The Temptress: Tempting the Devil’s son

CHAPTER 30: Run Riri, Run!



“How did that happen?!” He demanded.

She explained everything to him in tears and she could hear him growling in anger. Forest pack? That forest was haunted by him. Was she actually expecting him to show up and kill the love of his life? That bitch!

He was so mad that his eyes flashed red repeatedly. It took all of his might to control himself from going over to their house and ripping Jackie to shreds.

He couldn’t overlook this anymore, she had been stepping on his toes for a long time, now it was time to bite back! He was gonna make her pay!

Anyone who dares or plots to hurt her, he would tear to pieces and Jackie was no exception!

“Don’t worry, mom, I’ll find her and bring her home.” He assured.

Somehow his words made her feel hopeful again. She knew that whenever he made a promise, he always fulfilled it and she had no doubt in her heart that he would find her.

“Thank you,” she sobbed.

“It’s alright.” Once she ended the call, she couldn’t help but smile. She slumped on the bed feeling joyful again.

“What did he say?” Nate asked, wondering why she was smiling at a time like this.

“He said he would find her and I know he would, so I have no reason to be sad anymore,” she pouted.

“You know you put too much faith in that boy.” He frowned.

“He is special, I knew from the very first day I set my eyes on him.” She mumbled. The frown on his face deepened upon hearing this.

“Are you jealous?” She smirked. “He’s my daughter boyfriend, you don’t think I would actually dump you for him.”

“Anything can happen,” he shrugged.

“You know I love you, right? Come here, I wanna show you just how much I love you.” She smiled, signaling for him to join her on the bed.

“Doinne our daughter is missing, we shouldn’t be doing this…” He tried to protest but she pulled him on the bed.

“Relax, she would be fine. I trust Blake, he would save our daughter!” She mumbled, getting on his body and straddling him.

She reached for his zipper and was about to pull it down when a knock came on the door.

She cursed under her breath, getting off him and asking the person at the door to “come in.”

Vee sauntered into the room, her footsteps were sloppy and her eyes were droopy. She obviously just awakened from a deep sleep.

“Mom, what happened to Riri? Jackie told me that she would not be coming back, ever again?” She had a scared look on her face.

“She said that? Curse that bitch for saying that! I’ll put her in her place soon. Don’t worry baby, Riri is gonna be fine and would be back soon!”

“Really?” Her eyes lit up.

“Yes. And if you’re hungry, there’s food in the kitchen,” she told with a smile.

“Okay, mom. I’ll leave you two to continue from where you left off.” She winked, causing blood to rush up Nate’s cheeks.

Dionne was suddenly remembered of their school days. Nate was just like his daughter; Nerdy, a bookworm, easily bullied, naive and a virgin. She basically had to sit him down and teach him how to have sex! Lol.

It’s a shame that Riri had to take all of his qualities, sometimes, she wished she would have been more like her. Good thing Vee took after her.

“Make sure to shut the door, honey!” She smirked.

“Okay, mom and please make sure to give Riri and I a baby brother!” She giggled, shutting the door.

“What was that all about? We are not having another baby.” Nate said, color spreading to the rest part of his face.

“Yes, we are. Now, where were we?”

*****

Vee trotted into the kitchen, smiling. She met Jackie pouring out some apple juice in a glass cup.

“Why are you smiling? I told you your sister might be dead and you’re smiling, is that how much you hate her?” She questioned with confusion. Or could Riri have found her way out? What if the beast didn’t show up? Could she still be alive? She thought with apprehension.

No that can’t be, she must be dead! She has to die!

“Mom said Riri will be coming back soon and they also plan on granting us our long time request; giving us a baby brother!”

She chuckled. “You’re delusional. Your mom is just trying to make you feel better. Riri is dead!”

“She’s not dead! And I believe mom, she would never lie to me!” She yelled, storming out of the kitchen.

“Well, we’ll see! The only thing that will be coming back is her corpse!” A sinister smile appeared on her lips as she sipped from her apple juice.

Blake dropped his phone on the table, glowering into space in anger.

“What happened?” Emily questioned, leaning against the door.

“Riri is missing. I’m gonna look for her,” he said, casually sitting on a gym bench. He closed his eyes and emptied his thoughts.

“I don’t suppose you would do that by just sitting?” She rolled her eyes. He groaned, she was breaking his concentration.

“She’s at forest park and that forest is enormous. I have to pinpoint her exact location so I can bring her home,” he explained.

“So, how are you gonna do that by sitting?”

“I’m trying to astral travel! Riri and I have a connection, I should be able to find her if I focus hard enough.” He closed his eyes yet again.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Oh. Is that the thing you do when you just sit there unconscious and someone winds up dead?”

“Yes. Normally I shouldn’t be able to kill anyone in that state but because I’m Lucifer’s son, I can do anything I want.”

“Never knew you could do that. What about…”

“And it requires lots of concentration and quietness!” He gritted.

“I guess that’s my cue to shut up.” She mumbled zipping her mouth and throwing the keys.

“Thanks.” He closed his eyes once more, regaining his concentration.

About a minute later, his eyes opened. He looked pissed, he obviously didn’t like what he saw.

“I found her. I’d better leave.” He vanished.

“I would never get used to that!”

He reappeared again. “On a second thought, I’d better take my car along. I don’t want us having to trek home.” He rushed out of the gym.

“Great idea! Why trek when you can just disappear?” She yelled after him.

“Cause I don’t want her asking too many questions, you know that mom!”

“Whatever!”

*****

Riri was seated on a small rock she had found earlier. She was dejected, hopeless and tired. She thought of her mom and dad, they would be worried.

How do I get out of this place? Her throat was itchy and dry, she was mad thirsty. She rubbed her arms, in an attempt to produce enough heat. She was so cold and she cursed herself for not bringing a sweater.

From a distance, she heard the howling of a wolf. She became frightened. She had never seen a wolf up close before. What if it came to attack her?

Soon she heard the padding of footsteps. And then, three big grey woloves emerged from the bushes.

They began snarling and growling at her. Frightened, she rose to her feet, taking several steps backwards. The only thought that came to her mind was running, but she knew she couldn’t outrun them. Was this how she was gonna die?

No! She wasn’t gonna die without a fight! She would never become food to them. She began throwing stones at them hoping that it would scare them off. This only seemed to anger them even more as their snarls became even deadly.

When they began snapping and lunging towards her, she couldn’t control her legs anymore as the only thing they could do was run!

Her legs suddenly caught a root causing her to trip on dead fall.

Before she could rise to her feet, the wolves lunged at her and in that very moment her life came flashing before her very eyes.

…..

Omg! Is she gonna die? Find out in the next chapter.
