a path to get back at those miscreants called my family and I'll make sure I enjoy every moment of it" he said and answered his ringing phone "Deno speaking?"

"Deno its Saria"

He flinched "Then why the bloody Hell leave me your number when you have mine!? Is his some kind of joke!?"

"I just wanted to show you I can touch your precious Lambo that's all"

"Pff! Hope it made you wet" he said killing the line.

"Saria?" Nicolas asked.

"Yes, nosy little Van Hellsing"

His phone rang again.

"Hello!?"

"Just so you know Wayne is already inside the compound"

"Lead with that you insolent fool!" He yelled jumping out of the pickup.

Tony sat watching this man who came knocking out of nowhere, tall and brisk, he seemed a little deranged but maybe that was because of some sort of drug he was on.

"Is there something specific you're looking for?" He asked.

Wayne slowly lifted his hand, then his finger pointed at Belladonna "Her"

Tony frowned "She's not up for grabs asshole pick another!"

"No, I came here to kill her"

The men in the room lifted their weapons but Wayne moved, Bella could follow his sudden burst of speed and ducked just in time when a knife swung to her neck.

She rolled away but the large man was relentless until Tony had him by his hair and jerked hom away from her.

"You fucking piece of shit!"

Wayne turned and struck Tony, his large bulk too heavy for a lift but he still staggered under that blow and crashed onto a couch.

One of his men took aim and fired but in a blur Wayne was out of its way, the rifleman blinked readjusting his aim and fired again, making sure he didn't hit anyone else, but to no avail, Wayne was too fast.

"Careful of crossfire!" Tony screamed getting up with his pistol, Wayne was on top of Bella who violently kicked at him both legs together, but astonished she saw that didn't even phase him, regardless of her immense strength as a werewolf.

Wayne grabbed her hand and lifted a silver knife, her eyes went wide realising this is it, not only did this man move like a wolf, he knew how to kill one as well, she closed her eyes but the blow never came.

"Ah, it seems I made it just in time" Deno said holding that wrist with the knife.

Bella scurrled away from Wayne and went to stand behind Tony.

"Let me go!" Wayne said jerking and tugging.

"How about... No" Deno said and broke his arm.

Wayne screamed dropping the knife, Deno left him to move away but kicked the knife out if his reach.

"Who!? Who are you!?" Wayne pleaded.

"My name is Deno Christosemau, you must have heard of me?"

"Impossible..."

"Oh I assure you I'm the one and only" Deno said walking after him as he sailed on the floor trying to make distance.

"Please! Spare me! I'm here on orders from Guile!"

"I know, and don't worry I'll spare you" he said striking Wayne unconscious.

Deno turned to Tony who stood with his pistol aimed, behind him Bella was again scared senseless and refused to come out.

"Okay its time we talk Belladonna" he said.

She blinked.

"Didn't you wonder why this man was so strong?"

She slowly peeked from behind Tony and shook her head.

"Come before me, don't be afraid, I mean you no harm"

Nicolas burst into the room and saw the man unconscious "That him!?"

"Yes indeed, I made it just in time, but now I need your help Nicolai" Deno said looking at Bella, she was so frightened even the appearance of Nicolas couldn't shake the fear.

"Bella, its okay, he's a friend"

"He's, a monster, I can't explain it..." She said slowly coming around Tony "I can't hear your heart... You're supposed to be dead!"

Deno smiled at her only but Tony stepped forward "What are you? To have a werewolf stricken with fear?"

Deno sighed "Will you all keep me a secret if I say? If my secret is spilled here I'll have no trouble killing all of you remember that"

"You're the one who will die if you don't talk!" Tony yelled.

Deno smiled "Well then, go ahead, shoot me"

"Deno! Don't speak out of line now!" Nicolas said.

"Shoot him!" Bella yelled and Tony answered her call the pistol in his hand boomed but again Deno remained standing.

"What the?" Tony said and fired again, for no effect.

"Okay enough! He's not here to hurt anyone!" Nicolas said going to stand in front of Deno, now finally Bella's fearful gaze broke and she blinked "Deno just saved you all from this guy! His name is Wayne and he was sent to assassinate Belladonna!"

"An assassin!?" Tony asked lowering his pistol.

"Yes... And..."

Deno gave Nicolas a glancing slap over his head "What my dear associate is trying to say is that he came here earlier today to tell Bella of this attempt at her life, but couldn't"

Belladonna looked at Nicolas sadly.

"Its not that! I didn't want to put any more worry on you Bella, I want you to be happy"

"Then what if he was able to kill me?"

"He would not have succeeded..." Deno said and she frowned at him.

"Today is... Surge day after all am I right my dear wolf?"

She swallowed "How, did you know that term?"
