Chapter Thirty Five - Reflection Of Demonic Powers

"Please." Austin says. "We are rogues, we need food. We are very tired."

"Yes please." Henry says in a rough tone. "Please, we are dying of hunger."

"Are these all of you? Just four?" One of the security wolves shout at them. "Four without any master or leader?"

----

"Kellie, seems someone is being yelled. Will you go check what's up?" Alfred says.

"You're very stupid." George retorts. "Go there, dude, and save them! Are you nuts?"

Festus readjusts his sitting position as he walks up to Alfred.

"What is it, Festus?" Alfred asks, standing face to face with him. "Why are you grinning?"

George snickers real hard as he knows what Festus is about to do.

"Tell me something." Kellie whispers. "You're a demon, I know. So, tell me something."

George seems a bit shocked but he cuddles Kellie up to himself.

"Don't tell anyone, please. And, do all those Betas know for real?"

"No." Kellie retorts. "They don't. They are only pretending to know."

"Oh, that is good." George replies. "Thank you."

Without much ado, Festus spits on his forehead and he moves inches back. Festus moves near him and lands him slaps on his chin, spitting on his forehead and face again. George giggles till it graduates to some kind of maniacal laughter.

"Festus, it's alright." Kellie giggles, and moves up to their fighting scene.

"I swear.... Fest.. Festus!" Alfred stutters, and wipes the saliva off of his face with his hands.

"My friend, get out of here!" Festus shrieks. "And meet them at the gate, bloody idiot!"

"Butthead." Alfred retorts and as Festus moves to him to spit on his forehead again, George blocks his way. Festus doesn't seem to be laughing unlike Kellie and George.

"Please...." George pleads, blocking his way and stifling giggles. "... don't, anymore. He might retaliate."

"Thanks, boss." Alfred says.

"Don't thank me." George replies, still pleading with Festus and standing in front of him. "I am not supporting you."

"Then we obviously won't work together." Alfred retorts, shrugs, stands up and dusts his clothes. "We can't. We should be parting now."

"Hey idiot." Kellie shouts at him. "Should you be talking in this manner? You don't have any manners!"

"It's the audacity for me." Alfred fumes, and proceeds to where's she's standing beside George. "Fuck you."

"Fuck you too." George turns his back to Festus and faces Alfred. "What guts have you had to think we are actually same?"

"What guts have you had to think you're bigger than I am? Who are you? An Alpha of the whole packs in London, UK, America, Europe?" Alfred scoffs. "We are the same. If you don't cooperate, then we can't work together."

"May moon goddess strike you!" Festus says, jerking George off of his front as he leaps forward and hits Alfred.

Alfred, who's been successfully hit because he was caught off guard, retorts, "I know you have the demon power, Festus."

Thunder rumbles and lightning streaks across the hut once he says this.

"Little do you know that we are still connected to one another in a way." Alfred continues.

Festus tries to hide his fear, his lips quavering and running out of words instead. Since he forces himself to talk, then he stutters.

"What.... what?"

"Don't show your fear. Kellie told me they only do that to verify if you really are." George tells Festus in his mind link and it is very loud in his mind since they are so close to each other.

"Okay, I'll try not to." Festus retorts.

"I'm not a demon, Alfred. I'm eight years older than you are." Festus blinks his eyes as he approaches him with a soft tone. "Don't think I am, okay? Now, go meet the other four and let them know you need food."

Alfred smirks, "You're trying not to have the conversation, I get. But, know this and know peace, I know you're a demon. Wanna know how I know?"

"No." The three of them chorus.

"Just go!" Festus yells at him and as he wants to spit on his forehead, he runs out if the hut with his feet scurrying.

"How did he know that?" Festus gesticulates to George, not wanting Kellie to know.

"Kellie knows. We can say anything out. She's a good mate. Or else, she'd have revealed the fact."

"But, seriously, Festus, you should have taken your smell off before the power was placed on you." Kellie says, and they all sit on the ground.

"I didn't know when I was given the power."

"George, why didn't you tell him?"

"I didn't give the power."

"Huh?"

"Someone else did." George replies. "That same person gave me the demon power."

"Festus, here are my observations." Kellie tells him. "Since you're still connected to your Betas, any power you have, they will have."

"What!!" Festus exhales.

"Really?" George asks. "Where did you get the observation?"

"From a red wolf." She replies. "While at the wasteland."

"Wow, you've really known about demon stuff ever since then?"

"Yes, but I kept it secret." She replies. "No knowledge is wasted."

"So you mean that's why Alfred is retorting sharply at me?" Festus asks, drawing nearer since an object flashes through the spooky door the hut's got.

"Yes." Kellie replies. "And again, your power to be able to shift was withdrawn by them. Whether intentionally or not. If not for the moon goddess, you wouldn't get those powers anymore until you kill all your Betas."

"This is..." George comments while Festus clicks his tongue. "... this is dope."

"Maybe. Maybe not." Kellie replies.

Festus clears his throat, and speaks up, "I noticed something as well, but that's if you're right with your point."

"Yes, she's right." George replies. "Kelvin just affirmed that, and I think I now know what you notice?"

"What did I notice?" Festus asks, bemusedly.

"That Kellie, my mate..." George says, and stops talking, abruptly.

"What happened to Kelly?" Kellie asks, cuddling up against him. "What did Kelvin say about me?"

"That..." George stutters, signaling to Festus for them to say it once - chorus it to affirm the word. He nods his head and sighs to the gestures.

"That you also have the demon power!" They chorus, and for some minutes, Kellie becomes silent. She slowly frees herself from George as she drops totally to the ground, squatting and sighing.

"Kellie, you don't have to be sad." Festus says. "Though, you can only break off from this if you break up with your mate."

Kellie raises up her eyes at Festus immediately, her eyes have turned red, she rolls them at him and spits on his forehead.

"Can you see?" Festus chuckles. "That's one of the abilities. That's one of our tastes, spitting on our foreheads."

"Damn." Kellie says, and sobs. "I don't want to break up with you, George but do I have an option now?"

George's heart starts to throb, and he thinks of how to term it a prank so she could return to her normal self. But, just like Kimberly, Kellie doesn't like pranks but she likes to prank people.

"Kellie! It's all fine. Okay?" George moves near her on the ground. "You can't be hurt."

Kellie doesn't say anything, her head still remains buried in her shirt. Suddenly, she lifts up her head, making George gasp multiple times, and she pecks him on his chin at once."

"Huh..." Festus covers his face with his two hands. "... the fuck is this?"

"Thank you, George. I know you're a good mate. I expected you to vex or vent when I said that but you didn't. Thank you again." Kellie sobs, as George moves near more, and hugs her tightly.

"That's George for you." He says. "I'll always be there for my mate."

Then, he frees himself from the hug and unusually, many thought rush into his mind, making him raise his right palm in air, meaning, "no one should talk. I Might be In a mind link."

First thought is about those that have gone for food, they've been here bickering about one thing or the other while those have gone. Even Alfred has joined them, he doesn't know what's up. So he tells his mind about that thought that he would mind link Alfred and know what's really happening.

The second thought comes into his mind when he remembers how Clarissa was rubbing his machine and giving him a blowjob. Making him cum, she undressed and didn't even feel ashamed while Kellie doesn't even want his hands on her blossoms not to talk of undressing in front of him. He thinks about this, because he just promised to her that he would always be there for her. That's not true as he's started to regard Clarissa as his second mate, whether Kellie knows or not. Coupled with that, as confirmed by Kelvin and said by Kellie, he now knows that his powers are also reflecting with Clarissa and not Kellie.
