Searching for Cory
Nebula entered his house and the first voice that greeted him was Combo’s.
“And where are you coming from?” Combo thundered, and his voice shook the room walls.
“And how is that your business? Who does it concern you? ” Nebula asked, he was not bothered about Combo’s anger, it seemed he had gotten used to it.
“How is it my business? Nebula, did you just ask me that question?” Combo raved.
“Am not in the mood for this, ” Nebula hissed at Combo.
……….
Asher stood quietly by the door, observing their argument from a distance.
He was also shocked at first when Combo told him that Nebula was missing, but he knew that Como must have done something wrong first because Nebula is a gentle and easygoing man.
Asher was about to go and search for Nebula when he suddenly appeared.
………..
“Hey bro, are you alright? ” Asher asked Nebula, he looked really worried.
“I am fine, thanks for asking, ” Nebula thanked the worried Asher.
‘Hey, you! Shut up your mouth and get out of here, can’t you see that I am talking to him!” Combo snarled at his younger brother, revealing his sharp fangs.
“So sorry,” Asher apologized and quickly ran out of the room.
“Whatever, that is your problem to deal with, ” Nebula whizzed and attempted to climb the stairs.
“Where the hell are you going to? I am not done with my scolding yet, and you haven’t answered my questions!” Combo thundered at Nebula, his eyes were burning in anger.
“I don’t have your time now, moreover I am not a little boy, so stop scolding me, I have the right to exercise my freedom of movement, so please stop monitoring and controlling my everyday movement! ” Nebula replied harshly, his face didn’t look friendly at all.
“Oh, I get it now,” Combo laughed menacingly. “So you’ve suddenly realized that you no longer have my time, huh?” he asked with a hurt voice.
“Yes, I don’t have time for your madness, so just stop it! ” Nebula said and turned to leave the room.
“My madness! Nebula, are you crazy? How dare you call me a madman!” Combo roared at him.
“Don’t talk to me like that?!” Nebula replied harshly.
Combo didn’t take his reply nicely, and he pushed Nebula to the walls, the both of them started growling and swearing at each other.
“Guys, please calm down, there is no need to quarrel, okay? ” Asher said peacefully as he came out of his room.
Combo kept quiet and stared at Nebula: rage, pain, and remorse filled his eyes. But Nebula didn’t feel the same way, he just hissed and left the house, slamming the door angrily.
“Oh look,” Asher smiled and pointed at the door, “you’ve managed to send him out of the house, congratulations, ” He mocked and left the room, shaking his head in disapproval of his big brother’s behavior.
Combo also bowed his head in shame.
……..
“Am sick and tired of him! Am tired of his overbearing and jealous attitudes, ” Nebula murmured and cursed quietly.
He didn’t know where to go, so he kept wandering around the town, hitting every stone he found in his path.
The town was quite large, and it had many beautiful places. Both Humans and vampires lived there together.
Cory Biber was the leader of the vampires before he decided to leave the town.
Nebula walked into a small bar shop and ordered beers. He is not a very good drinker and he only drinks alcohol when his mind is troubled or when he feels heartbroken.
After taking a little slip of the alcohol, Nebula fell into a deep slumber.
Unknown Pov (Nighttime)
Lolo was kneeling in front of Ralph Lauren and Combo Cambridge. While the other men; German, Killer, Micheal, and Dennis surrounded her.
The atmosphere was tense, and the men looked furious.
Besides Combo, different weapons like knives, daggers, guns, and cutlasses were arranged.
“You failed in the assignments! What do you have to say” Ralph Lauren asked with a shameful grin, but Lolo did not reply, she continued to bow her head.
“Who will protect you now?” Ralph asked mischievously. He placed his feet on Lolo’s head and burst into laughter, the other men also joined the laughter, except for Combo who decided to remain quiet.
“You can kill me, but know this, you will never be able to defeat Cory, because he is more powerful than you. Also, he made you who you are today, without his help you would have died on the streets, ” Lolo said in pain, her back was on fire, but still, she decided to endure it all.
“Hmm, Cory! Oh, Cory! Your little sister needs your help!” Ralph taunted her and burst into sarcastic laughter. “I guess he is too busy to care about you; don’t worry, I will bury you beside his grave so that your wretched soul can find a little peace! ” He laughed out loud. Suddenly, he raised his hand, ready to stab Lolo.
“Wait, Stop!” Combo ordered, and the men were shocked. Lolo also raised her head, wondering if Combo wanted to save her life.
She locked eyes with Combo, but his face looked cold and expressionless.
“What is the matter Commando?” Ralph asked with his eyes wide open.
“I want to end her life myself, I want to bring out her heart with my bare hands, I need to have a pounce on her flesh! I want to kill her today!” Combo said hatred, spite, and anger filled his voice. And he landed a brain-hacking slap on her cheeks.
It felt as though Lolo was floating in the air because that slap scattered her brain; she couldn’t feel her legs anymore.
Combo gripped her neck, strangling her. Lolo tried to fight back, but it was an impossible mission.
Slowing, she could feel her soul leaving her.
“Die already!” Combo screamed and bit her cheeks aggressively.
“Ahahaha! Ahh!” Lolo screamed in misery, wondering what she had done to get Combo so angry and worked up.
“Please spare me, ” she choked as she spoke, her eyes were already closing, and all she could see was a dark room, her vision was turning blur; also her legs were shaking their last.
“I don’t spare sluts like you!” Combo growled and slammed her body on the cold ground.
“Oh oh! Lolo, the strong enchanting evil queen looks so pathetic, she has messed with the wrong person,” German whispered to Asher and Killer.
“Yeah, what has she done this time? Commando looks so furious, am sure her sharp tongue has left her, ” Killer whispered back.
“She will die, she must have taken Combo’s favorite candy, ” Asher murmured and did the Catholic cross sign on his chest.
“Hey Dennis, aren’t you going to save your girlfriend?” Michael taunted the relaxed Dennis.
However, Dennis ignored him and smiled broadly.
“Oh see, he is even smiling, while his wife is dying, ” Killer joked and burst into laughter, but Dennis’s sharp evil eyes told him that the joke was not funny.
“Hey, she is not my wife, neither is she my girlfriend!
She is just a random bitch I knack whenever I feel hot, bored, or stressed, ” Dennis mocked Lolo.
The other men were surprised, but they kept quiet.
“Die!” Combo raised his hand, he was ready to remove Lolo’s heart.
Suddenly the door was pushed open, and a mighty voice thundered.
“Don’t you dare!”
